Table 12-3 

Troubleshooting the WAN Interface

Problem

Corrective Action

The WAN IP is provided when the ISP recognizes the user as an
authorized user after verifying the MAC address or Host Name or
User ID.

Find out the verification method used by your ISP.

If the ISP checks the LAN MAC Address, tell the ISP the WAN MAC
address of the Prestige. The WAN MAC can be obtained from 

Menu

24.1.

In case the ISP does not allow you to use a new MAC, you can clone
the MAC from the LAN as the WAN MAC and send it to the ISP
using 

Menu 2 – WAN Setup

 (recommended).

If the ISP checks the Host Name, enter host name in the 

system

field in 

Menu 1 – General Setup

 when you connect the Prestige to a

cable/xDSL modem.

Cannot get WAN IP from the ISP.

If the ISP checks the User ID, make sure that you have entered the
correct 

Service Type

User Name

 and 

Password

 in 

Menu 4 –

Internet Access Setup

.

Can’t connect to a remote node or
ISP.

Check Menu 24.1 to verify the line status. If it indicates 

Down

, then

refer to the section on the line problems.
