Troubleshooting
This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.
Overview
This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using
the ADW-4302v2 and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested
steps and the ADW-4302v2 still does not function properly, contact your dealer for
further advice.
General Problems
Problem 1: Can't connect to the ADW-4302v2 to configure it.
Solution 1:
Check the following:
The ADW-4302v2 is properly installed, LAN connections are OK,
and it is powered ON.
Ensure that your PC and the ADW-4302v2 are on the same
network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the
case.)
If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP
client), restart it.
If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using
an IP Address within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 and
thus compatible with the ADW-4302v2's default IP Address of
192.168.0.1.
Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match
the ADW-4302v2.
In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control
Panel-Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.
Internet Access
Problem 1: When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.
Solution 1:
A number of things could be causing this. Try the following trouble-
shooting steps.
Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP
settings are correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check
the Network Mask, Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP
Address.
If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check
the ADW-4302v2. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Connect
to it and check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the
LAN and power connections.)
