2.The default IP address of the interface card is "192.168.192.168". Check that the card is reachable by “pinging” it from the command line:

ping 192.168.192.168

3.If the interface card is reachable, you should see results something like the following (the exact form of the message depends on your operating system, and the time may vary):

64 bytes from 192:168:192:168:icmp_seq=0. Time=34.ms

4.If the card is unreachable, you may see something like:

PING 192:168:192:168:56 data bytes

until you press Ctrl-C, when you may see something like:

192:168:192:168 PING Statistics

3 packets transmitted, 0 packets received,

100% packet loss

Again, the exact wording of the message you see may differ from this, depending on your operating system. If you cannot “ping” the interface card, check the following:

❏The address is correct in the ping command.

❏The Ethernet connection to the card and to the host has been made correctly, and all hubs, routers, etc. are switched on. If you are using 10BASE-2, make sure that both ends of the segment are terminated.

❏The interface card is operating normally (red light off, green light on).
