and provides instructions for using several IP utilities to diagnose problems.
Contact Customer Support if these suggestions do not resolve the problem.

Problem

Troubleshooting Suggestion

LEDs
Power LED does not illuminate

after product is turned on.

Verify that you are using the power cable provided with the device and

that it is securely connected to the ADSL Router and a wall

socket/power strip.

LINK WAN LED does not illuminate

after phone cable is attached.

Verify that a standard telephone cable is securely connected to the

ADSL port and your wall phone jack. Wait 30 seconds to allow the

device to negotiate a connection with your ISP.

LINK LAN LED does not illuminate

after Ethernet cable is attached.

Verify that the Ethernet cable is securely connected to your LAN hub or

PC and to the ADSL Router. Make sure the PC and/or hub is turned on.
Verify that you are using correct cable.

DIAG LED stays illuminated after

turning the device on.

The DIAG LED should turn off after about 10-15 seconds. If it does not,

turn off the ADSL Router, wait 10 seconds, and then turn it back on.

Internet Access
PC cannot access Internet

Use the ping utility to check whether your PC can communicate with

the ADSL Router’s LAN IP address (by default 192.168.1.1). If it cannot,

check the Ethernet cabling.
If you statically assigned a private IP address to the computer, (not a
registered public address), verify the following:

•

Check that the gateway IP address on the computer is your public IP
address. If it is not, correct the address or configure the PC to

receive IP information automatically.

•

Verify with your ISP that the DNS server specified for the PC is valid.
Correct the address or configure the PC to receive this information

automatically.

•

Verify that a NAT rule has been defined on the ADSL Router to
translate the private address to your public IP address.

PCs cannot display Web pages on

the Internet.

Verify that the DNS server specified on the PCs is correct for your ISP.

You can use the ping utility to test connectivity with your ISP’s DNS

server.

Configuration Manager Program
You forgot/lost your Configuration

Manager username or password.

You can reset the device to the default configuration by pressing the

Reset button for 3 times on the back panel of the device (using a

pointed object such as a paper clip). Then, type the default username

and password admin/admin.
WARNING: Resetting the device removes any custom settings and
returns all settings to their default values.
