Console connection problems
Can’t see the configuration screens (nothing appears)
■ Check the cable connection from the Netopia Router’s console
port to the computer being used as a console.
■ Check that the terminal emulation software is accessing the
correct port on the computer that’s being used as a console.
■ Try pressing Ctrl-L or Return several times to refresh the
terminal screen.
■ Check that flow control on serial connections is turned off.
Junk characters appear on the screen
■ Check that the terminal emulation software is configured
correctly.
■ Check the baud rate.
Characters are missing from some of the configuration screens
■ Try changing the Netopia Router’s default speed of 9.6 kbps
and setting your terminal emulation software to match the new
speed.
ISDN problems
The WAN Ready LED is blinking red
This is an indication that the Netopia Router cannot detect the ISDN
switch at your ISDN service provider’s central office.
■ Check that the cable you are using for ISDN is not a 10Base-T
cable, which can look similar to an ISDN cable.
■ Check that you have plugged the correct cable into the Netopia
Router’s ISDN port, and not one of its EtherWave ports.
