Troubleshooting
e.
The Internet Link port LED is lit.
If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.
Power LED Not On
If the Power and other LEDs are off when your gateway is turned on:
•
Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to your gateway and that the power
supply adapter is properly connected to a functioning power outlet.
•
Check that you are using the 12VDC power adapter supplied by NETGEAR for this product.
If the error persists, you have a hardware problem and should contact technical support.
Test LED Stays On
If the Test LED stays on continuously, there is a fault within the gateway.
If you experience problems with the Test LED:
•
Cycle the power to see if the gateway recovers and the LED goes off
•
If all LEDs including the Test LED are still on one minute after power up, clear the gateway’s
configuration to factory defaults. This will set the gateway’s IP address to 192.168.0.1. This
procedure is explained in
“Erasing Configuration“ on page 5-8
.
If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact technical support.
Local Link LEDs Not On
If the Local Port Link LEDs do not light when the Ethernet connection is made, check the
following:
•
Make sure that the Ethernet cable connections are secure at the gateway and at the hub or PC.
•
Make sure that power is turned on to the connected hub or PC.
•
Be sure you are using the correct cable:
—
When connecting the gateway’s Internet port to a cable or DSL modem, use the cable that
was supplied with the cable or DSL modem. This cable could be a standard
straight-through Ethernet cable or an Ethernet crossover cable.

Cable Link LED Not On
If the Cable Link LED does not light when connected to your cable television cable, check the
following:
•
Make sure that the coaxial cable connections are secure at the gateway and at the wall jack.
•
Make sure that your cable internet service has been provisioned by yor cable service provider.
Your provider should verify that the signal quality is good enough for cable modem service.
•
Remove any excessive splitters you may have on your cable line. It may be necessary to run a
“home run” back to the point where the cable enters your home.
Troubleshooting the Web Configuration Interface
If you are unable to access the gateway’s Web Configuration interface from a PC on your local
network, check the following:
•
Check the Ethernet connection between the PC and the gateway as described in the previous
section.
•
Make sure your PC’s IP address is on the same subnet as the gateway. If you are using the
recommended addressing scheme, your PC’s address should be in the range of 192.168.0.10 to
192.168.0.254. Refer to
“Verifying TCP/IP Properties“ on page C-5
or
“Configuring the
Macintosh for TCP/IP Networking“ on page C-6
to find your PC’s IP address. Follow the
instructions in
Appendix C
to configure your PC.
Note:
If your PC’s IP address is shown as 169.254.x.x:
Recent versions of Windows and MacOS will generate and assign an IP address if the
computer cannot reach a DHCP server. These auto-generated addresses are in the range of
169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in this range, check the connection from the PC to the
gateway and reboot your PC.
•
If your gateway’s IP address has been changed and you don’t know the current IP address,
clear the gateway’s configuration to factory defaults. This will set the gateway’s IP address to
192.168.0.1. This procedure is explained in
“Erasing Configuration“ on page 5-8
.
•
Make sure your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using Internet
Explorer, click Refresh to be sure the Java applet is loaded.
•
Try quitting the browser and launching it again.
