If your router is still unable to obtain an IP address from the ISP, the problem might be one of
the following:
Y
our Internet service provider (ISP) might require a login program.
Ask your ISP whether they require
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) or some other type of
login.
If
your ISP requires a login, the login name and password might be set incorrectly.
Y
our ISP might check for your computers host name.
Assign the computer host name of your ISP account as the account name in the Internet
Setup scre
en.
Y
our ISP allows only one Ethernet MAC address to connect to Internet and might check
for your computers MAC address. In this case, do one of the following:
- Inform yo
ur ISP that you have bought a new network device, and ask them to use the
router’s MAC address.
- Config
ure your router to clone your computer’s MAC address.
If your router can obtain an IP address, but your computer is unable to load any web pages
from the In
ternet:
Y
our computer might not recognize any DNS server addresses.
A DNS server is a host on the Internet that translates Internet names (such as www
addre
sses) to numeric IP addresses. Typically, your ISP provides the addresses of one or
two DNS servers for your use. If you entered a DNS address during the router’s
configuration, reboot your computer, and verify the DNS address.You can configure your
computer manually with DNS addresses, as explained in your operating system
documentation.
Y
our computer might not have the router configured as its TCP/IP gateway.
If your computer obtains its information from the router by DHCP
, reboot the computer,
and verify the gateway address.
Y
ou might be running login software that is no longer needed.
If your ISP provided a program to log you in to the Internet (such as WinPoET), you no
lon
ger need to run that software after installing your router. You might need to go to
Internet Explorer and select Tools > Internet Options, click the Connections tab, and
select Never dial a connection.
Troubleshooting PPPoE
If you are using PPPoE, try troubleshooting your Internet connection.
To troubleshoot a PPPoE connection:
1. Log in to the ro
uter.
2. Select Maintenance
> Router Status.
3. Click Connecti
on Status. If all of the steps indicate OK, then your PPPoE connection is
up and working.
