If the Test light does not turn on or stays on, the router has a problem. If you experience problems with the Test light, cycle the power to see if the router recovers. If all lights including the Test light are still on one minute after power up:
Clear the routers configuration to factory defaults. This will set the routers IP address to Turn the power off and back on to see if the router recovers. www.routerlogin.net. This procedure is explained in Restoring the Default Configuration and Password on page 2-6. If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact technical support. LAN or Internet Port Lights Not On If either the LAN or Internet lights 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 computer. Make sure that power is turned on to the connected computer. Be sure you are using Ethernet cables like the cable that was supplied with the router. Troubleshooting Logging In to the Router If you are unable to log in to the router, check the following:
If you are using an Ethernet-connected computer, check the Ethernet connection between the computer and the router as described in the previous section. Make sure you are using the correct login information. The factory default login name is admin and the password is password. Make sure that CAPS LOCK is off when entering this information. Make sure your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using Internet Explorer, click Refresh to be sure the Java applet is loaded. Try quitting the browser and launching it again. Troubleshooting 2-3 v1.0, 2006-11 Router Setup Manual Troubleshooting the Internet Service Connection If your router is unable to access the Internet, check that the Internet connection is working, and then check that the router can get an Internet address. Internet Connection First verify that your cable or ADSL modem has a successful connection. The cable or ADSL modem status lights indicate if the modem connection is successful or not. Check your modem documentation or call your Internet service provider for help with verifying that the modem has a successful connection. Router Internet Light is Green or Blinking Green If your Internet light is green or blinking green, then you have a good Internet connection, and your wiring is correct. Router Internet Light Blinking Amber If your Internet light is blinking amber, then your router is attempting to make an Internet connection with the service provider. The LED should turn green within several minutes. If it does not, check the Internet connection on the modem as described above. Router Internet Light Off If the Internet light is off, verify that the Ethernet cable is securely connected between the cable or ADSL modem, and that both the modem and router are turned on. Obtaining an Internet IP Address If your router is unable to access the internet, and your Internet light is amber or blinking amber, check the router to see if it is able to get an Internet IP address from your service provider. Unless you have a static IP address, your router automatically requests an IP address from your service provider. To check the Internet IP address from the browser interface:
1. Log in to the router. 2-4 Troubleshooting v1.0, 2006-11 Router Setup Manual 2. Use the Router Status link under the Maintenance heading to check that an IP address is shown for the Internet Port. If 0.0.0.0 is shown, your router has not obtained an IP address from your service provider. If your router is unable to obtain an IP address from the your service provider, the problem may be one of the following:
Your service provider may require a login. Ask your service provider whether they require PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) login. You may have incorrectly set the Service Name, User Name and Password. See Troubleshooting PPPoE, below. Your service provider may check for your computer's host name. Assign the computer Host Name of your ISP account to the router in the browser-based Basic Settings menu. Your service provider only allows one Ethernet MAC address to connect to Internet, and may check for your computers MAC address. In this case, inform your service provider that you have bought a new network device, and ask them to use the routers MAC address. OR Configure your router to spoof your computers MAC address. This can be done in the Basic Settings menu. Refer to the online help in the router main menu. Troubleshooting PPPoE Troubleshoot a PPPoE connection in this way:
1. Log in to the router. 2. Under the Maintenance heading, select the Router Status link. 3. Click the Connection Status button. 4. 5. If all of the steps indicate OK then your PPPoE connection is up and working. If any of the steps indicates Failed, you can attempt to reconnect by clicking Connect. The router will continue to attempt to connect indefinitely. Troubleshooting 2-5 v1.0, 2006-11 Router Setup Manual 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. Note: Unless you connect manually, the router will not authenticate using PPPoE until data is transmitted to the network. Troubleshooting Internet Browsing If your router can obtain an IP address but your computer is unable to load any Web pages from the Internet, check the following. Your computer may not recognize any DNS server addresses. A DNS server is a host on the Internet that translates Internet names (such as www addresses) to numeric IP addresses. Typically your ISP will provide the addresses of one or two DNS servers for your use. If you entered a DNS address during the routers configuration, restart your computer. Alternatively, you can configure your computer manually with DNS addresses, as explained in the documentation for your computer. Your computer may not have the router configured as its default gateway. Reboot the computer and verify the router address (www.routerlogin.net) is listed by your computer as the default gateway address. Restoring the Default Configuration and Password This section explains how to restore the factory default configuration settings, changing the routers administration password to password and the IP address to www.routerlogin.net. You can erase the current configuration and restore factory defaults. To restore the factory default configuration settings, use the Default Reset button on the rear panel of the router. 1. Use a sharp object like a pen or a paper clip to press and hold the default reset button for about 20 seconds (see page 1-3), until the test light on the front turns on. 2. Release the reset button and wait for the router to reboot. 2-6 Troubleshooting v1.0, 2006-11 Router Setup Manual Advanced Troubleshooting Using the Ping Utility Most computers and routers have a diagnostic utility called ping that sends an request to a target device.

Reply from www.routerlogin.net: bytes=32 time=NN ms TTL=xxx If the path is not working, you see this message:
Request timed out If the path is not functioning correctly, you could have one of the following problems:
Wrong physical connections Make sure the LAN port light is on. If the light is off, follow the instructions in LAN or Internet Port Lights Not On on page 2-3. Check that the corresponding lights are on for your computers network interface card. Wrong network configuration Verify that the Ethernet card driver software and TCP/IP software are both installed and configured on your computer. Troubleshooting 2-7 v1.0, 2006-11 Router Setup Manual Testing the Path from a PC to the Internet After verifying that the path between your computer and the router works correctly, test the path from your PC to the Internet. From the Windows run menu, type:
PING -n 10 <IP address>
where <IP address> is the IP address of a remote device such as your ISPs DNS server. If the path is functioning correctly, replies as in the previous section are displayed. If you do not receive replies:
Check that your PC has the IP address of your router listed as the default gateway. If the IP configuration of your PC is assigned by DHCP, this information will not be visible in your PCs Network Control Panel. Verify that the IP address of the router is listed as the TCP/IP default gateway. Check to see that the network address of your PC (the portion of the IP address specified by the netmask) is different from the network address of the remote device. If your ISP assigned a host name to your PC, enter that host name as the Account Name in the Basic Settings menu. 2-8 Troubleshooting v1.0, 2006-11 Appendix A Technical Specifications This appendix provides technical specifications for the router.
