Troubleshooting
2. The wireless client cannot access the Internet in the Infrastructure mode.
Make  sure  the  wireless  client  is  associated  and  joined  with  the 
correct router. To check this connection: Right-click on the Local Area 
Connection icon in the taskbar> select View Available Wireless Networks. 
The Connect  to  Wireless  Network  screen  will  appear.    Please  make 
sure  you  have  selected  the  correct  available  network,  as  shown  in 
the illustrations below.
Check that the IP Address assigned to the wireless adapter is within the 
same IP Address range as the gateway. (Since the DI-614+ has an IP 
Address of 192.168.0.1, wireless adapters must have an IP Address in 
the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x. Each device must have a unique IP 
Address; no two devices may have the same IP Address. The subnet 
mask  must  be  the  same  for  all  the  computers  on  the  network.) To 
check the IP Address assigned to the wireless adapter, double-click on 
the Local Area Connection icon in the taskbar > select the Support tab 
and the IP Address will be displayed. (Please refer to Checking the IP 
Address in the Networking Basics section of this manual.)
If it is necessary to assign a Static IP Address to the wireless adapter, 
please refer to the appropriate section in Networking Basics. If you are 
entering a DNS Server address you must also enter the Default Gateway 
Address.  (Remember  that  if  you  have  a  DHCP-capable  router,  you 
will  not  need  to  assign  a  Static  IP  Address.  See   Networking  Basics: 
Assigning a Static IP Address.)
