What can I do if I cannot access the Internet?

Step 1

Check that the

Power

indicator on the HG532s is steady on.

If the

Power

indicator is off, perform further checks as follows:

1. Check that the HG532s is turned on.

2. Check that electricity comes from the socket and that the power

input from the socket meets the requirements described on the

label of the HG532s's power adapter. If the voltage is unstable, for

example, if the voltage is too high or too low, do not use the

HG532s. Wait until the voltage recovers, and then use the HG532s.

3. Check that the HG532s is securely connected to the socket using

its power adapter.

If the

Power

indicator is still off, contact an authorized maintenance

center.

Step 2

After powering on the HG532s, wait for about 3 minutes. Then

check whether the

ADSL

indicator turns steady on.

If the

ADSL

indicator is off, perform further checks as follows:

1. Check that the telephone line is correctly and securely connected,

especially the connection between the telephone line and the

splitter.

Check that the HG532s and telephone line are located far from any

electric appliances that generate strong magnetic or electric fields.

Replace the telephone line when necessary.

Check whether the

LAN

indicator is on.

If the

LAN

indicator is off, perform further checks as follows:

Check that the network adapter on your computer is enabled.

2. Check that the network cable between the HG532s and the

computer is securely 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 that the driver for the network adapter is correctly installed.

The following example uses a computer running the Windows XP

operating system to check whether the driver for the network

adapter is installed:

1. Right-click

My Computer

, and choose

Manage

from the displayed

shortcut menu.

2. In the

Computer Management

window, click

Device Manager

3. In the right pane of the

Computer Management

window, click

Network adapters

If no network adapter is found or if a question mark (?) or an

exclamation mark (!) is displayed next to the network adapter icon,

the driver for the network adapter is not correctly installed.

Re-install the driver.

Step 5

Check that PPP dial-up software is installed and parameters are set

correctly.

For details about parameter settings, see the user guide for the

PPP dial-up software.

Step 6

Check that you have entered the correct user name and password

required by the PPP dial-up software.

The user name and password are provided by your network service

provider.

Step 7

Check that you can use the PPP dial-up software to set up dial-up

connection.

If the dial-up connection fails, perform further checks as follows:

minutes, power on the HG532s, and use the PPP dial-up software

to dial again.

2. Restore the HG532s to its default settings.

If the problem persists, contact your network service provider.

Step 8

Check that the proxy server of the browser is correctly configured.

The following example uses Internet Explorer on the Windows XP

operating system to check whether the proxy server of the browser

is correctly configured:

1. Launch Internet Explorer.

Internet Options

3. In the

Internet Options

dialog box, click the

tab.

4. In the

check box is cleared.

Step 9

Try to access more websites to check whether the HG532s can

access these websites.

If the problem persists, contact your network service provider.

What can I do if I cannot access the web-based configuration utility?

Step 1

Refer to "What can I do if I cannot access the Internet?" to check

that the power supply, telephone line, and network line are working

properly.

Step 2

Check that the computer's IP address and the HG532s's LAN IP

address are in the same network segment, and that the browser is

not using a proxy server.

To ensure that the computer's IP address and the HG532s's

LAN IP address are in the same network segment, you can set

the computer to obtain an IP address automatically.

Step 3

Check that the correct user name and password are used to log in
