6. Probleemoplossing

If you encounter issues with your ER707-M2 router, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• Geen internettoegang:
  • Kontroleer alle kabelverbindings (WAN, LAN, krag).
  • Verify your modem or ISP device is working correctly.
  • Confirm WAN settings in the router's web koppelvlak is korrek.
  • Restart the modem, then the router, and then your connected devices.
• Kan nie toegang kry nie Web Bestuur Bladsy:
  • Maak seker dat jou rekenaar aan 'n LAN-poort van die router gekoppel is.
  • Verify your computer's IP address is in the same subnet as the router (e.g., if router is 192.168.0.1, computer should be 192.168.0.x).
  • Probeer om jou blaaier se kasgeheue skoon te maak of 'n ander blaaier te gebruik.
  • If the issue persists, perform a factory reset (see below).
• Stadige netwerkspoed:
  • Gaan jou internetdiensverskaffer se spoed na.
  • Ensure all cables are Cat5e or higher for Gigabit/2.5Gig connections.
  • Monitor network usage to identify bandwidth-intensive applications or devices.
  • Verify duplex settings on connected devices and router ports.
• Fabrieksinstelling: If all else fails, you can restore the router to its factory default settings. Locate the Reset button on the router (often a small pinhole button), press and hold it for about 5-10 seconds until the system LED blinks, then release. This will erase all custom configurations.
