You should receive a reply (not a timeout) from the server.
If you receive a timeout, verify that the cable, hardware and jacks are functional between the client
and the Server. If you are in a LAN involving a hub or switch, you may use the crossover cable sup-
plied with the FriendlyShare software to connect a client machine directly to the server.
Test the ISP connection to the Internet by launching WhatRoute and entering the web address of the
Asanté Website (www.asante.com). You should hear the modem dialing and/or you should receive a
reply (not a timeout). If (www.asante.com) times out, ping the IP address of the Website as an alter-
native (205.267.167.10). If you receive a response using the IP address, but not the name, you may
have a DNS problem. Contact your ISP for support.
If all of the above steps fail, there may be a hardware failure. Contact Asanté Technical Support with
the results of your troubleshooting.
