Configuring Client TCP/IP

5-28

Verifying Your TCP/IP Connection

After installing the TCP/IP communication protocol and configuring an IP address in 
the same network with the CheetahAccess Internet Gateway, you can use the “Ping” 
command to check if your computer is successfully connected to the 
CheetahAccess Internet Gateway. The following example shows how the Ping 
procedure can be executed in an MS-DOS window. First, execute the “Ping” 
command:

ping 192.168.2.1

If the following messages appear:

Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 192.168.2.1: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64

a communication link between your computer and the CheetahAccess Internet 
Gateway has been successfully established. 

Otherwise, if you get the following messages,

Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.

there may be something wrong in your installation procedure. Check the following 
items in sequence:

1.

Is the Ethernet cable correctly connected between the CheetahAccess 
Internet Gateway and your computer?

The LAN LED on the CheetahAccess Internet Gateway and the Link 
LED of the network card on your computer must be on.

2.

Is TCP/IP properly configured on your computer?

If the IP address of the CheetahAccess Internet Gateway is 
192.168.2.1, the IP address of your PC must be from 192.168.2.2 - 
192.168.2.254 and the default gateway must be 192.168.2.1.

If you can successfully Ping the CheetahAccess Internet Gateway, then you are now 
ready to connect to the Internet!
