If the IP configuration of your computer is assigned by DHCP, this information is not visible in your computer's Network Control Panel. Verify that the IP address of the Trek is listed as the default gateway. • Check to see that the network address of your computer (the portion of the IP address specified by the subnet mask) is different from the network address of the remote device. • Check that your cable or DSL modem is connected and functioning. • If your ISP assigned a host name to your computer, enter that host name as the account name in the Internet Setup screen. • Your ISP might be rejecting the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your computers.

If your ISP additionally restricts access to the MAC address of a single computer connected to that modem, configure your Trek to "clone" or "spoof" the MAC address from the authorized computer.
