Troubleshooting Tips
Here are some tips for correcting common problems you may encounter.
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
1. Turn off and unplug the modem, turn off the FVS114, and shut down the computer.
2. Plug in and turn on the modem, wait two minutes.
3. Turn on the FVS114 and wait one minute.
4. Turn on the computer.
Make sure the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in.
• The INTERNET LINK light on the FVS114 will be lit if the Ethernet cable to the
FVS114 from the modem is plugged in securely and the modem and FVS114 are
turned on.
• For each powered on computer connected to the FVS114 with a securely plugged in
Ethernet cable, the corresponding FVS114 LOCAL port LINK light will be lit. The
front and back of the FVS114 identifies the number of each LOCAL port.
Make sure the network settings of the computer are correct.
• Ethernet cable and wirelessly connected computers should be configured to obtain IP
and DNS addresses automatically via DHCP whenever possible. For help with this,
please see the animated tutorials or the Reference Manual Appendix C on the
Resource CD.
• Some cable modem ISPs require you to use the MAC address of the computer regis-
tered on the account. If so, in the Router MAC Address section of the Basic Settings
menu, select, “Use this Computer’s MAC Address.” The firewall will then capture
and use the MAC address of the computer that you are now using. You must be using
the computer that is registered with the ISP. Click Apply to save your settings. Restart
the network in the correct sequence.
Use the FVS114 status lights to verify correct operation.
If the FVS114 Power light does not turn solid green within two minutes of turning the
firewall on, or if the Test light does not go off, reset the firewall as described in the
Reference Manual on the Resource CD.
