LAN or Internet Port LEDs Not On

If either the LAN LEDs or Internet LED do not light when the Ethernet connection is made, check
the following:
Make sure that the Ethernet cable connections are secure at the router and at the hub or
workstation.
Make sure that power is turned on to the connected hub or workstation.
Be sure you are using the correct cable:
— When connecting the router's Internet port to a cable or DSL modem, use the cable that
was supplied with the cable or DSL modem. This cable could be a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable or an Ethernet crossover cable.

Troubleshooting the Web Configuration Interface

If you are unable to access the router's Web Configuration interface from a PC on your local
network, check the following:
Check the Ethernet connection between the PC and the router as described in the previous
section.
Make sure your PC's IP address is on the same subnet as the router. If you are using the
recommended addressing scheme, your PC's address should be in the range of 192.168.0.2 to
192.168.0.254. Refer to
TCP/IP Properties" on page 3-7
Chapter 3
to configure your PC.
Note: If your PC's IP address is shown as 169.254.x.x:
Recent versions of Windows and MacOS will generate and assign an IP address if the
computer cannot reach a DHCP server. These auto-generated addresses are in the range of
169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in this range, check the connection from the PC to the router
and reboot your PC.
If your router's IP address has been changed and you don't know the current IP address, clear
the router's configuration to factory defaults. This will set the router's IP address to
192.168.0.1. This procedure is explained in
Factory Configuration and Password" on page
Make sure your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using Internet
