• Step 5: Test communications.
The following section describes one test method that can be used to verify a network connection has been
established.
Communication Testing
After installing the AWK-1121/1127 a simple test may be run against an AP to make sure the AWK-1121/1127
has properly established a wireless connection and is functioning normally. In the example below, an
AWK-3121 is used as the primary access point.
How to Test an AWK-1121/1127 for Network Connectivity
Connect an AP-configured AWK-3121 (or another access point) to Notebook A. Connect an AWK-1121/1127 to
Notebook B. Configure the AWK-1121/1127 and AWK-3121 for the same SSID, and set their IP addresses as
below.
After setting up the testing environment, open a DOS window on notebook B. At the prompt, type:
ping <IP address of notebook A>
and then press Enter. A “Reply from IP address …” response means the communication was successful. A
“Request timed out” response means the communication failed. In this case, be sure to first recheck the
configuration to make sure the connections are correct.
