6-2 Troubleshooting
Draft 1, 01 Feb 05
The wireless USB print server has no power
• Make sure the power cord is connected to the wireless USB print server.
• Make sure the power adapter is connected to a functioning power outlet. If it is in a power
strip, make sure the power strip is turned on. If it is plugged directly into the wall, verify that it
is not a switched outlet.
• Make sure you are using the correct NETGEAR power adapter supplied with your wireless
USB print server.
No lights are lit on the wireless USB print server
It takes a few seconds for the status light to be lit. Wait a minute and check the status light
on the wireless USB print server.

The print server is not found
Make sure you can access the Internet or other places on your network from your computer. If you
cannot, then troubleshoot your computer or network connectivity.
If you are running a software firewall, disable it. This includes the Windows XP firewall — which
may have been turned on during Windows upgrade or installation without you being aware of it.
