Make sure the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in
•
For each powered on computer connected to the router with a securely plugged in
Ethernet cable, the corresponding router LAN port status light will be lit. The label
on the bottom of the router identifies the number of each LAN port.
•
The Internet port status light on the router will be lit if the Ethernet cable from the
router to the modem is plugged in securely and the modem and router are turned on.
Make sure the network settings are correct
•
LAN and wirelessly connected computers must be configured to obtain an IP address
automatically via DHCP. For instructions on how to do this, please see the animated
tutorials on the
108 Mbps Wireless Media Router Resource CD
or Appendix C in the
Reference Manual
on the
108 Mbps Wireless Media Router Resource CD
.

Some cable modem ISPs require you to set the router to use the MAC address of the
computer registered on the account. If so, in the Basic Settings menu Router MAC
Address section, select “Use this Computer’s MAC address.” The router will then
capture and use the MAC address of the computer that you are now using. You must
be using the computer that is registered with the ISP. Click
