• Check that your computer has the IP address of your router listed as the default gateway.
If a DHCP server assigns the IP configuration of your computer, this information is not
visible on your computer’s Network Control Panel. Verify that the IP address of the router
is listed as the default gateway.
• Check to see that the network address of your computer (the portion of the IP address
specified by the subnet mask) is different from the network address of the remote device.
• Check that your cable or DSL broadband 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 Internet Settings screen.
• Your ISP might be rejecting the Ethernet MAC addresses of all but one of your
computers.
Many broadband ISPs restrict access by allowing traffic only 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, configure your router to clone or
spoof the MAC address from the authorized computer.
