Troubleshooting Common Problems and Solutions This chapter provides the solutions to problems occurred during the installation and operation of the Instant GigaCD Server. Read below description to solve your problems. 1. I can't connect to the Virtual CD-ROM Server to configure it. · Check to make sure that the Instant GigaCD Server is properly installed, LAN connections are OK, and it is powered ON. · Make sure that your PC and the Instant GigaCD Server are on the same network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.) · Make sure that your PC is using an IP Address within the range 192.168.0.3 to 192.168.0.254 and thus compatible with the Instant GigaCD Server's default IP Address of 192.168.0.2. In Windows, this is done by using Control Panel-Network to check the Properties for the TCP/IP protocol. 2. Can't find the Virtual CD-ROM Server when I browse the Network. Check the following settings on Control Panel - Network. · TCP/IP protocol is installed. If not, use Add - Protocol - Microsoft TCP/IP to install it. See Client Setup for configuration of TCP/IP. · TCP/IP protocol is bound to your Network card (NIC). Select your Network card, click Properties, and then the Bindings tab. If TCP/IP is not checked, check it. · TCP/IP/Network card is bound to the Client for Microsoft Networks service. Select the TCP/IP entry for your Network Card, click Properties, and then the Bindings tab. If Client for Microsoft Networks is not checked, check it. · If you don't have a router, check that your IP Address is compatible with the Virtual CD-ROM Server's. This means it needs to be from the same address range (e.g. 192.168.0.3 to 192.168.0.254) and using the same Subnet Mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0) · If you DO have a router, check that your Gateway IP Address is set correctly. Ask your LAN administrator for the correct value. 3. I'm using Windows 2000, and can't change the Drive Letter used by the Virtual CD-ROM driver. · Windows 2000 system only allows one CD drive be assigned on installation. Also, the drive letter can not be changed (the next drive letter will always be used). 28 29 EtherFast Series EtherFast Cable/DSL Routers Linksys Warranty Information BE SURE TO HAVE YOUR PROOF OF PURCHASE AND A BARCODE FROM THE PRODUCT'S PACKAGING ON HAND WHEN CALLING.
