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 TW100-
BRF114 and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the
TW100-BRF114 still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.
General Problems
Problem 1:
Can't connect to the TW100-BRF114 to configure it.
Solution 1:
Check the following:
The TW100-BRF114 is properly installed, LAN connections are OK,
and it is powered ON.
Ensure that your PC and the TW100-BRF114 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 com-
patible with the TW100-BRF114 's default IP Address of 192.168.0.1.
Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the
TW100-BRF114.
In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control Panel-
Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.
