Log in to the wireless router. 2. Select the Router Status link under the Maintenance heading to check that an IP address is shown for the Internet Port.

Ask your service provider whether they require a PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE) login. • You may have incorrectly set the Service Name, User Name or Password. See "Troubleshooting PPPoE" on page 31. • Your service provider might check for your computer's host name. Assign the computer Host Name of your ISP account to the wireless router on the Basic Settings screen. • Your service provider might only allow one Ethernet MAC address to connect to the Internet, and check for your computer's MAC address.

On the Basic Settings screen in the Router MAC Address section, select "Use this Computer's MAC Address" and click Apply. Then restart your network in the correct sequence (see "Basic Setup Checklist" on page 27). Troubleshooting PPPoE If you are using PPPoE, try troubleshooting your Internet connection.
