If your computer can’t connect to the Internet. 

If  your  computer  can’t  access  the  Internet,  try  the 

following:

 

Check that the power cord on the Valet is connected 

to a power outlet. If connected to a power strip, make 

sure the power strip is turned on.

 

Check  to  make  sure  that  the  power  light,  Internet 

lights, port lights and wireless lights are on. 

 

Check that the Valet is connected to your DSL or cable 

modem using a network cable.

 

Turn off your DSL or cable modem and your Valet, and 

wait 30 seconds. Turn the modem on, wait 30 seconds, 

and  then  turn  on  your Valet.  Reboot  your  computer 

and try to connect to the Internet again.

 

If your PC does not have a wireless network adapter, 

we recommend the Valet Connector (Cisco AM10)
