Network Problems

Wireless Connections
If the wireless network connection is lost —
The wireless router is offline or wireless has
been disabled on the computer.
• Check your wireless router to ensure it is
powered on and connected to your data
source (cable modem or network hub).
• Interference may be blocking or interrupting
your wireless connection. Try moving the
computer closer to your wireless router.
• Re-establish your connection to the
wireless router (see "Setting Up a Wireless
Connection" on page XX).
Wired Connections
If the wired network connection is lost — The
cable is loose or damaged.
• Check the cable to ensure it is plugged in
and not damaged.
The link integrity light on the integrated network
connector lets you verify that your connection is
working and provides information on the status:
• Green — A good connection exists between
a 10-Mbps network and the computer.
• Orange — A good connection exists between
a 100/1000-Mbps network and the computer.
• Off — The computer is not detecting a
physical connection to the network.
NOTE: The link integrity light on the network
connector is only for the wired network
connection. The link integrity light does not
provide status for wireless connections.
