Ensure that both ends of the RJ-45 Ethernet cable are plugged in securely — one end to
the Ethernet port of 8012-G1 and other end to the Network Interface Card on the
computer.
Be sure that you have used a straight Ethernet cable. However, if you are connecting to
multiple computers through a hub with Normal port, be sure that you have used a
crossed Ethernet cable, however if the hub has Uplink port, then use straight Ethernet
cable. Also use a straight Ethernet cable to connect your computer to the hub.
Ensure that your Ethernet card is functioning properly and you have properly installed
its driver. Each Ethernet card comes with its own driver.
Ensure that you have configured your computer correctly according to the information
provided by your DSL service provider.

Cause Your BritePort 8012-G1 is not properly configured/setup or your DSL service is down.
Solution Try the following solutions:
Make sure that your telephone line has been activated for the DSL service.
Check your telephone line for the dial-tone. If your telephone line is down, you will not
have DSL service. Contact your telephone company.
Be sure that the telephone cable is connected correctly to your BritePort.
Try connecting again after a few minutes as external interference might have caused
noise to your DSL line.
Attach microfilters to all phone jacks connected to analog devices that share the same
line as your DSL connection.
