[No.1 - No.7] / 1
No.1 I configured the 128bit encryption manually to set the wireless connections among BB-HCM371, KX-HCM170 and BB-HGW700, but the only KX-HCM170 was not connected. [Setup: wireless]

Answer...

[Cause] Other than "Key1" is selected for the WEP key on the BB-HGW700 and BB-HCM371, but only "Key1" is supported for the 128bit WEP key on the KX-HCM170. [Solution] Select "Key1" for the 128bit WEP key on the BB-HGW700 and BB-HCM371 when setting manually.

No.2 I set the BB-HCM371 and the KX-HCM170 up to make the wireless connections to the router, but I cannot access the KX-HCM170. [Setup: wireless]

Answer...

[Cause1] If the standard key differs between the KX-HCM170 and the router, then "Key1" is selected for the router's 128bit WEP key. [Measures1] Set the same WEP key as the router's "Key1" on the KX-HCM170, and set the standard key to "Key1" on the router. [Cause2] The method of transforming the encryption key from alphanumeric characters to hexadecimal characters differs between the KX-HCM170 and the router. [Measures2] Set the same encryption key as the KX-HCM170 in hexadecimal characters on the router.

No.3 The wireless device cannot be connected. [Setup: wireless]

Answer...

[Cause1] Check the PC wireless LAN card's communication mode to Infrastructure. The device-specific SSID and 128-bit encryption key are set in factory default. The default SSID and 128 bit encryption key are displayed on the rear of this product. [Solution1] Set the same SSID and 128-bit encryption key as those on the wireless devices connected to this product. [Cause2] Is the wireless network mode set to "802.11a" on the wireless device? [Solution2] Set the wireless network mode to 802.11b or 802.11g. [Cause3] It is possible that this product or the wireless device may be out of range, or there is a wall or other obstacle in between them. [Solution3] Move them closer together. [Note:] If you will operate this product in the repeater mode, restart the wireless device after this product and BB-HGW700 were turned on. If you will not use BB-HGW700 and/or use other router, you can operate this product in the access point mode. [Solution4] If the network configuration was changed, for example the connection between the device and this product was changed form wireless LAN to fixed LAN, restart this product.

Answer...

Make sure a PC in a wireless network is set as follows: Wireless mode: Infrastructure SSID: HGW600 Encryption: None The wireless devices or the KX-HGW600 may be out of range. Or there may be an obstacle such as a concrete wall. Locate the wireless devices near this unit. Make sure Permit is checked in the Blanked SSID connection on the Wireless Setup window.

No.5 The wireless link between KX-HCM170 and the wireless router (BB-HGW700 etc.) disconnects after a short time. [Setup: wireless] [Troubleshoot: KX_HCM]
(2004/08/16)

Answer...

[Cause] Other wireless devices are interfering with the camera's wireless signal, obstacles are interfering with the wireless signal, or the characteristics of the wireless LAN chip differ between the KX-HCM170 and the wireless router. [Solution] Download the firmware (version 1.81 or later) and update the KX-HCM170.

No.6 When selecting the channel 12~14 for the wireless connection between the camera and the camera control unit, the PC cannot connect to the camera control unit. [Setup: wireless] [Troubleshoot: HGW600] [Troubleshoot: BB_HGW700]

Answer...

Some PCs compliant with the Centrino Mobile Technology do not support the channel 12~14. Confirm the specification of your PC and select the channel 11 and under.

No.7 When using the camera control unit as a wireless access point, the wireless communication among the Windows XP PCs is disconnected frequently. [Setup: wireless] [Troubleshoot: HGW600] [Troubleshoot: BB_HGW700]
(2003/07/29)

Answer...

[Cause] It is possible there are access points configured on the wireless setup tool of the Windows XP. [Solution] Remove the access points (except for the camera control unit). The Windows XP will attempt to connect to the camera control unit's access point.
