Wireless Problems - HP Compaq Presario,Presario 1110 Reference Manual

If the computer won't boot from the floppy disk drive
•
Make sure the floppy disk drive is selected as the boot device—see "To change the
boot device" on page 28.
•
If you're using a USB floppy drive, use the BIOS Setup utility to make sure Legacy
USB Support is enabled—see "To run the BIOS Setup utility" on page 118. If your
computer also has a built-in floppy drive, use the BIOS Setup utility Boot menu to
make sure the USB floppy drive is the first device under Removable Drive.
If the computer stops responding after booting
• Check whether you are connected to a TCP/IP network with no DHCP server. This
can cause a long delay at startup because DHCP is enabled. Contact your network
administrator to determine the proper TCP/IP configuration.
If the computer takes a long time to resume after being suspended
• The computer can routinely take a minute or more to resume if it has a network card
installed. While the operating system is loading drivers and checking hardware and
network connections, you will see a blinking cursor on your display. As soon as the
hardware has been re-initialized, the Windows desktop will appear.

Wireless Problems

If you have problems with wireless 802.11 communication
• Make sure the wireless indicator light is on.
• If your computer includes Bluetooth capabilities, make sure wireless 802.11
communication is turned on. Click Start, All Programs, Utilities, Wireless
Configuration, then click the 802.11 button if it's not turned on.
• Make sure you are using the correct SSID and channel settings—see "To prepare for
connections" on page 62.
• Make sure you are in range of an access point (for an infrastructure connection) or
other wireless computer (for an AdHoc connection).
