Troubleshooting
Assistant CD does not automatically start.
If the CD-ROM does not start the Assistant software automatically,
it could be that the computer is running other applications that are
interfering with the CD drive°
1. If the Assistant software’s Welcome screen does not appear within
15-20 seconds, open up your CD-ROM drive by double-clicking on
the “My Computer” icon that is located on your desktop.
2. Next, double-click on the CD-ROM drive that the Assistant
software CD has been placed in to start the installation.
3. The Assistant software should start within a few seconds. If,
instead, a window appears showing the files on the CD,
double-click on the icon labeled “setup.exe”.
4.
If the Assistant software still does not start, reference the section
titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” (page 87) in this
User Manual for an alternative setup method).
Assistant software cannot find my Router.
If the Assistant software is not able to find the Router during the
installation process, please check the following items:
1. If the Assistant software is not able to find the Router during the
installation process, there may be third-party firewall software
installed on the computer attempting to access the Internet.
Examples of third-party firewall software are ZoneAlarm,
BlackICE PC Protection, McAfee Personal Firewall, and Norton
Personal Firewall. If you do have firewall software installed on
your computer, please make sure that you properly configure it.
You can determine if the firewall software is preventing Internet
access by temporarily turning it off. If, while the firewall is
disabled, Internet access works properly, you will need to change
the firewall settings to function properly when it is turned on.
Please refer to the instructions provided by the publisher of your
firewall software for instructions on configuring the firewall to
allow Internet access.

2.
Unplug power to the Router for 10 seconds, and then plug the
power back into the Router. Ensure that the Router’s “router”
Display is on. If not, check to make sure that the AC adapter is
connected to the Router and plugged into a wall outlet.
3. Ensure that you have a cable connected between the network
(Ethernet) port on the back of the computer and one of the “to
Wired Computers” ports on the back of the Router.
Note: The computer should NOT be connected to the port labeled
“to ADSL” on the back of the Router.
4. Try shutting down and restarting your computer, then rerunning
the Assistant software.
If the Assistant software is still unable to find the Router, reference
the section titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” for
installation steps.
Assistant software cannot connect my Router to the Internet.
If the Assistant software is not able to connect the Router to the
Internet, please check the following items:
1. Use the troubleshooting suggestions within the
Assistant software.
2. If your ISP requires a user name and password, make sure
that you have typed in your user name and password correctly.
Some user names require that the ISP’s domain may be at the
end of the name. Example: “[email protected]”. The
“@myisp.com” part of the user name may need to be typed as well
as your user name.
If you continue to have no Internet connection, reference the section
titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” (page 87 of this
User Manual for an alternative setup method).
