Question about Linksys WPC54G Wireless-G Notebook Adapter V2.0 (WPC54C)
What do I need to do to correct this problem?
The network key which you entered may not be correct, or the adapter may not be installed properly.. , type the n/w key in key 1 and not under passpharse and then check.. that would fix the problem..

An Access point is to add Wireless to a LAN. (which is ok if you have a Router connected to your LAN). if you have no Router, and only have an ADSL/Cable modem connected to a PC then you should have got a Router +ADSL/Cable modem instead of an Access point. you can get routers like this which also have wireless, so you get all the functionality in 1 box Here is a Wireless router, with hub and ADSL +Cable Support

my appologies this router does not appear to have a DSL modem as part of the product, sorry, The text is rather misleading. you will most likely need to get one with an ADSL or cable modem, if you need to access the internet

SOURCE: You are connected to access point but the internet cannot be found.
Do you have a connection wizard that you can run on your computer? Linksys offers them for downloading at their website. Try that -
have you named your home network so your wireless connection can "find" it? You don't mention how your main computer is networked in. A wireless adapter for a notebook will need to have a Linksys connection wizard run on the laptop.
If you have a Linksys router connected to your main computer, it should already have the piece of software you need. Most likely, you'll need to put it on a flash drive and install it from that onto your laptop. the wizard helps also to diagnose the right settings.
If you want to post what you are using for your main network (linksys router?) and which operating systems you are using, that will help.
For example, in Vista, you'll need to enable the option for "network discovery" under your laptop's control panel/network and sharing center.
You also need to have certain settings on your main computer for the wireless to work - there are two main types of wireless connections - B and G. Most of today's routers and cards will do both, but if you have an older router, it might not be set up to handle the newer or combined types. They run on different frequencies, so your laptop might not be "reading" your router's frequency.Also, if you have other wireless/radio frequency equipment near your laptop, it can interfere with the signal being received right.
You also need to be sure that your firewall allows the linksys system to access your computer (allowed programs).

usually the problem like this was cause by unupdated firmware of either you wireless card or router. check the manufacturer of both devices and check the website if there is any updated firmware of both. you will also find instructions on how to upgrade the firmware on the manufacturer website.

I'm using a wpc54gs (ver1.1)adapter in my Toshiba Portege 3500 TABLET and can connect for a very short time when running the SpeedBooster setup. Then the signal drops completely, or no internet.
