Testing the WAN Interfaces
The WAN interface can be tested using ping as described in the previous section. If the ping is not successful, check the routing table to see if a route to the destination exists (INFO =>SHOW ROUTING TABLE). The menu items INFO =>SHOW STATISTICS =>SWAN and INFO =>SHOW STATUS =>SWAN may also provide useful information.
If the router does not seem to be working properly, and none of the above advice has located the problem, the hardware interfaces should be tested. This will determine if the problem is hardware, software, or configuration related.
This test will be between the two SWAN interfaces.
1Connect the cable labeled “cross” between the two interfaces to be tested.
2Choose DEBUG =>HARDWARE TESTS =>NEW
