6. Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the
installation and operation of the DI-514 Wireless Access Point. We cover
various aspects of the network setup, including the network adapters.
Please read the following if you are having problems.
(Note: It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to
configure the DI-514 Access Point.)
1. The computer used to configure the DI-514 cannot access the
Configuration menu.
•
Check that the
Ethernet LED
on the DI-514 is
ON
. If the
LED
is not
ON
, check that the cable for the Ethernet
connection is securely inserted.
•
Check that the Ethernet Adapter is working properly. Please
see item 6 (
Check that the drivers for the network
adapters are installed properly
) in this
Troubleshooting
section to check that the drivers are loaded properly.
•
Check that the
IP Address
is in the same range and subnet
as the DI-514. Please see
Checking the IP Address
in
Windows XP
in the
Networking Basics
section of this
manual.
Note: The IP Address of the DI-514 is 192.168.0.1. All the computers on the
network must have a unique IP Address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x.
and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. Any computers that have identical IP
Addresses will not be visible on the network.
•
Do a
Ping test
to make sure that the DI-514 is responding.
Go to
Start
>
Run
>Type
Command
>Type
ping 192.168.0.1.
A successful ping will show four replies.
