What can I do if I cannot access the Internet through the terminal?
Step 1 Check whether the Power indicator on the terminal is solid on.
If the Power indicator is off, perform further checks as follows:
1. Ensure that the terminal is turned on.
2. Ensure that electricity comes from the socket and that the power input
from the socket meets the requirements described on the label of the
terminal power adapter. If the voltage is unsteady, for example, if the
voltage is too high or too low, do not use the terminal. Wait until the
voltage restores to its normal level, and then use the terminal.
3. Ensure that the terminal is properly connected to the socket through
the power adapter.
If the Power indicator is still off, contact an authorized maintenance center.
Step 2 After powering on the terminal, wait for about three minutes. Then, check
whether the ADSL indicator on the terminal is solid on.
If the ADSL indicator blinks for a long time, perform further checks as follows:
1. Ensure that telephone lines are properly connected. Pay special
attention to the connections between the telephone lines and the
splitter.
2. Ensure that the terminal or telephone lines are far from the electric
appliances that generate strong magnetic or electric fields. Replace
telephone lines when necessary.
If the ADSL indicator still blinks and does not turn solid on, contact your network
operator.
Step 3 Check whether the LAN indicator of the terminal is on.
If the LAN indicator is off, perform further checks as follows:
1. Ensure that the network adapter of the computer is enabled.
2. Ensure that the network cable between the terminal and the computer

is properly connected. Remove and then insert the network cable or
replace the network cable when necessary.
If the LAN indicator is still off, contact an authorized maintenance center.
Step 4 Check whether the driver for the network adapter is properly installed.
Take a computer that runs Windows XP as an example. To check whether
the driver for the network adapter is installed, do as follows:
1. On the desktop, right-click My Computer, and then choose Manage.
2. In the navigation tree of the Computer Management window,
choose Device Manager.
3. In the right pane of the Computer Management window, click
Network adapters to view the information about the network adapter
of the computer.
If no network adapter is found or if a question mark (?) or an exclamation mark (!) is
displayed next to the icon of the network adapter, you can infer that the driver for
the network adapter is not properly installed. In this case, re-install the driver for the
network adapter of the computer.
Step 5 Ensure that you have entered the correct user name and user password that
are required by the PPP dial-up software.
The user name and the user password are provided by your network operator.
Step 6 Check whether you can use the PPP dial-up software to dial successfully.
If you cannot use the PPP dial-up software to dial successfully, perform further
checks as follows:
1. Stop the PPP dial-up software and then power off the terminal. After
five minutes, power on the terminal, and then use the PPP dial-up
software to dial again.
2. Restore the default settings of the terminal.
If the problem persists, contact your network operator.
Step 7 Check whether the proxy server of the Web browser is correctly
configured. Take the Internet Explorer installed on a computer that runs
Windows XP as an example. To check whether the proxy server of the
Web browser is correctly configured, do as follows:
1. Launch the Internet Explorer.
2. Choose Tools > Internet Options.
3. In the Internet Options dialog box, click the Connections tab.
4. In the Local Area Network (LAN) settings group box, click LAN
Settings.
5. In the Proxy server group box of the Local Area Network (LAN)
Settings dialog box, ensure that the Use a proxy server for your
LAN (These settings will not apply to dial-up or VPN
connections). check box is cleared.
