When I am connected to a 100Mbps/1Gbps wired LAN and the computer exits Q Sleep/hibernation mode, a message appears informing you of a connection to a 10Mbps/100Mbps wired LAN. A When the computer exits standby/hibernate mode, restoring the network takes about 3 seconds. When the network is restored, it operates at 100Mbps/1Gbps.
Wireless Network (WLAN) Related Q I cannot find an AP. ► Check the Wireless LAN LED. A Check if the Wireless LAN LED is on. If off, click the MENU button and select Wireless LAN ON to turn the Wireless LAN on. ► Reinstall the driver. A Reinstall the driver using the software media. ► Check the Wireless Zero Configuration (WZC) service.
► A1 A2 ► A ► A1 A2 on ‘View available wireless networks’. If wireless networks are found, it indicates that the device is operating properly but the network settings may have a problem. Please check the Network Key (Encryption Key) and the AP settings. Check if there is a device nearby using the same frequency band. If there is a device nearby using the same frequency band such as another wireless LAN device, wireless video transceiver, microwave oven, plasma bulb, etc., channel interference may occur.
A3 Check if the AP firmware is the latest version. (For more information on the AP firmware, ask the AP manufacturer or your product provider.) A4 Check if the AP is properly connected to the network. Connect the LAN cable from the AP to a computer and check if the network is connected properly.
