Internet Connection Troubleshooting

In Mac OS X:

1Go to Dock > System References.

2Click Network.

3On the TCP/IP tab, your IP address is displayed.

No dedicated firewall device or router is placed between your computer and the SpeedTouch™.

No personal firewall software is running on your computer.

Your computer is correctly connected to the SpeedTouch™, in other words, check whether the WLAN client is correctly associated with the SpeedTouch™:

1In the Windows XP notification area, click the Wireless Network Connection icon .

If you’re not connected, this icon will have a red cross:

2Check whether the displayed network has your SpeedTouch™ network name (SSID).

To repeat the search for your SpeedTouch™, click Back or restart the wizard. As soon as the wizard finds your SpeedTouch™, you can continue with ”Configuring the SpeedTouch™ (and your computer)” on page 14.

If after running the SpeedTouch™ Home Install Wizard, the completing window does not appear. Instead, you will get a message, the SpeedTouch™ is not responding.

There are two possibilities:

This might be due to the reconfiguration of the SpeedTouch™’s IP settings or wireless access point settings. In this case, the last window of the Home Install Wizard will not be shown. Your SpeedTouch™ is correctly set up though and you will be able to surf the Internet.

If you did not reconfigure the SpeedTouch™’s IP settings or wireless access point settings, restart the wizard.

If the setup fails over a wireless connection, try - if possible - to setup your SpeedTouch™ using a wired connection.

If the problem persists, refer to the Service Provider’s instructions for more information.

To be able to view the SpeedTouch™ documentation pages on the Setup CD, Javascript must be enabled in your web browser. For more information, see the help file of your web browser.
