If
you are having trouble connecting to the internet
first, look at the lights on the modem. The following
is what they should be:
POWER
should be solid green.
If it’s off then plug the power into the
modem.
STATUS
should be flashing. If it’s solid it means
that the modem hasn’t loaded the firmware
OR it’s locked up. Simply turn the modem
off then back on again after 5 seconds.
ADSL
should be solid green. If it’s flashing
you do not have line sync or ALARM
is red. Try unplugging all phones/filters in your
house and just run a cable directly to your modem
from the wall socket to eliminate the possibility
of another phone device causing an issue. If that
doesn’t work try another phone socket to
eliminate the possibility of a faulty phone socket.
LAN
1x, 2x, 3x, 4x or USB (or WLAN
if wireless) should be flashing (sometimes).
Also check the Ethernet cards indicator lights
on your machine.
If
it’s not on at all check that the cable
is plugged in. Perhaps it’s the wrong cable?
You need a NON crossover cable. (Usually blue).
If it still is not on, is the onboard network
card even enabled in the bios? This is usually
a problem with the network card itself if the
ETHERNET light doesn’t come on.
Once
that’s all done. Reset your computer to
get the DHCP info for the computer.
Disconnect:
Close browser. Your Router is doing the connectivity.
To
set up router connectivity:
Step
1: Log into the router using your WEB
browser, i.e. Internet Explorer or Netscape. Type:
"http://192.168.1.1" in the address
bar and press Enter.
Step
2: The router login prompt should come
up. Please contact Pentel Net at 223-4210 for
your router name and password. Enter your username
and password now.
Step
3: Click
the Advanced Setup link near the left side of
the page.
Step
4: You should now see a new menu. In
this new menu, click on WAN on the left side of
the screen. Then, select PPPoE option. Click on
Next.
Step
5: Enter username and your password.
Click Next.
Step
6: Make sure that Enable WAN Service
is checked, click Next
Step
7: Click on Save to save the settings
into the router's memory.
Give
the router a minute or two to reboot and reconnect.
You
do not have to run any login client on any of
your computers because your router logs to into
Pentel Net automatically.
