Interference can also cause Internet connection problems. Signals that are 
transmitted between the base station and a wireless adapter can be affected by 
interference from other wireless devices—including 2.4 gigahertz (GHz) cordless 
phones, microwave ovens, and neighboring wireless networks. Move the other 
devices further from your wireless networking hardware as needed, and refrain from 
using them while you are using the network. To minimize interference from another 
wireless network, try changing channels. For more information about configuring 
your wireless settings, see Chapter 4, “Network Management.” 
For more information about range issues, see “Recommendations for Best Wireless 
Performance” in Help for the Broadband Network Utility. 
O
Verify that you are using the correct wireless settings. You might have incomplete 
or incorrect wireless settings for your adapter. To connect successfully, the wireless 
adapter on your computer must have the same network name (SSID), wireless 
channel, and wireless security (such as Wireless Equivalent Privacy [WEP]) 
information as your base station. To check the wireless settings on your Microsoft 
base station, open the Base Station Management Tool (located within the 
Broadband Network Utility). You can also access the base station directly through 
your Internet browser by going to the address http://192.168.1.2. Then you can 
view and, if necessary, correct your Microsoft wireless adapter settings by opening 
Computer Settings from the Tools menu of the Broadband Network Utility. 
O
Reset your broadband modem. Turn off the modem for 5 to 10 seconds. Restart 
the modem, and wait for it to connect to your ISP. After the status lights on your 
modem indicate that it is connected, and the status lights on your base station 
show that you have a working wide area network (WAN) connection, try accessing 
the Internet from your computer again. 
O
Reset your base station, gateway, or router. Turn off or unplug the base station, 
wait at least 10 seconds, and turn it back on again. Let the base station reset itself. 
When the status lights indicate that the base station is functioning, try accessing 
the Internet from the wireless computer again. 
O
Update your base station firmware. Firmware is the software that is loaded into 
your base station to provide network functions. You can update your base station 
firmware by downloading it from the Internet and installing it on your base station. If 
you are using a Microsoft base station, make sure that you are using the latest 
firmware version.  
To update Microsoft base station firmware  
1. Double-click the Broadband Network Utility icon on your taskbar to start  
the utility. 
2. On the Help menu, click Check for Updates Online.  
3. If there is a newer version of the firmware available, follow the instructions on 
the Web page to download the new software, firmware, or drivers.
