Under the Maintenance heading, select the Diagnostics.
2.
Click Run Diagnostic Tests.

If you cannot connect after several minutes, you may be using an incorrect Service Name, User
Name or Password. There also may be a provisioning problem with your ISP.
Unless you connect manually, the modem router will not authenticate using PPPoE or
PPPoA until data is transmitted to the network.

Troubleshooting Internet Browsing

If your modem router can obtain an IP address but your computer is unable to load any Web pages
from the Internet:

A DNS server is a host on the Internet that translates Internet names (such as www addresses)

servers for your use. If you entered a DNS address during the modem router's configuration,
reboot your computer and verify the DNS address as described in the online document that
you can access from
your computer manually with DNS addresses, as explained in your operating system
documentation.
• Your computer may not have the modem router configured as its TCP/IP modem router.
• If your computer obtains its information from the modem router by DHCP, reboot the
computer and verify the modem router address as described in the online document that you
can access from
