Diagnosing CPE Indicators

The FTTH CPE can be easily monitored through panel indicators to identify
problems. The table below describes common problems you may encounter and
possible solutions.

If You Cannot Connect to the Internet

• Check that the attached computer is properly configured for TCP/IP. See

“Configuring the TCP/IP Protocol” on page 21.

• Make sure the correct network adapter driver is installed for the computer

operating system. If necessary, try reinstalling the driver.

• Check if the network adapter’s speed or duplex mode has been configured

manually. Note that we recommend setting the adapter to auto-negotiation when
installing the network driver.
