Frequently asked questions
Q.
Why do I get an error message after entering my Bell Internet User ID
and Access Password?
A.
Ensure you enter your user ID and password correctly. These are case
sensitive. Both your Bell Internet user ID (b1#) and access password
were provided to you at the time of purchase. If you cannot locate these,
visit
bell.ca/getInternetID
or contact us at
310-SURF (310-7873)
.
Q.
My computer detects my wireless network but says it can’t access
the network. Why?
A.
If you have changed the encryption key (WPA2 key) to something other
than what was originally provided and don’t remember what it is, you
will need to reset the Wireless Access Point device to its original factory
default settings. Your original WPA2 Key is located on the back of the
WAP device.
Q.
Why can’t I access devices within the local area network?
A.
The devices may not be configured to receive an IP address
automatically. Check the devices that are not available within the
network and check the IP Address settings.
Q.
My Wireless Access Point device is not running properly after a power
outage. What can I do?
A.
Reboot the device by unplugging the power supply. Wait 2 minutes
before plugging it back in.
Q.
Once the service is installed, am I able to move the location
of the modem?
A.
You cannot relocate your modem after it has been installed. Your modem
requires a dedicated phone jack for the service that was set up by the
technician at time of installation.
