• Check if other PCs work. If they do, ensure that your workstation’s IP settings are correct
(IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and DNS). Restart the computer that is
having a problem.
• If the PCs are configured correctly, but still not working, check MB5000. Ensure that it is
connected and powered on. Connect to it and check its settings. (If you cannot connect to
it, check the LAN and power connections.)
• If MB5000 is configured correctly, check your Internet connection (WWAN card) to see if
it is working correctly.
• Manually configure the TCP/IP settings with a DNS address provided by your ISP.

sure that Internet Explorer is set to Never dial a connection. For Netscape Navigator, click
Edit, Preferences, Advanced, and Proxy. Make sure that Netscape Navigator is set to

What is Network Address Translation and what is it used for?
