6 Troubleshooting
Below is a list of common problems. Before calling technical support, please
look through these issues to see if they help solve your problem.
6.1 The Router is not Functional
• Check that the power LED is green.
• Check that the network cables are installed correctly.
• Check that the LAN and Internet Link LEDs are green.
• Check that the ADSL Sync LED is green.
• Make sure that your PC and the router are on the same network
segment. The router’s default IP address is 10.0.0.138; make sure that
your PC’s network adapter is within the same 10.0.0.x subnet. If you are
running Windows, you can open a DOS window and type IPCONFI G to
verify this data.
• Ping the router from your PC.
a. From the desktop, click Start > Run.
b. In the Open box, type Ping 10.0.0.13 8
c. A positive result displays as:
Reply from 10.0.0.138 byte s=32 time <10ms T TL=255.
• Ping the WAN.
• If you can ping the router and your protocols are configured correctl y,
you should be able to ping the ISP’s network (your ISP should have
provided the IP address of their server). If you cannot ping the ISP’s
network, make sure you are using the correct protocols with the correct
VPI/VCI values.
• Make sure NAT is enabled for your connection. If NAT is disabled y our
router will not route frames correctly.
• Disable proxies on your browser. If you access the router, and instead
of receiving the Login window, the browser displays a login redirection
message, you should verify that JavaScript support is enabled.

ECI Telecom Ltd. Proprietary 12 DWG# 458006-0833-010 A00
• Disable your network card and then enable it.
• Delete your temporary Internet files, history files, and cookies.
• Verify that your Windows LAN is configured for dynamic IP Addresses.
• Verify that none of your applications are trying to create a dial-up
connection to the Internet.
• If your router does not work after performing all the steps above, press
the reset button on the back panel for 10 seconds until the ADSL Sync
lamp turns off. The router will revert into its factory default settings.
Perform the above procedures again.
6.2 The ADSL Link LED Blinks but Does Not Go
Solid
The ADSL line is trying to t rain but f or some rea son it cann ot establis h a valid
connection. You are too far from the telco central office. Contact your DSL
service provider for further assistance.
6.3 The DSL Link LED is Always Off
Make sure you have ADSL service. You sho uld get some kind of informati on
from your ISP that states that ADSL service is installed. You can usually tell if
the service is installed by listening to the phone line; you will hear some highpitched noise. If you cannot hear high-pit ched noise, contact yo ur ISP.
Verify that the phone line is connected directly to the wall socket and to the
ADSL input on your router. If you have inst alled a splitter on the pho ne line, and
accidentally connected the router to the phone side, the ADSL light will not
come on.
