Check that the Ethernet Cable is being used correctly. The
Crossover Ethernet cable that comes with the DWL-1750 is
used only when the unit is connected to your PC directly. If the
DWL-1750 is connected to a switch, a Straight-through cable
must be used, not a Crossover cable.
Check that the Ethernet Adapter is working properly. Please
see item 3 (Check that the drivers for the network
adapters are installed properly) in this Troubleshooting
section to check that the drivers are loaded properly.
Check that the IP Address is in the same range and subnet
as the DWL-1750. Please see Checking the IP Address
in Windows XP in the Networking Basics section of this
manual.
Note: The default Ethernet IP Address of the DWL-1750 is 192.168.0.50; the
default wireless IP Address is 192.168.1.50. All the computers on the network
must have a unique IP Address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x. Any
computers that have identical IP Addresses will not be visible on the network.
They must all have the same subnet mask, e.g., 255.255.255.0
Do a Ping test to make sure that the DWL-1750 is
responding. Go to Start>Run>Type Command>Type ping
192.168.0.50. A successful ping will show four replies.
