1. If you cannot open the wireless monitor utility, make sure that the PCI
adapter is inserted firmly into the PCI slot.
2. If you cannot connect to the wireless router, you may want to double check
the wireless security settings on the router. The security key you entered in
step 2.2 must match with the settings on the wireless router.
3. If you are experiencing problems with the connection such as low signal
strength, slow connection speed, or unstable wireless connection, you can try
to tune your router’s signal by changing the channels on the router and/or by
adjusting the direction of the antenna(s). You do not need to change the
channel on the Adapter; it will automatically pick up the new channel after you
reboot the router. Your router has 11 different channels to choose from. Keep
going through the channels until you find one that gives you a stable connection.
For instructions on changing channels, refer to the documentation that comes
with the router.
