Troubleshooting Tips
Following are some tips for correcting common problems you might encounter:
•Make sure that the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in.
The WAN Link/ACT light on the firewall is lit if the Ethernet cable to the firewall
from each modem is plugged in securely and the modems and firewall are
turned on.
For each powered on computer connected to the firewall with a securely
plugged in Ethernet cable, the corresponding firewall LAN port LED is lit.
•Make sure that the network settings of the computer are correct.
Computers must be configured to obtain IP and DNS addresses automatically
via DHCP. For information about configuring your computer to obtain an IP and
DNS address via DHCP, see the reference manual.
•For cable modem connections, use MAC spoofing.
Some cable modem ISPs require that you use the MAC address of the
computer registered on the account.
To use MAC spoofing:
1. Select WAN1 ISP Settings > Advanced.
2. In the Router’s MAC Address section select either Use this Computer’s
MAC or Use this MAC address.
3. Enter the MAC address of the computer that is registered with your ISP.
The router captures and uses the MAC address of the computer that you
identified.
4. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
5. Restart the network in the correct sequence.
