Cannot access the
ZyWALL from the
LAN.
Check your Ethernet cable type and connections. Refer to the Quick Start Guide
for LAN connection instructions.
Make sure the computer's Ethernet adapter is installed and functioning properly.
Cannot ping any
computer on the
LAN.
Check the 10M/100M LAN LEDs on the front panel. One of these LEDs should
be on. If they are both off, check the cables between your ZyWALL and hub or
the station.
Verify that the IP address and the subnet mask of the ZyWALL and the
computers are on the same subnet.
