ROUBLESHOOTING

This section describes common problems you may encounter and possible
solutions to them. The Router can be easily monitored through panel
indicators to identify problems.

Troubleshooting Chart

Symptom

Action

LED Indicators

Power LED is

Off

•

Check connections between the Router, the external

power supply, and the wall outlet.

•

If the power indicator does not turn on when the

power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem

with the power outlet, power cord, or external power

supply. However, if the unit powers off after running

for a while, check for loose power connections, power

losses, or surges at the power outlet.

If you still cannot isolate the problem, then the

external power supply may be defective. In this case,

contact Technical Support for assistance.
