Gigaset Router / de / A31008-E105-B100-2-19 / appendix.fm / 05.06.2003

The Gigaset Router or other

PCs cannot be reached by a

PC in the connected LAN

with a ping command.

◆

Make sure that TCP/IP has been installed and

configured on all the PCs on the local network.

◆

Check that the IP addresses have been properly

configured. In most cases, you can use the Gigaset

Router's DHCP function to assign dynamic addresses

to the PCs in the LAN. In this case, you have to

configure the TCP/IP settings of all the PCs so that

they obtain the IP address automatically.
If you configure the IP addresses in the LAN

manually, remember to use the subnet mask

255.255.255.0. This means that the first three parts

of the IP address on each PC and the router have to

be identical. The router also has to be configured as

DNS server and as default router.

No connection to the router's

configuration interface

◆

Use the ping command to check whether you can

establish a network connection to the Gigaset

Router.

◆

Check the network cable between the PC you want

to use to administer the router and the Gigaset

Router.

◆

If the PC you want to use is on the router's local

network, make sure that you are using the correct IP

address administration (see above).

◆

If the PC you want to use is not on the router's local

network it must be authorised via Remote

Management.

Password forgotten or lost

◆

Hold down the reset button on the back of the

router for at least five seconds to restore the factory

settings.

Warning: Please bear in mind that this will restore all

configuration settings to the factory settings.

You cannot access a resource

(drive or printer) on a

different PC

◆

Make sure that TCP/IP has been installed and

configured on all the PCs on the local network and

that the PCs all belong to the same workgroup.

◆

Check whether the resource has been released on

the PC in question and whether you have the

necessary access rights.

◆

Printing: Check whether the printer has been set up

as a network printer.
