10-6 Communication problems between PC and router
Dynamic IP address assignment failed
Your PC needs to have an IP address assigned to it so that it can communicate
with the router. This can either be an IP address dynamically assigned to your
PC by a DHCP server, or it can be a fixed IP address. The AR100 has a DHCP
server that can be used to assign IP addresses to your PC. If this dialog appears,
your PC expects the AR100 to assign it an IP address, but it hasn’t received one.

Make sure that the router is connected to the power supply and that the
mains power supply is switched on.
■
Make sure the Ethernet port on the PC is connected to one of the LAN
ports on the router by an Ethernet direct cable. If connected to LAN port 4,
make sure that the PC/Hub switch is in the PC position. Check that the
Link LED is on. Click Continue.

Restart the PC to force it to request dynamic IP address again.

If the problem persists, contact your authorised Allied Telesyn distributor
