If the signal strength is poor or you cannot
log on, the most probable causes are that your
computer is out of range of the base or that the
base is not switched on. Check that the base
was properly set-up by following instructions
in this user guide and move closer to the base.
If you still cannot log on to the base, see ‘Help’
page 48. (See page 20 for more information on
using the BT On-Air Monitor.)
