Troubleshooting This appendix contains troubleshooting and fault finding information for the CPE in the form of common questions and answers. Before beginning, perform the following basic troubleshooting sequence to confirm all the hardware is functioning correctly: 1. Make sure that the CPE is powered on. The Power LED should be green and not flashing. 2. If the Power LED is flashing, then power off all network devices, including the modem and computers. 3. Power on each device in the following order: • Router or switch (if present) • CPE • Computer(s) 4. Check all cable connections. 4 Troubleshooting 4.1 Common Issues Why can't I connect to the CPE to perform web configuration? 1. Check if the device is properly connected to the power adapter. 2. Ensure the PC IP address is in the same network segment as the device address. For example, the PC IP address is 192.168.0.x while the default device's IP address is 192.168.0.10. 3. Restore the factory default settings and re-log onto the CPE's web-based configuration page. How do I reset my password if I've forgotten it? Call the Internet service provider (ISP). • How do I restore my CPE to the factory default settings? 1. Launch an Internet browser and access the CPE configuration webpage at the default address: http://192.168.0.10 2. Go to Tools´ Reset to Default and follow the on screen prompts. How can I find out the CPE's MAC address? 1. Launch an Internet browser and access the CPE configuration webpage at the default address: http://192.168.0.10 2. The MAC address is displayed under Status´ LAN on the status page. How do I set up an IP Address for my PC with Windows XP/2000 installed? 1. The CPE is set to DHCP server enabled by default. N te 2. NOTE: If the CPE DHCP function is enabled and a DHCP server is already present on the LAN, either disable the DHCP function on the CPE or DHCP server, or ensure that the available IP Pools do not overlap. If both the CPE and the existing DHCP server are active, both devices may fail to provide services to the network. Ensure that the target PC is set to obtain an IP address automatically by going to Start´ Control Panel´ Network Connections´ Local Area Connection´ Properties´ Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)´ Properties and select Obtain an IP address automatically, OR 52 Common Issues Troubleshooting 1. Go to Properties as described in step 2 above and select Use the following IP address. 2. Enter a static IP address in the same segment of the device's address. For example, the PC IP address is 192.168.0.x while the default device's IP address is 192.168.0.10. How can I login to the GUI if DHCP cannot assign my computer an IP address? • If the default log in IP address doesn’t respond, use 169.254.1.1 as an alternative. Why can't I use LAN ports to connect to the Internet? 1. Check if the device is properly connected to the power adapter. 2. Check the CPE RSSI LED and make sure the WiMAX signal strength is good. 3. Configure the PC with a static IP address within the same segment of the device's address. For example, the PC IP address is 192.168.0.x while the default device's IP address is 192.168.0.10. 4. Log in to the web configuration page and go to Status´ Connection. Check that Connection Status is good between the device and the WiMAX base transceiver station (BTS). If the connection is not OK, contact the ISP. 5. If the WiMAX connection is OK in the above step, but devices still can not connect to the Internet, ensure DHCP service is enabled and correctly configured in System Setting´ DHCP Server. Why can’t my computer connect wirelessly to the network? • Check the computer wireless security method and key is the same as the CPE. Common Issues 53 This page left blank intentionally. Glossary This section defines or identifies technical terms, abbreviations, and acronyms used through out this document. Administrator An administrator performs the service of maintaining a network. In the case of this CPE, the person who sets up the network connections and makes changes to the settings. BTS Base Transceiver Station. The WiMAX service provider base transmitter providing the WiMAX signal. Client A device on the network that uses the services of the CPE, for example a computer accessing the internet. DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. When enabled, this protocol automatically configures the TCP/IP settings of every computer on the network. Dial-Up A connection which uses the public telephone network. DNS Server Address DNS stands for Domain Name System, which allows Internet host computers to have a domain name and one or more IP addresses (such as 192.168.0.20). A DNS server keeps a database of host computers and their respective domain names and IP addresses, so that when a domain name is requested (as in typing easyDNS.com into an Internet browser), the user is sent to the proper IP Glossary address. The DNS server address used by the computers on the home network is the location of the DNS server the ISP has assigned. DSL Modem DSL stands for Digital Subscriber Line. A DSL modem uses an existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds. Ethernet A standard for computer networks. Ethernet networks are connected by special cables and hubs, and move data around at up to 10 million bits per second (Mbps). Firewall An electronic boundary that prevents unauthorized users from accessing certain files or computers on a network. Firmware Software stored in memory. Essential programs that remain even when the system is turned off. Firmware is easier to change than hardware but more permanent than software stored on a disk. IP Address IP stands for Internet Protocol. An IP address consists of a series of four numbers separated by periods, that identifies a single, unique Internet computer host. Example: 192.34.45.8 ISP Internet Service Provider. An ISP is a business that provides connectivity to the Internet for individuals and other businesses or organizations. LAN Local Area Network. A LAN is a group of computers and devices connected together in a relatively small area (such as a house or an office). A home network is considered a LAN. MAC Address MAC stands for Media Access Control. A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network. 56 Glossary MTU Maximum Transmission Unit. The largest unit of data that can be transmitted on any particular physical medium. NAT Network Address Translation. This process allows all of the computers on the home network to use one IP address. Using the NAT capability of the HomeConnect home network gateway, access is available to the Internet from any computer on the home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from the ISP. Port A logical channel that is identified by its unique port number. Applications listen on specific ports for information that may be related to it. SNTP Simple Network Time Protocol. A communication standard that allows for the transmission of real time information over a network or the Internet. SPI Stateful Packet Inspection. SPI is the type of corporate-grade Internet security provided by a HomeConnect home network gateway. Using SPI, the gateway acts as a firewall, protecting the network from computer hackers. Subnet Mask A subnet mask, which may be a part of the TCP/IP information provided by the ISP, is a set of four numbers configured like an IP address. It is used to create IP address numbers used only within a particular network (as opposed to valid IP address numbers recognized by the Internet, which must assigned by InterNIC). TCP Transmission Control Protocol. The most common Internet transport layer protocol. TCP is connection-oriented and stream-oriented, and provides for reliable communication over packet-switched networks. TCP / IP Transmission Control Protocol over Internet Protocol. This is the standard protocol for data transmission over the Internet. 57 Glossary UDP User Datagram Protocol. Communications protocol for the Internet network layer, transport layer, and session layer, which makes it possible to send a datagram message from one computer to an application running in another computer. Unlike TCP, UDP is connectionless and does not guarantee reliable communication; the application itself must process any errors and check for reliable delivery. 58 Index Antenna Adjusting 21 Alignment 19 Signal Strength 20 Band Changing 38 Band Settings 38 Changing 40 Channel and Frequency Band Settings 38 FFT Settings 39 Choosing a Location 13 Conformance IEEE 802.16 1 R&TTE v UL Information v WEEE v Conformance Documents iii Connection LAN 24 Stand Alone PC 26 Connection Status 45 CPE Powering Down 29 Resetting 29 Deployment Models 8 DHCP 35 Factory Defaults 48 Fast Fourier Transform 39 FFT Settings 39 Firmware 46 Forwarding Status 44 GUI Password 40 Installation Deployment 8 Grounding 16 Hardware 13 LAN Connection 24 Location 13 Pole Mounting 15 Safety Measures 7 Stand Alone PC Connection 26 System Requirements 7 Wall Mounting 14 Index LAN Settings 34 LAN Status 43 Login Details 40 Network Time Protocol 36 NTP 36 Optional Signal Detector Using 22 Outdoor LAN Cable Preparation 17 Password 40 Privacy Key Management Using 41 Rebooting 49 Safety Information i Notices i Security Settings Login Details 40 PKM Settings 41 Using 40 Signal Detector 22 Specifications 23 Status Pages Connection Status 45 Forwarding Status 44 LAN Status 43 System Status 42 System Settings 60 Changing 34 DHCP Server Settings 35 LAN Settings 34 NTP Settings 36 VLAN Tagging 37 System Status 42 System Tools Rebooting the Gateway 49 Restoring Factory Defaults 48 Upgrading 46 Using 46 System Tour External Connections 5 Main Features 2 Package Contents 3 Tools 46 Troubleshooting Basics 51 Common Issues 52 Upgrading Firmware 46 VLAN 37 Warning Symbols Caution iii Note iii Warning iii Web Configuration Homepage 33 Logging In 32 Navigating 33 Web GUI Configuration Introduction 31
