TROUBLESHOOTING
Overview
This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the Wireless
Router and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the Wireless

General Problems
Problem 1:
Can't connect to the Wireless Router to configure it.
Solution 1:
Check the following:
•
Check the Wireless Router is properly installed, LAN connections are

•
If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP
Address within the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253 and thus
compatible with the Wireless Router's default IP Address of
192.168.1.254.
Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the
Wireless Router.
In Windows, you can check these settings by using
