This chapter discusses how you can diagnose and fix errors quickly without having to
contact a dealer or Lantronix. It helps to connect a terminal to the serial port while
diagnosing an error to view summary messages that may be displayed. When
troubleshooting, always ensure that the physical connections (power cable, network
cable, and serial cable) are secure.
Note: Some unexplained errors might be caused by duplicate IP addresses on the
network. Make sure that your unit's IP address is unique.
When troubleshooting the following problems, make sure that the WiPort is powered
up. Confirm that you are using a good network connection.
