Netgear R6300 Manual Do Utilizador

This section describes tips for troubleshooting some common problems.

When you need to restart your network, follow this sequence:

Turn off and unplug the modem. 

Turn off the router.

Plug in the modem and turn it on. Wait two minutes.

Turn on the router and wait two minutes.

Make sure that the wireless settings in the computer and router match exactly. 

For a wirelessly connected computer, the wireless network name (SSID) and wireless 
security settings of the router and wireless computer need to match exactly. 

If you set up an access list in the Advanced Wireless Settings screen, you have to add 
each wireless computer’s MAC address to the router’s access list.

Make sure that the network settings of the computer are correct. 

Wired and wirelessly connected computers need to have network (IP) addresses on the 
same network as the router. The simplest way to do this is to use computers that obtain 
an IP address automatically with DHCP. Most computers are set up this way.

Some cable modem service providers require you to use the MAC address of the 
computer initially registered on the account. You can view the MAC address in the 

Attached Devices screen.

After you turn on power to the router, the following sequence of events should occur:

When power is first applied, verify that the Power LED 

 is lit.

Verify that the Power LED lights amber within a few seconds, indicating that the self-test is 
running.

After approximately 30 seconds, verify the following:

The Power LED is lit solid green.

The Internet LED is lit.
