Internet Access
PC cannot access the
Internet
Use the ping utility, discussed in the following sec-
tion, to check whether your PC can communicate
with the iPBX30’s LAN IP address (by default
192.168.1.1). If it cannot, check the Ethernet ca-
bling.
If you statically assigned a private IP address to the
computer, (not a registered public address), verify
the following:
• Check that the gateway IP address on the
computer is your public IP address (see section 3.2
for instructions on viewing the IP information.) If it
is not, correct the address or configure the PC to
receive IP information automatically.
• Verify with your ISP that the DNS server specified
for the PC is valid. Correct the address or configure
the PC to receive this information automatically.
• Verify that a Network Address Translation rule has
been defined on the IPBX30 to translate the private
address to your public IP address. The assigned
IP address must be within the range specified in
the NAT rules. Or, configure the PC to accept an
address assigned by another device (see section
3.2 “Part 2 — Configuring Your Computers”).
The default configuration includes a NAT rule
for all dynamically assigned addresses within a
predefined pool.
PC cannot display web
pages on the Internet.
Verify that the DNS server specified on the PC is
correct for your ISP, as discussed in the item above.
You can use the ping utility, discussed in the follow-
ing section, to test connectivity with your ISP’s DNS
server.
