Troubleshooting

This appendix provides solutions to problems that may occur during the installation and operation of the Router. Read the descriptions below to help solve your problems. If you can’t find an answer here, check the Linksys website at www.linksys.com.

I need to set a static IP address on a PC.

The Router, by default, assigns an IP address range of 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.149 using the DHCP server on the Router. To set a static IP address, you can only use the ranges 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.99 and 192.168.1.150 to 192.168.1.254. Each PC or network device that uses TCP/IP must have a unique address to identify itself in a network. If the IP address is not unique to a network, Windows will generate an IP conflict error message. You can assign a static IP address to a PC by performing the following steps:

1.Click Start, Settings, and Control Panel. Double-clickNetwork and Dial-Up Connections.

2.Right-click the Local Area Connection that is associated with the Ethernet adapter you are using, and click Properties.

6.Enter the Default Gateway, 192.168.1.1 (Router’s default IP address).

7.Select Use the following DNS server addresses, and enter the Preferred DNS server and Alternative DNS server (provided by your ISP). Contact your ISP or go on its website to find the information.

8.Click OK in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window, and click OK in the Local Area Connection Properties window.
