C H A P T E R 15 Troubleshooting 15.1 Overview This chapter offers some suggestions to solve problems you might encounter. The potential problems are divided into the following categories. • Power, Hardware Connections, and LEDs • NBG6604 Access and Login • Internet Access • Resetting the NBG6604 to Its Factory Defaults • Wireless Connections 15.2 Power, Hardware Connections, and LEDs The NBG6604 does not turn on. None of the LEDs turn on.
Chapter 15 Troubleshooting 15.3 NBG6604 Access and Login I don’t know the IP address of my NBG6604. 6 The default IP address of the NBG6604 in Router Mode is 192.168.1.1. If the NBG6604 obtains a WAN IP address in the same subnet as the LAN IP address 192.168.1.1, the default LAN IP address will be changed to 10.0.0.1 automatically. See Auto-IP Change on page 52 for more information. The default IP address of the NBG6604 in Access Point Mode is 192.168.1.2.
Chapter 15 Troubleshooting 4 Make sure your Internet browser does not block pop-up windows and has JavaScript and Java enabled. 5 Make sure your computer is in the same subnet as the NBG6604. (If you know that there are routers between your computer and the NBG6604, skip this step.) • If there is a DHCP server on your network, make sure your computer is using a dynamic IP address. See Section 11.4 on page 81.
Chapter 15 Troubleshooting • If the NBG6604 is in Router Mode, make sure the WAN port is connected to a broadband modem or router with Internet access. Your computer and the NBG6604 should be in the same subnet. • If the NBG6604 is in Access Point Mode, make sure the WAN port is connected to a broadband modem or router with Internet access and your computer is set to obtain an dynamic IP address.
Chapter 15 Troubleshooting 15.5 Resetting the NBG6604 to Its Factory Defaults If you reset the NBG6604, you lose all of the changes you have made. The NBG6604 re-loads its default settings, and the password resets to 1234. You have to make all of your changes again. You will lose all of your changes when you push the RESET button. To reset the NBG6604: 1 Make sure the power LED is on. 2 Press the RESET button for one to four seconds to restart/reboot the NBG6604.
Chapter 15 Troubleshooting I cannot access the Web Configurator after I switched to AP mode. When you change from router mode to AP mode, your computer must have an IP address in the range between “192.168.1.3” and “192.168.1.254”. Refer to Appendix B on page 113 for instructions on how to change your computer’s IP address.
