Sequence to Restart Your Network Be sure to restart your network in this sequence: 1. Turn off and unplug the modem. 2. Turn off the router and computers. 3. Plug in the modem and turn it on. Wait 2 minutes. 4. Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes. 5. Turn on the computers. Power LED Check the Power LED to verify correct router operation. If the Power LED does not turn solid green within 2 minutes after you turn the router on, reset the router according to the instructions in Factory Default Settings on page 121. Check Ethernet Cable Connections Make sure that the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in. • The Internet LED on the router is on if the Ethernet cable connecting the wireless router and the modem is plugged in securely and the modem and router are turned on. • If a powered-on computer is connected to the router by an Ethernet cable, the LAN LED is on. Wireless Settings Make sure that the wireless settings in the computer and router match exactly. • For a wirelessly connected computer, the wireless network name (SSID) and wireless security settings of the router and wireless computer need to match exactly. • If you set up an access list in the Advanced Wireless Settings screen, you have to add each wireless computer's MAC address to the router's access list.
