Appendix -Troubleshooting Troubleshooting The ASUS Wireless Router is designed to be very easy to install and operate. However, if you experience difficulties, use the information in this chapter to help diagnose and solve problems. If you cannot resolve a problem, contact Technical Support, as listed on the front of this manual.
Appendix -Troubleshooting Problem The ASUS Wireless Router Web Manager still cannot find or connect to the ASUS Wireless Router after verifying the IP address and LAN cable, changes cannot be made, or password is lost. Solution In case the ASUS Wireless Router is inaccessible, you can restore the ASUS Wireless Router’s factory default settings. Use a straightened paper clip to press the button located in the hole labeled “Reset” on the back of the ASUS Wireless Router and keep it depressed over 5 seconds.
Appendix -Troubleshooting Problem My 802.11b PC Card will not associate with the ASUS Wireless Router. Solution Follow these steps: 1. Try to bring the devices closer together; the PC Card may be out of range of the ASUS Wireless Router. 2. Confirm that the ASUS Wireless Router and PC Card have the same SSID. 3.

Appendix - Glossary Glossary Access Point - An access point is a device that allows wireless clients to connect to other wireless clients and it acts as a bridge between wireless clients and a wired Ethernet network. Broadband - A type of data transmission in which a single medium (such as cable) carries several channels of data at once. Channel - Wireless access points allows you to choose different radio channels in the wireless spectrum. A wireless LAN device operates within the 2.
Appendix - Glossary Frame-bursting - Refers to burst mode. Burst mode optionally allows a station to transmit a series of frames without relinquishing control of the transmission medium. Firewall - A firewall determines which information passes in and out of a network. NAT can create a natural firewall by hiding a local network’s IP addresses from the Internet. A Firewall prevents anyone outside of your network from accessing your computer and possibly damaging or viewing your files.
Appendix - Glossary NAT (Network Address Translation) - NAT masks a local network’s group of IP addresses from the external network, allowing a local network of computers to share a single ISP account. This process allows all of the computers on your home network to use one IP address. This will enable access to the Internet from any computer on your home network without having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP.
