Chapter 7 Troubleshooting

Will my Xbox work with the Modem?
Yes, the Modem is compatible with the Xbox. You will need to set a static

IP

address

on the Xbox in the Xbox live network settings, and forward ports

3074

(both

UDP

and

TCP

),

53

(both

UDP

and

TCP

), and

88

(

UDP

) if you run into

DSL

resolution errors.

Is the Modem flash-upgradeable? How do I do it?
Yes, the firmware is upgradeable. You can find a link to the firmware site under
“Utilities” in the Web-based configurator (see page

53

).

Network

I use my laptop at work and at home. Is there something special I need to
do to make it work in both places?
Yes. You must reconfigure your network settings, including Workgroup, Domain,
Password, User name,

IP

addressing, and any other specific settings used by your

company. You may also use third-party software like NetSwitcher to automati-
cally switch between different configurations.

What is the valid IP range I can use for my home network?
The valid

IP

range for the Modem is

192.168.0.2

to

192.168.0.254

by default.

How do I find out which IP address my computer is using?
Windows 95, 98, 98SE, and Me - Select Start, Run, and type

winipcfg

. Press

Enter. When the “Winipcfg” window appears, ensure your network device is
selected.

Windows NT, 2000, and XP - Select Start, Run and type

cmd

. Press Enter. When

the command screen is displayed, type

ipconfig

and press Enter.
