8.2 The Radio Network Is Not Displayed

When the WLAN adapter is configured, the radio network
"FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7050" is not displayed.
Checking the WLAN Adapter Settings
Make sure that the network mode "Infrastructure" is set rath-
er than "Ad-hoc" in the WLAN software you use to configure
the WLAN adapter.
In the Windows XP WLAN software this setting is configured
using the "Advanced" button on the "Wireless Networks"
settings page in the "Wireless Network Connection Proper-
ties" window. In the "Advanced" window, select the setting
"Access point (infrastructure) networks only".
If the radio network is still not displayed, continue with the
next item.

2. Open the "System / Reset" menu.
3. Click the "Restart FRITZ!Box and Load Factory Settings"
button.
4. Clear the LAN or USB connection again (by removing the

nection again.
If this attempt is unsuccessful, continue as follows:
1. Establish a connection to FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN again via
the LAN or USB port and open the user interface.
