Reference Manual for the MR814 v3 Cable/DSL Wireless Router
Troubleshooting 8-7
202-10039-01
Check to see that the network address of your computer (the portion of the IP address
specified by the netmask) is different from the network address of the remote device.
Check that your cable or DSL modem is connected and functioning.
If your ISP assigned a host name to your computer, enter that host name as the Account
Name in the Basic Settings menu.
Your ISP could be rejecting the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your computers.
Many broadband ISPs restrict access by only allowing traffic from the MAC address of
your broadband modem, but some ISPs additionally restrict access to the MAC address of
a single computer connected to that modem. If this is the case, you must configure your
router to “clone” or “spoof” the MAC address from the authorized computer. Refer to
“How to Bypass the Configuration Assistant” on page 3-12.
Restoring the Default Configuration and Password
This section explains how to restore the factory default configuration settings, changing the
routers administration password to password and the IP address to 192.168.0.1. You can erase the
current configuration and restore factory defaults in two ways:
Use the Erase function of the router (see “Erasing the Configuration” on page 6-7).
Use the Default Reset button on the rear panel of the router. Use this method for cases when
the administration password or IP address is not known.
To restore the factory default configuration settings without knowing the administration password
or IP address, you must use the Default Reset button on the rear panel of the router.
1. Press and hold the Default Reset button until the power light blinks on (about 10 seconds).
2. Release the Default Reset button and wait for the router to reboot.
If the router fails to restart or the power light continues to blink or turns solid amber, the unit
may be defective. If the error persists, you might have a hardware problem and should contact
technical support.
