Troubleshooting
A Time out error message pops up when I enter a Web site name or IP
address in the Address field of my Web browser.
■
Try entering the URL or IP address from a different network
computer. If you don’t get the same error message, check the
original computer’s IP settings. (See
for help checking the IP address.)
■
Check your Wireless Router. Make sure that is connected
properly and receiving power.
■
Make sure that your Internet connection is working correctly.
Ensure that the WAN’s IP address is valid. You may need to
release, then renew, the IP address if there’s a lease time for
your IP address.
I’ve forgotten the Administrator password.
■
Reset your Wireless Router to its factory defaults by pressing
and holding the INIT button for five seconds.
Then, use the default user name,
admin
, to log in and reset your
Wireless Router to its previous configuration. (See
for more information.)
Change the Administrator password as required. (See
for instructions.)
My computer cannot connect to my Wireless Router on the WLAN.
■
Check to see if radio interference is causing a problem. Move
your Wireless Router away from your microwave oven, 2.4 GHz
wireless telephone, baby monitor, and other wireless devices.
■
Your wireless stations may be too far away from your Wireless
Router. (Connection range can be as short as 100 feet in poor
environments.) Trying moving your computer closer to the
Wireless Router to see if the signal strength increases.
■
Ensure that your Wireless Router and your computer’s wireless
adapter are configured to work together. All wireless devices on
your WLAN must have identical Wireless Network ID (SSID)
and WEP encryption settings. See
Adjusting the Wireless Settings
for more information.
