Overview

This chapter covers some common problems that may be encountered while using the WN-300ARM-VPN

and some possible solutions to them. If you follow the suggested steps and the WN-300ARM-VPN still does

not function properly, contact your dealer for further advice.

General Problems

Problem 1:

Can't connect to the WN-300ARM-VPN to configure it.

Solution 1:

Check the following:

 The WN-300ARM-VPN is properly installed, LAN connections are OK, and

it is powered ON.

 Ensure that your PC and the WN-300ARM-VPN are on the same network

segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)

 If your PC is set to "Obtain an IP Address automatically" (DHCP client),

restart it.

 If your PC uses a Fixed (Static) IP address, ensure that it is using an IP

Address within the range 192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254 and thus

compatible with the WN-300ARM-VPN's default IP Address of 192.168.0.1.

Also, the Network Mask should be set to 255.255.255.0 to match the

WN-300ARM-VPN.

In Windows, you can check these settings by using Control

Panel-Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol.

Internet Access

Problem 1:

When I enter a URL or IP address I get a time out error.

Solution 1:

A number of things could be causing this. Try the following troubleshooting

steps.

 Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your PCs IP settings are

correct. If using a Fixed (Static) IP Address, check the Network Mask,

Default gateway and DNS as well as the IP Address.

 If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check the

WN-300ARM-VPN. Ensure that it is connected and ON. Connect to it and

check its settings. (If you can't connect to it, check the LAN and power

connections.)

 Check the WN-300ARM-VPN's status screen to see if it is working

correctly.
