The name could not be resolved. Either no DNS server was located or the server(s) did not have the name in the host table list. However, this error will also appear if the user entered an IP address incorrectly - such as 100.100.100.256 (an invalid IP address) so it is interpreted as a name to be resolved by DNS.

Network Name: <name> could not be resolved due to a timeout on the request.

No response was received from the DNS server to which the DNS request was sent. This could be due to a network connection problem or a very slow line.

Option 2: DOS Ping to From the a workstation on the local LAN, get to an MS-DOS prompt and ISP or Remote Site type ping <remote IP address> <Enter> where the remote IP address is

Network the address of a host on the remote network (Ex: ping 10.0.0.12). If no address was provided, contact the ISP or the remote site administrator for an IP address to ping.

The OfficeConnect Remote 840 will call the ISP and send the PING information. A reply from 10.0.0.12 indicates success
