[FTC]: Couldn't connect to Samantha

[sericon_bang]

I have configured the router, flashed the Samantha with network keys, and installed the FCS as told by the FTC documents. But the Samantha's NXT lead indicator blinks every 4.75 seconds while the power indicator is solid and the WI-FI indicator blinks, and the FCS couldn't see the Samantha.

As a rookie team, we tried our best to resolve this but no luck.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The flashing white light indicates the samantha has the right password to connect to your router. Did you set the router to Wireless B only? For some routers, you also need to set the wireless data rate and transmission speed to 2 Mbps.

Yes, I set the Wireless B only. The router I am using is Linksys E1200.

Here are a few other ideas:

1. Did you change the router IP address to 192.168.2.1?
2. Did you set the Internet Connection Type to Automatic Configuration - DHCP?
3. Can you run the samostat program on your NXT brick? What is the IP address?
