Hardware Solutions

My computer is experiencing difficulty connecting to the wireless

network.

! Ensure that your wireless access point/wireless router is powered

on and that the Wireless LED is lit.

! Check your cable connections to ensure they are tight and

secured.

! Ensure that your LEDs are not lit Red or not at all. For further

information about LED descriptions, see Section 1: Overview.

SECTION 4 TROUBLESHOOTING

4-2 SECTION 4, TROUBLESHOOTING

! Ensure that you are using Ethernet cables and not telephone

cables between the WE800G and your computer. Ethernet cables

use a wider RJ-45 style plug using 8 wires where telephone style

plugs use the smaller RJ-11 style plug using 4 to 6 wires.

The plug on the left is RJ-45; the plug on the right is RJ-11 – use only

RJ-45.

! Check the System Tray at the bottom right of your display to see

an icon that looks like a monitor. You can click on this to

see the status of your WE800G. Also in Start > Settings > Control

Panel > Network and Dial-Up Connections, you can examine the

state of your Ethernet connection with the WE800G. Make sure

“Show icon in task bar when connected” is checked.

! Ensure that your WE800G is within range of your wireless access

point/wireless router or is not behind an obstruction. For example,

metal structures may interfere with the signal, as will 2.4 GHz

cordless phones, and microwaves.

! Ensure that your wireless access point/wireless router’s antenna

and your WE800G antenna are connected.

Software Solutions

I cannot access the Configuration Utility for the unit.

! Verify your Ethernet connection to the WE800G.

! Verify that you are using the correct version of Internet Explorer

or Netscape (Internet Explorer must be above version 5.2).

! Verify that the IP address of the PC being used to configure the

router is on the same network as the router’s configuration IP

address. The default IP address of WE800G is 192.168.30.1. If

after initial set up, the PC that’s used to configure the WE800G

has been assigned a different IP address by DHCP or assigned a

different static IP address which is not on the same 192.168.30.x

network, it may be necessary to do one of the following two

things:

! If the WE800G configuration utility needs to be accessed

“on-the-fly”. Write down the PC’s current IP address.

Temporarily change the PC’s IP address to static

192.168.30.10 (or something similar). Log into the WE800G.

Set the WE800G’s network address to DHCP or to a static

address that will be on the same network as the PC’s current

IP address and not a duplicate of any others on the network.

Record the new WE800G IP address (in case of DHCP, it can

be retrieved from the access point/wireless router after the

WE800G has restarted.) Restore the PC’s IP configuration.

Use the recorded new WE800G IP address to access the

WE800G configuration utility.

! If the WE800G configuration utility only needs to be accessed

occasionally: Temporarily change the PC’s IP address to

static 192.168.30.10 (or something similar). Log into the

WE800G. After configuring the WE800G, log out. Restore the

PC’s IP configuration.

! Verify you are entering the correct URL in the browser. The

default is http://192.168.30.1. If you think you have changed the

IP address used to configure the WE800G and cannot remember

it, you must reset the unit back to factory defaults. To do this,

press and hold the reset button for more the 5 seconds. This

clears the WE800G user settings, including User ID, Password,

IP Address, and Subnet mask.

! Once the WE800G is reset to factory default, re-verify the

Ethernet connectivity and IP address issues.

My WE800G cannot associate with the wireless access point/router.

! Ensure that your WE800G and the wireless access

point/wireless router have the same security settings that

enable your computer to access the wireless network.

Section 2: Configure Your Wireless Security Settings

describes how to adjust security settings. Some of the key

settings are:

! ESS Auth Mode (Open versus Pre-Shared Key (PSK))

! Encryption status (none, 64WEP, 128WEP)

! Content of Passphrase if the Passphrase option is

selected

! Active key (1-4 for 64WEP, 1-2 for 128WEP)

! Actual key value for the current active key

! SSID. The WE800G must have the exact SSID as the

wireless access point/wireless router. For Motorola

wireless access points or wireless routers, the default

SSID is “motorola xyz”, where “xyz” is the last three digits

of the wireless access point/wireless router’s MAC

address. The SSID is case sensitive. Make sure there are

no trailing spaces.

The WE800G must be set to match the wireless access

point/wireless router for those settings

! As a suggestion, it may be easier to set the wireless access

point/wireless router’s security to open system and no encryption

and set the WE800G accordingly. After making sure the WE800G

can work under this condition, turn on the security features on the

wireless access point/wireless router and then turn on the

security features on the WE800G and try again.

I would like to see if my Internet connection is alive.

For this, you will use the ping command to test the connection.

Before attempting, ensure that Obtain an IP address automatically

has been selected in the computer’s settings and that you have an

IP address assigned. Refer to the configuration information that came

with your router.

1 Open a command prompt by clicking Start and Run.

! For Windows 98 and ME, in the Open field, type command

and press Enter or OK.

! For Windows 2000 and XP, type cmd.

! Or, navigate using your Start button to

Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt.

2 In the Command window, type ipconfig.

! You should see an IP address for your network adapter:

Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection:

Connectionspecific DNS Suffix.: Example.example.example.com.

IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.30.2

Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.30.1

3 If using a router at home, in the Command window, type ping

followed by the Router’s IP address and press Enter. For

example type: ping 192.168.30.1.

The router’s IP address is most likely the default gateway.

! If you receive a reply (the first word will be Reply…), then

your computer is connected to the router. Proceed to Step 4.

! If you do NOT receive a reply, try from a different computer to

verify that the first PC is not the cause of the problem.

4 In the Command window, type ping and your ISP’s default

gateway and press Enter. For example type: ping 192.168.30.1.

! If you receive a reply (It might look something like this: Reply

from 216.109.125.72…), then your connection to the Internet

is alive and well. You can verify the ISP’s IP by referring to

documentation that came with your wireless access

point/wireless router.

! If you do NOT receive a reply, try from a different computer to

verify that the first PC is not the cause of the problem.
