Symptoms |
| Corrective Action |
|
| |
Can’t Connect to a remote node | Check Menu 24.1 to verify the WAN port status. If it indicates | |
or ISP |
| [down], then refer to the section on the WAN port problems. |
|
|
|
|
| In Menu 24.4.5, do a manual call to that remote node. The |
|
| messages will show you whether the call is successful. If the |
|
| call fails, verify the telephone number(s) in Menu 11. |
|
|
|
|
| If the call is successful, but the call still terminates, then it |
|
| must be a PPP negotiation problem. Verify the following |
|
| parameters in Menu 11: My Login, My Password, Route, IP |
|
| LAN Addr. Also verify your IP address in Menu 3.2. |
|
|
|
|
| Check the error log in Menu 24.3.1, this will usually give you |
|
| hints of why that call was dropped. If there is nothing in the |
|
| log, the call may have been dropped by the remote device. |
|
| Make sure that the configurations on the two devices are |
|
| consistent. |
