Troubleshooting

setup assistant Cd does not automatically start�
If the CD-ROM does not start the Setup Assistant automatically, it could

be that the computer is running other applications that are interfering

with the CD drive .

1�

If the Setup Assistant Welcome screen does not appear within

15-20 seconds, open up your CD-ROM drive by double-clicking on

the “My Computer” icon that is located on your desktop .

2�

Next, double-click on the CD-ROM drive that the Setup Assistant

CD has been placed in to start the installation .

3�

The Setup Assistant should start within a few seconds . If, instead,

a window appears showing the files on the CD, double-click on the

icon labeled “SetupAssistant” .

4�

If the Setup Assistant still does not start, reference the section

titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” (page 67) of this

User Manual for an alternative setup method) .

setup assistant cannot find my Router�
If the Setup Assistant is not able to find the Router during the installation

process, please check the following items:

1�

If the Setup Assistant is not able to find the Router during the

installation process, there may be third-party firewall software

installed on the computer attempting to access the Internet .

Examples of third-party firewall software are ZoneAlarm, BlackICE

PC Protection, McAfee Personal Firewall, and Norton Personal

Firewall . If you do have firewall software installed on your

computer, please make sure that you properly configure it . You can

determine if the firewall software is preventing Internet access by

temporarily turning it off . If, while the firewall is disabled, Internet

access works properly, you will need to change the firewall settings

to function properly when it is turned on . Please refer to the

instructions provided by the publisher of your firewall software for

instructions on configuring the firewall to allow Internet access .

2�

Unplug power to the Router for 10 seconds, and then plug the

power back into the Router . Ensure that the Router’s “router” LED

is on; it should be solid BLUE . If not, check to make sure that the

AC adapter is connected to the Router and plugged into a wall

outlet .

3�

Ensure that you have a cable connected between the network

(Ethernet) port on the back of the computer and one of the “to

Wired Computers” ports on the back of the Router .

Note: The computer should NOT be connected to the port labeled “to

Modem” on the back of the Router .

4�

Try shutting down and restarting your computer, then rerunning the

Setup Assistant .

If the Setup Assistant is still unable to find the Router, reference the

section titled “Manually Configuring Network Settings” for installation

steps .
