Overview

Because small office/home office (SOHO) wireless networks do not have servers to perform automated configuration and verify authentication credentials, in many cases the configuration of wireless networks is done manually, which can introduce errors relating to mismatched authentication and encryption settings. Other issues such as signal interference and signal attenuation can also cause a lack of connectivity or intermittent connectivity problems. This article describes how to troubleshoot the most common issues with Microsoft® Windows® XP-based wireless connections on a SOHO network.
