Common Symptoms/Problems

Before you begin troubleshooting a potential malfunction, it is a good idea to check your basic hard-
ware connections. See below.

Ensure power cord is firmly installed in the back panel’s power jack and the other end is
plugged into the AC power source.

Ensure the unit’s power switch is in the On position.

Verify that all RJ-45, 50-pin Telco connectors, and DB-9 cables fit snugly in each back panel
jack. Faulty connections may cause a number of network interfacing or connection issues.

If you suspect the problem to be on the network end, contact your Central Office to verify proper
operation.
