Some Clients not Connecting

ZaneDonaldson

All,

 

I have an XG firewall with AP55 units, 2 of them.  from time to time, certain clients will not connect to the wireless networks.  they can see the networks and are prompted for keys, but wont connect.  

 

in the XG interface, I can see the clients.  the signal strength is good, usually over 80%, but the speed shows 1.0Mbit/S on the 2.4GHz band.  

 

I have several other clients using the same operating system (Windows 7) that are connecting just fine.

 

any tips would be appreciated

    two things I see that seem strange:  

     

    1. the ip address.  this machine isn't connected to the wireless network yet, so I wouldn't expect that it would have an assigned ip address.  Also, ipconfig on the client does not show an ip address assigned to the wireless adapter

     

    2. the TX Rate is 1 Mbit/S:  is that maybe just the default speed that it reports prior to the client fully completing the connection to the network?  seems odd to me.
