Wireless Access Point Setup
The OLPC Support Team has been gathering notes and configuration tips
for various Wireless Access Point (WAP) connectivity. We are actively
working to resolve minor compatibility issues with various Wireless
Access points.
Some key setup considerations for your Wireless Access Point are:
* A single channel should be selected, not "Automatic"
* Preferred Channels are 1, 6, and 11
* The wireless network mode should be "Mixed" or "Wireless-G", not
"Disabled" or "Other"
* If Wireless MAC Filtering is enabled, the MAC address for the XO
must be entered
* The latest Firmware should loaded on your access point
* Make sure that there are only alphanumeric characters and no
spaces in your WAP's SSID
If there's a Trac ticket, someone else filed it. If there isn't, should
I, given that the documentation says this?
