Hi All
some customers had problems with WLAN here, these have been the reasons:
1. They did not do exactly what we had written in the turial
2. Incompatibility of WLAN routers or access points - in ALL cases a firmware update of these devices (eg of netgear devices) helped
To setup a connection between the ProfiLux (or better: the PLM-WLAN) and your PC a serial or LAN connection is NOT neccessary!
Here all important steps (in short form):
1. Maybe you did before some bad settings - then reset the WLAN-settings in the ProfiLux (with the keys). After reset a hardware reset (power off) is recommended.
2. Use "DeviceInstaller" to search the WLAN-ProfiLux (=WiPort)
IMPORTANT: This is only ad-hoc, directly from PC to Profilux, possible! Dont' use a WLAN-Router or access-point, use the PC-WLAN-card!
And disconnect any LAN-interfaces in your PC - they might confuse "DeviceInstaller". And for the time of the setup: Disable your WLAN-router and all other WLAN-devices.
3. Assign static IP-address to the WiPort
After that: Do your WLAN-settings and continue as in the tutorial described.
Please let me know at which point exactly you have the problems.
