How to Troubleshoot
ADSL Modem
Connection In XP If your
computer connects to a
DSL modem you may
have problems or
questions. I will instruct
you in the most
common ways to
troubleshoot your
network. Step 1 Here is
how to check for the
proper settings: 1. In
your command prompt
window, type ipconfig /
all . Be sure that your IP
address ( internet
provider address) and
DNS ( domain name
system ) information
are accurate with the
network card you have
installed on your
computer. Step 2 2. If
you are required to sign
on through your DSL
provider before you are
allowed to use the
internet than go ahead
and do that. You will be
using a kind of old
fashioned dial up
connection, except you
will be digitally
connected over the DSL
network. You will have
to set up a connection
using the ” Connect
using a broadband
connection that requires
a password and user
name “. Step 3 If this is
the case you have with
your situation and you
use a LAN (local area
network ) adapter to
connect to your DSL
modem, this LAN
adapter will have an IP
address that is going to
be used “ONLY” to
communicate or talk to
your DSL modem. Be
sure to check with your
ISP to be sure that your
computer to modem
connection is
configured correctly. If
it is not correct you will
not be able to connect
to your ISP. Step 4 Now,
be sure to use the
Connection icon to
connect to your ISP. You
can get to it quickly
using the start button
and then the connect to.
When the logon process
has been completed
ipconfig should show a
dial up connection with
a different IP address.
This address is your
real, public Internet
address for the duration
of the call. Step 5 If you
have two network cards
in your computer and
you are using a high
speed connection, make
certain you have
enabled sharing on the
correct connection. The
connection you want is
“shared” make sure it is
checked, for this is the
one that connects you
to your high speed DSL
or cable modem. The
network-side
connection is not the
shared connection and
should have an IP
address of 192.168.0.1.
