After setup
The internet appears to be unavailable
If the internet has difficulty communicating with your router, the problem may appear as a “Cannot
find [internet address]” message in your Web browser. If you know that the internet address is
correct, and if you’ve tried several valid internet addresses with the same result, the message could
mean that there’s a problem with your ISP or modem communicating with your router.
Try the following:
•
Make sure that the network and power cables are securely connected.
•
Make sure that the power outlet that your router is connected to has power.
•
Reboot your router.
•
Contact your ISP and ask about outages in your area.
The most common method of troubleshooting your router is to turn it off, then back on again. Your
router can then reload its custom settings, and other devices (such as the modem) will be able to
rediscover the router and communicate with it. This process is called rebooting.
To reboot your router using the power cord, do the following:
1. Disconnect the power cord from the router and the modem.
2. Wait 10 seconds and reconnect the power cord to the modem. Make sure it has power.
3. Wait until the modem’s online indicator has stopped blinking (about two minutes). Reconnect
the power cord to the router.
