Follow these troubleshooting steps if unable to successfully send traffic in Router Mode.

Scenario Problem

Action

1

No Ping response from the

locally connected PC to the

CDM-IP Ethernet port.

ICMP response is:

Request timed out

A. Verify correct IP Address/subnet on PC and CDM-IP.

B. Verify Ethernet connection – cables, PC, Layer 2 hub or switch,

and CDM-IP should have Ethernet activity LED lit.

Note: A PC must be connected to the CDM-IP using a Layer 2

hub or switch, or an RJ45 crossover cable.

When the CDM-IP Ethernet port senses an Ethernet connection,

the CLI displays:

Ethernet Interface UP

If the connection is broken, the CLI displays:

Ethernet Interface DOWN

2

No Ping response from the

locally connected PC to the

remote CDM-IP or remote PC.

ICMP response is:

Request timed out

A. Verify both CDM-IPs are in Router-Point to Point mode.

B. Verify the PC’s Gateways are set to local CDM-IP Address.

C. Verify IF link between modems for proper settings and carrier

quality (Rx signal level, E

b

/N

0

, etc.).

It is possible that there is a spectrum inversion, particularly if you

are using the CDM-IP with RF converter equipment. If this is the

case, the signal level and E

b

/N

0

may be OK, but no data will be

received. To correct this, invert the Tx and Rx Spectrum on one of

the CDM-IPs.
