| + | ====== PAL2.0 Connecting Issue ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | //Sometimes even if all of the settings are correct, PAL2.0 will still fail to acquire a correct **DHCP** lease. This could be deceptive, because **AIRLINK** may display that it's connected to PAL2.0 while retaining **PAL-INSTRUCTIONS IP**. This will prevent you from browsing.// | ||

| + | |||
| + | **Here are a few steps that can be taken in order to correct this problem:** | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== 1. Un-check automatic connection ===== | ||

| + | |||
| + | Go to **Applications**, **Utilities**, and finally **Keychain**. In **Keychain**, delete all of the certificates. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== 3. Remove old 802.1X profiles ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Go to **System Preferences**, **Network**, **Airport**, **Advanced**, **802.1X** and delete all the WPA: PAL2.0 User Profiles listed. This clears out old cached usernames/passwords. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ===== 4. Remove old connections ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Back to network settings, it is recommended that your wireless connection list/cache is clear before trying to connect to **PAL2.0**. If this to be avoided, make sure PAL2.0 is at the top above all other connections. Reboot. | ||
| + | |||
