Troubleshooting
Using the USB Power Cable
You can connect the USB power cable to a USB port on a nearby device. If the Travel router
is not getting enough power, the following can occur:
•
The Power LED is red.
•
The Travel router resets itself intermittently or turns itself off.
Check to make sure that the device with the USB port is powered on. If so, it is likely that the
USB port you are connected to does not provide enough power for the Travel router. Try
using the power adapter. See

When I launched my browser, I got an error page. What can I do?
•
Make sure that you include http:// when you type this URL in the address field of your
Internet browser. If you leave it out, you might not be able to connect.
•
If you started up your computer, connected the Ethernet cable to the Travel router, and
launched your browser quickly, the computer might still need a couple of minutes to
recognize the Ethernet LAN connection. Try launching your browser again.
If the problem continues, make sure that your Ethernet cable is securely connected to the
Travel router and the computer, and that the Travel router LAN LED is on. If not,
reconnect the Ethernet cable, and re-launch your Internet browser.
Connecting to Wireless Networks
To join a wireless network you must know its network name (also called the SSID) so that
you can select it. If the network is secure, you must know the passphrase or wireless key. If
the Travel router does not connect to the network that you chose, the following message
displays:
Connection was not established to the selected network.
