Why can't I log into the web management interface of my Planet WDRT-731U; the password is wrong?
If you can't log in because the password seems wrong, first, ensure you're connecting to the correct IP address of the router. Passwords are case-sensitive, so check that the 'Caps Lock' light is not on. If you've forgotten the password, perform a hard reset.
Why can't I connect to the Internet using my Planet WDRT-731U Wireless Router?
There could be several reasons why you can't connect to the Internet. * First, go to the ‘Status’ -> ‘Internet Connection’ menu to check the Internet connection status. * Check your PPPoE / L2TP / PPTP user ID and password again. * Try connecting a computer directly to the Internet to verify the connection. * It may be a temporary issue, so be patient. If you still can't connect, try resetting both your router and the device provided by your Internet service provider. Also, contact your Internet service provider to check if there’s a problem with their service. If you can't connect to specific websites, check your URL/Keyword filter. As a test, try using an IP address instead of a hostname to see if it resolves DNS issues.
What to do if my Planet WDRT-731U is not responding when I try to access it via web browser?
If your Planet Wireless Router isn't responding, check the following: 1. Ensure the power cord and Ethernet cable are correctly and firmly inserted into the router. 2. If all LEDs are off, verify the power adapter is working correctly. 3. Make sure your computer is using the same IP address section as the router. 4. If you're using MAC or IP address filtering, try connecting with another computer. If that doesn't work, reset the router to factory default settings by pressing the reset button for over 10 seconds. 5. Set your computer to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) to see if it gets an IP address. 6. If this issue occurred after a firmware upgrade, contact your dealer for assistance.
What should I do if file downloads are very slow or frequently break on my Planet WDRT-731U?
If file downloads are slow or frequently interrupted, consider the following: * If you're using the QoS function, try disabling it. * Sometimes the Internet is just slow, so be patient. * Check what other computers on your local network are doing, as large file transfers can affect speeds. * Try resetting the router. If the issue is new, contact your Internet service provider to check for network problems.
Why can’t my wireless device locate my Planet WDRT-731U?
If your wireless device can't find your Planet Wireless Router, check if 'Broadcast ESSID' is set to off. Also, ensure both antennas are properly secured and that you're not too far from the router. If ESSID broadcast is disabled, you'll need to manually input the ESSID on your wireless client.
Why is my Planet WDRT-731U becoming hot?
If you can keep your hand on the router’s case, the router becoming hot is not a malfunction. However, if you smell something wrong or see smoke coming out, disconnect the router and A/C power adapter from the power (make sure it’s safe!), and contact your dealer for help.
