New chartplotters typically support AIS function.
Be sure your chartplotter has the latest firmware update.
Ensure the baud rate for the inbound NMEA port on the chartplotter is matched. |

If the router provides IPv6 connection, you can only use VPN Server as an OpenVPN server. The other types of VPN (i.e. PPTP and L2TP/IPSec) are not supported under an IPv6 environment.
TCP Server: When in TCP Server Mode, WideLink will wait until a TCP connection request has been initiated. Once a TCP connection has been initiated and established, WideLink transmits the data through to the corresponding serial port. This mode is useful when users want to send data from WideLink to a remote server.
TCP Client: should be used when the WideLink wants to send data to a remote location on a network. The Device Server will try to establish a TCP connection with the remote server through its TCP port. Once a TCP session is established between the two, the Device Server will send data to the server. This mode comes in handy when the Serial Device needs to send data from the serial port to a remote location. |

As the administrator, log in to WideLink Network configuration via wired connection and go to System Configuration Wireless Network to find out the Wi-Fi SSID and password.
To reset the password simply re-type a new one. |

Check if the device is too far away from the router or if there in any obstacle/electrical signal source that may interrupt the Wi-Fi connection.
Check if your wireless device is connected to the Wi-Fi network hosted by WideLink. If the device is not in the router’s local network, you cannot access WideLink via xxx.xxx.xxx or its local IP address.
Move your wireless device closer to the routers and reconnect again. |

Weak Wi-Fi signal may come from the following reason:
The WideLink is too far from the client devices.
There might be intervening barriers (e.g. large expanses of metal) that can block Wi-Fi signals.
Nearby devices (e.g. microwaves/wireless phones) using the same frequency band may interfere with the router’s 2.4GHz Wi-Fi transmission.
To improve Wi-Fi signal strength, you may try the following solutions:
Ensure the Wi-Fi antenna is properly attached to WideLink.
Relocate your router to the center of the area where the client devices are placed, or to a position where the WideLink and the devices are within a visible distance without interfering barriers. However, the two locations may not always work, and you may try other locations to find out the best WideLink placement.
Substitute WideLink default Wi-Fi 2dBi antenna with a higher gain Wi-Fi antenna. |
