If the wireless client adapter passes all tests, the test status will read “OK” in all
fields, and the Error Code field will remain blank. If an error occurs, click the
Advice button for more information on how to handle the error.
Troubleshooting Site Monitor
When the Site Monitor does not display (all of) the Base Stations that you
expected, this may be due to one or more of the following reasons:
! Your Client Manager station is “out-of-range” of the Base Stations that you
wish to monitor. Typically the values for signal level and SNR are ‘0’ (zero).
! A configuration mismatch of your Client Manager station, for example:
" Your Client Manager station uses a specific network name that
does not match the name of the infrastructure that you wish to
monitor.
" Your Client Manager station uses the network name “ANY”, and
when it was powered up, the station erroneously connected to the
Base Station of a neighboring network because that Base Station
provided the best level of SNR.
! The infrastructure that you wish to monitor has been “Closed” to wireless
IEEE 802.11 compliant devices that try to establish a radio connection
using:
" The network name “ANY”, or
" A zero-string SSID (the equivalent of the network name “ANY”).
When your Client Manager station uses the network name “ANY”, you can use
the
Selection tab to see other networks as described on Selection Tab.
For more information on “open” and “closed” infrastructure networks, please
consult Security.
NOTE:
Running the card test will disrupt the normal operation of your wireless client adapter, which
may result in a temporary loss of your connection to the network.
