Block WAN Ping

- When you “Block WAN Ping”, the DI-514 will not respond

to ping commands from the Internet. Pinging public WAN IP addresses is a

common method used by hackers to test whether your WAN IP address is

valid.

Discard PING from WAN side

: By enabling this option, the DI-514 will not

reply to ping (ICMP) request packets from the Internet.

VPN Pass-Through

- The Broadband Router supports VPN (Virtual Private

Network) pass-through for both PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol)

and IPSec (IP Security). Once VPN pass-through is enabled, there is no

need to open up virtual services. Multiple VPN connections can be made

through the Broadband Router. This is useful when you have many VPN

clients on the LAN network.

Dynamic DNS

- Fill in the required fields to use the Dynamic Domain Server

feature.

6. Troubleshooting

This chapter provides solutions to problems that can occur during the

installation and operation of the DI-514 Wireless Access Point.

We cover

various aspects of the network setup, including the network adapters.

Please read the following if you are having problems.

(Note:

It is recommended that you use an Ethernet connection to

configure the DI-514 Access Point.)

1. The computer used to configure the DI-514 cannot access the

Configuration menu.

•

Check that the

Ethernet LED

on the DI-514 is

ON

.

If the

LED

is not

ON

, check that the cable for the Ethernet

connection is securely inserted.

•

Check that the Ethernet Adapter is working properly.

Please

see item 6 (

Check that the drivers for the network

adapters are installed properly

) in this

Troubleshooting

section to check that the drivers are loaded properly.

•

Check that the

IP Address

is in the same range and subnet

as the DI-514.

Please see

Checking the IP Address

in

Windows XP

in the

Networking Basics

section of this

manual.

Note:

The IP Address of the DI-514 is 192.168.0.1.

All the computers on the

network must have a unique IP Address in the same range, e.g., 192.168.0.x.

and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. Any computers that have identical IP

Addresses will not be visible on the network.

•

Do a

Ping test

to make sure that the DI-514 is responding.

Go to

Start

>

Run

>Type

Command

>Type

ping 192.168.0.1.

A successful ping will show four replies.
