Troubleshooting Guide
Computer networking can sometimes be "tricky" when many components must work
together for the ultimate network system to function properly. With the right tools the
problems are usually easy to fix. The following tools, available on your computer or the
Installation CD, will get you started.
•
Setup Tool (from the Corinex CableLAN Installation CD)
•
Ping (from the command prompt, see section 2.6)
•
ipconfig (WinNT/2000/XP), winipcfg (Win9x/Me) (from the command
prompt)
If it just doesn’t work...
1. Check that the LEDs on the CableLAN side labelled
LINK
on all devices are on, if
not:
•
Check the coaxial and power cables.
•
Make sure the power outlet is working by plugging something else into it.
•
Make sure the coaxial outlet is working and connected to other outlets used
for CableLAN. If this fails as well, try 2. – 5.
2. Check the Ethernet cables:
The
Corinex CableLAN Adapter
has a LED on the Ethernet side labeled
LINK
. If it is
not on:
•
Check if the device at the other end of the Ethernet cable is switched on.
•
Try a different Ethernet cable.
3. Check the connection between the Corinex CableLAN Adapter and the coax cable
network.
