Appendix A

Troubleshooting

This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.

Overview

This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the Wireless

Router and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the Wireless

Router still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.

General Problems

Problem 1:

Can't connect to the Wireless Router to configure it.

Solution 1:

Check the following:

• The Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connections are OK,

and it is powered ON.

•

Ensure that your PC and the Wireless Router are on the same network

segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)

•

If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP

client), restart it.

•

If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP

Address within the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 and thus

compatible with the Wireless Router's default IP Address of

192.168.1.254.

Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the

Wireless Router.

In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control Panel-

Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.

Internet Access

Problem 1:

When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.

Solution 1:

A number of things could be causing this. Try the following troubleshooting

steps.

•

Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP settings

are correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check the Network

Mask, Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP Address.

• If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check the

Wireless Router. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Connect to it and

check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the LAN and power

connections.)

•

If the Wireless Router is configured correctly, check your Internet

connection (DSL/Cable modem etc) to see that it is working correctly.
