50 Troubleshooting
1. Use the troubleshooting suggestions within the Easy Install Wizard. If the troubleshooting
screen does not open automatically, click the Troubleshoot button in the lower, right-hand
corner of the Easy Install Wizard window.
2. If your ISP requires a user name and password, make sure that you have typed in your user
name and password correctly. Some user names require that the ISP's domain be at the end
of the name. For example:
[email protected]. The @myisp.com part of the
user name may need to be typed as well as your user name.
If you continue to have no Internet connection, see “Manually configuring network settings”
on page 43 for an alternate setup method.
Problem: The Easy Install Wizard completed installation, but my Web
browser doesn't work.

I am unable to connect to the Internet. The router's WAN light is off
and the Connected light is blinking.
Solution: If you cannot connect to the Internet, the WAN light is off, and the Connected light
is blinking, the problem may be that your modem and router are not connected properly.
1. Make sure the network cable between the modem and the router is connected. We
strongly recommend using the cable that was supplied with your cable or DSL modem for
this purpose. The cable should be connected at one end to the router's Internet/WAN port,
and at the other end to the network port on your modem.
2. Unplug the cable or DSL modem from its power source for three minutes. After three
minutes, plug the modem back into its power source. This may force the modem to properly
recognize the router.
3. Unplug the power to your router, wait 10 seconds, and then reconnect the power. This will
cause the router to reattempt communication with the modem.
4. Try shutting down and restarting your computer.

I am unable to connect to the Internet. The Router's WAN light is on
and the Connected light is blinking.
Solution: If you cannot connect to the Internet, the WAN light is on, and the Connected light

connection.
• If you have a static IP address connection, your ISP must assign you the IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway address. See”Alternate setup method” on page 14 for
details on changing this setting.
• You may need to configure your router to meet the specific requirements of your ISP. To
