N750 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router WNDR4300
•
Your computer might not have the router configured as its TCP/IP gateway.
If your computer obtains its information from the router by DHCP, reboot the computer,
and verify the gateway address.
•
You might be running login software that is no longer needed.
If your ISP provided a program to log you in to the Internet (such as WinPoET), you no
longer need to run that software after installing your router. You might need to go to
Internet Explorer and select
Tools > Internet Options
, click the
Connections
tab, and
select
Never dial a connection
.
Changes Not Saved
If the router does not save the changes you make in the router interface, check the following:
•
When entering configuration settings, always click the
Apply
button before moving to
another screen or tab, or your changes are lost.
•
Click the
Refresh
or
Reload
button in the web browser. The changes might have
occurred, but the old settings might be in the web browser’s cache.
Incorrect Date or Time
Select
Security > Schedule
to display the current date and time. The router uses the
Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of several network time
servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with the date and time of day.
Problems with the date and time function can include the following:
•
Date shown is January 1, 2000. This means the router has not yet successfully reached a
network time server. Check that your Internet access is configured correctly. If you have
just finished setting up the router, wait at least 5 minutes, and check the date and time
again.
•
Time is off by one hour. The router does not automatically sense daylight savings time. In
the Schedule screen, select the
Automatically adjust for daylight savings time
check
box.
