Quick Tips
This section describes tips for troubleshooting some common problems
Sequence to Restart Your Network
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug the modem.
1.
Turn off the router and computers.
2.
Plug in the modem and turn it on. Wait 2 minutes.
3.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes.
4.
Turn on the computers.
5.
Check Ethernet Cable Connections
Make sure that the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in.
The Internet LED on the router is on if the Ethernet cable connecting the router and the
modem is plugged in securely and the modem and router are turned on.
For each powered-on computer connected to the router by an Ethernet cable, the
corresponding numbered router LAN port LED is on.
Wireless Settings
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 must match exactly.
If you set up an access list in the Advanced Wireless Settings screen, you must add each
wireless computer's MAC address to the router's access list.
Network Settings
Make sure that the network settings of the computer are correct.
Wired and wirelessly connected computers must have network (IP) addresses on the same
network as the router. The simplest method is to configure each computer to obtain an IP
address automatically using DHCP.
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.
