Appendix A How do I reset the Access Point? Press the Reset button on the back of the Access Point for about ten seconds. This will reset the unit to its default settings. How do I resolve issues with signal loss? There is no way to know the exact range of your wireless network without testing. Every obstacle placed between an Access Point and wireless PC will create signal loss. Leaded glass, metal, concrete floors, water, and walls will inhibit the signal and reduce range. Start with your Access Point and your wireless PC in the same room and move it away in small increments to determine the maximum range in your environment. You may also try using different channels, as this may eliminate interference affecting only one channel. Also, open the Access Point's Web-based Utility. Click the Wireless tab and then the Advanced Wireless tab. Make sure the Output Power is set to 100%. Does the Access Point function as a firewall? No. The Access Point is only a bridge from wired Ethernet to wireless clients. I have excellent signal strength, but I cannot see my network. Wireless security, such as WEP or WPA, is probably enabled on the Access Point, but not on your wireless adapter (or vice versa). Verify that the same wireless security settings are being used on all devices in your wireless network. What is the maximum number of users the Access Point can handle? No more than 65, but this depends on the volume of data and may be fewer if many users create a large amount of network traffic.
