HOW will I know if this has happened?
You can see whether your La has started in the failsafe mode by looking
at its lights. The POWER and WIRELESS lights will show a color changing (from
orange to green) while the La is booting and they will finish in orange
blinking on and off every second. Once ended, the POWER light will be constantly
orange and only the WHITE port (LAN) will work as well as the WiFi one, but you
won’t be able to connect to the Internet using the La .
WHAT must I do?
NOTE: You will need to have the firmware file to install if your La falls in
this mode. You can get it in the Downloads area of the FON website. Save it in a
location where you can easily find it, as the procedure will ask you to select it.
If you want to get back to your La ’s factory settings manually because you
think you may have a problem with the firmware (please check first with Customer
Care) you can manually start the La in this special way by following the-
se simple instructions. To manually start the La , you must keep the reset
button pressed for 5 seconds (on the base of the La ) while you plug the
La in. When you do this you will see the lights changing as stated before.
In this mode you must connect using the LAN cable or using a new wireless signal
that you will be able to see, called FON_ATTENTION_PLEASE_CONNECT. Re-
member that to use a wireless signal you need to:
- Go to start, “connect to” and click on “wireless network connections”
- In the new window click on “View available wireless networks”
- You will see a wireless signal called FON_ATTENTION_PLEASE_CONNECT
- Click on this option to connect
If you connect using a cable check the following steps:
- Connect the La to your computer plugging in the LAN port
- Go to start, “connect to” and click on “Show all connections”
- Double click on the Local area network icon
- Double click on Internet protocol (TCP/IP)
- Double click on “Obtain an IP address automatically”
- Accept all changes
