6 Troubleshooting 

PROBLEM 

CORRECTIVE ACTION 

The 

PWR

 and/or 

SYS

 LED are off. 

Make sure you are using the correct power adaptor and the power adaptor is plugged 
into an adequate power supply. 

 

Turn the ZyAIR off and on. If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In 
this case, you should contact your vendor.

 

The 

LAN

 LED is 

off. 

Check the cable connection to the ZyAIR 

LAN

 port. 

Make sure your computer’s network card is working properly. 

The ZyAIR LED is 
off.   

Turn the ZyAIR off and on. If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In 
this case, you should contact your vendor. 

I cannot access the 
web configurator. 

Make sure the IP addresses and subnet masks of the ZyAIR and the computer are in 
the same IP address range. (For example, if the ZyAIR is using the default IP address 
and subnet mask, check that the IP address of the computer is in the range 
192.168.1.2 ~192.168.1.254 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0). Refer to the 

Setting Up Your Computer’s IP Address 

section.  

If you change the ZyAIR default IP address, then enter the new IP address as the 
web site address. 

The default password is “1234”. If you have changed the password and have now 
forgotten it, you will need to reset the ZyAIR. Refer to the 

User’s Guide 

for how to use 

the 

RESET

 button. 

I cannot ping any 
computer on the 
LAN. 

If all of the LAN LEDs are off, check the cables between the ZyAIR and your 
computer or hub. 

Verify that the IP address and the subnet mask of the ZyAIR and the computers are 
on the same IP address range. 

I cannot get a WAN 
IP address from the 
ISP. 

The WAN IP is provided after the ISP verifies the MAC address, host name or user 
ID. 

Find out the verification method used by your ISP and configure the corresponding 
fields. 

I cannot access the 
Internet. 

Make sure the ZyAIR is turned on and connected to the network. 

Make sure you entered your username correctly. A username may be case-sensitive.
