Broadband ADSL Router User Guide

If you can't connect

If the TW100-BRM504 does not respond, check the following:

•The TW100-BRM504 is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:

•Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.

•Enter the command:

ping 192.168.0.1

If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your PC's IP address is not compatible with the TW100-BRM504's IP Address. (See next item.)

•If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 to be compatible with the TW100-BRM504's de- fault IP Address of 192.168.0.1. Also, the Network Mask must be set to 255.255.255.0. See Chapter 4 - PC Configuration for details on checking your PC's TCP/IP settings.

•Ensure that your PC and the TW100-BRM504 are on the same network seg- ment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
