Hot cable connector

If the connector on either the transmit or receive cable feels hot to the touch, the connector may
be loose or otherwise defective. Troubleshoot this problem as follows:

1.

Remove power from the satellite router by unplugging the power supply AC power cord
from the surge protector or AC outlet.

To remove power from the satellite router, always

unplug the AC power cord from the power source (power outlet, power strip, or surge
protector). Do

not

remove the DC power cord from the router’s rear panel. Doing so could

result in an electrical shock or damage to the router.

2.

Allow the cable connector to cool for at least 5 min.

3.

Make sure the cable connector feels cool.

4.

Make sure the connector is securely attached to the cable and properly aligned. If it is
cross-threaded, remove it and reattach it. The connector should be finger tight with no play.

Note:

The satellite router may operate correctly when first installed, even if the transmit

and receive cable connectors are not adequately tightened. However, problems could
develop later. Therefore, correct operation of the router is not an indication that the
cables are adequately tightened.

5.

Reapply power to the router by plugging the power supply back into the surge protector or
AC outlet.

A suitable surge protector is recommended to protect the satellite

router from possible damage due to power surges.

6.

Wait 5 min.

7.

Check the connector to see if it is hot.
If the connector is still hot, it may be defective and should be replaced.

VADB – Router remains in VADB mode

The satellite router switches automatically between normal mode (using the satellite link) and
VADB (phone line backup mode) as conditions require. However, VADB can be manually
activated for test purposes. If VADB is manually activated it remains on indefinitely until it is
manually deactivated. If the router remains in VADB mode and there is no reason to think the
satellite link is down, call your service provider.

You can tell if the router is in VADB mode by looking at the Data Path parameter on the System
Control Center System Status page.

VADB

(with a red flag) indicates VADB mode.

Satellite

Normal

means the router is using the satellite link.
