This document provides solutions to common problems
encountered with the Broadband Router.Wireless
Please refer to this guide before contacting Sony
Customer Information Services.
The PCWA-AR300 consists of:
• Broadband Router Unit PCWA-R1
• Wireless LAN Access Point PCWA-A320
In this document, we refer to the Broadband Router Unit as the
Router Unit and to the Wireless LAN Access Point as the
Wireless Unit.
Preparations
Case 1 No communication between the computer and
Wireless Broadband Router
1Was your computer properly configured for wireless
communication?
When using the Access Point functions under factory default settings, configure the computer as
follows.
The factory default settings of the Access Point function are:
• Network Name (SSID):
The 6-character identifier printed on the label inside the rear cover of the Wireless Unit
• Encryption (WEP):
Disabled
With the Windows Me and Windows 2000 operating systems, perform setup as described in the
documentation of the Wireless LAN PC Card.
With the Windows XP operating system, proceed as follows.
1
Click “Start”, and then click “Control Panel”.
2
In “Control Panel”, double-click “Network Connections”.
Note
If “Network Connections” does not appear, click “Switch to Classic View”.
3
In the “Network Connections” window, right-click the icon of the wireless network to
which you want to connect, and click “View Available Wireless Networks”.
4
In the “Connect to Wireless Network” dialog box, select the Access Point from
“Available Wireless Networks”, and click “Connect”. (When using the Access Point
functions under factory default settings, check the 6-character identifier printed on
the label inside the rear cover of the Wireless Unit.)
2Are the Network Name (SSID) and Data Encryption (WEP)
settings configured correctly?
To connect to the Access Point, the Network Name (SSID) and Data Encryption (WEP) settings
must be the same at the computer and the Access Point.
z Hint
When using the Access Point functions under factory default settings, use the settings listed in above.1
With the Windows Me and Windows 2000 operating systems, verify the Access Point Network
Name (SSID) and Data Encryption (WEP) settings of the Wireless LAN PC Card as described in
its documentation.
With the Windows XP operating system, proceed as follows to verify the settings.
