Make sure that power is turned on to the connected hub or workstation.
Be sure you are using the correct cable:
When connecting the routers WAN ADSL port, use the cable that was supplied with the
DG834.
Troubleshooting the Web Configuration Interface
If you are unable to access the routers Web Configuration interface from a computer on your local
network, check the following:
If you are using an Ethernet-connected computer, check the Ethernet connection between the
computer and the router as described in the previous section.
Make sure your computers IP address is on the same subnet as the router. If you are using the
recommended addressing scheme, your computers address should be in the range of
192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.254. Refer to “Verifying TCP/IP Properties” on page C-6 or
“Verifying TCP/IP Properties for Macintosh Computers” on page C-17 to find your
computers IP address. Follow the instructions in Appendix C to configure your computer.
Note: If your computers IP address is shown as 169.254.x.x:
Recent versions of Windows and MacOS will generate and assign an IP address if the
computer cannot reach a DHCP server. These auto-generated addresses are in the range of
169.254.x.x. If your IP address is in this range, check the connection from the computer to the
router and reboot your computer.
If your routers IP address was changed and you do not know the current IP address, clear the
routers configuration to factory defaults. This will set the routers IP address to 192.168.0.1.
This procedure is explained in “Using the Reset button” on page 8-9.
Make sure your browser has Java, JavaScript, or ActiveX enabled. If you are using Internet
Explorer, click Refresh to be sure the Java applet is loaded.
Try quitting the browser and launching it again.
Make sure you are using the correct login information. The factory default login name is
admin and the password is password. Make sure that CAPS LOCK is off when entering this
information.
If the router does not save changes you have made in the Web Configuration Interface, check the
following:
When entering configuration settings, be sure to click the APPLY button before moving to
another menu or tab, or your changes are lost.
