If you are experiencing problems getting
connected to Broadband and your modems ADSL light is off
follow these steps to troubleshoot the problem:
Connection
This problem is normally always
caused because the RJ11 cable (see diagram below) is not
plugged in correctly.
Check that the modem connection
to the RJ11 cable is firm and also that the cable is
plugged into an ADSL filter which then plugs directly
into a main telephone socket.
Ensure that you are NOT
using a phone extension cable as this can cause
deterioration in the phone signal.
Now try to reconnect.
Filter
Remove all other devices
connected to the phone line in your property so that
your modem is the only device connected to the phone
line via an ADSL filter. Reboot and retry connecting.
If this does not resolve the
problem then switch the ADSL filter in use with the
other filter provided in the Universal Broadband pack to ensure the
filter is not faulty.
Reinstall
Uninstall the modem software by
running the installation CD and selecting uninstall. Be
sure to remove the modem after having uninstalled the
software.
If you run the installation CD
again it will then allow you to install the modem
freshly on your computer. Now try reconnecting.
