B.2 Problems Accessing Router

If you have problems accessing the router, please check the following:

1.Can you ping 192.168.123.254? If so, disable the proxy in your browser's setting.

2.If http://192.168.123.254 does not work, try http://192.168.123.254:88.

3.If you are unable to ping the router, do the following:

a.Check configuration of the computer. It must be on the same subnet as the router. (192.168.123.xxx) If not, refer to Chapter 3 (Configuring DHCP for Macintosh Clients) or Chapter 4 (Configuring DHCP for Windows Cli- ents) on how to configure TCP/IP for your computers.

b.Check the Link LEDs of the computer’s network adapter port and the corresponding router port to be sure they are on. If not, check the Ethernet cable(s).

c.FR3004C or FR3004LC Only: Connect a serial cable from the com- puter to the router’s COM port. Using terminal emulation software, enter the console mode. Reset the router’s IP address. See Chapter 11.3 for details on the console mode.

2.In the dialog box, type ping 192.168.123.254 and click OK.
