This Appendix covers the most likely problems and their solutions.

Overview

This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the TW100- BRF114 and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the TW100-BRF114 still does not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.

General Problems

Problem 1: Can't connect to the TW100-BRF114 to configure it.

Solution 1: Check the following:

•The TW100-BRF114 is properly installed, LAN connections are OK, and it is powered ON.

•Ensure that your PC and the TW100-BRF114 are on the same network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)

•If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP client), restart it.

•If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP Address within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 and thus com- patible with the TW100-BRF114 's default IP Address of 192.168.0.1. Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the TW100-BRF114.

In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control Panel- Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.
