Troubleshooting

Broadband ADSL2+ Modem DM111PSPv2
Check the Ethernet connection between the computer and the modem. The Ethernet LED
should light up to show your connection.
Your computer’s IP address is on the same subnet as the modem. If you are using the
recommended addressing scheme, your computer’s address should be in the range
192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254.
If the computer IP address is 169.254.x.x, recent versions of Windows and Mac OS
generate and assign an IP address when the computer cannot reach a DHCP server. The
auto-generated addresses are in the range 169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in this
range, check the connection from the computer to the modem, and reboot your computer.
If your modem’s IP address was changed and you do not know the current IP address,
clear the modem’s configuration to factory defaults as explained in
Factory Settings
on
page
75. This sets the modem’s IP address to 192.168.0.1.
Make sure that your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using
Internet Explorer, click
