Check your TCP/IP properties in the TCP/IP Control Panel.
When you plug the power adapter into a wall outlet, the P964 APR is powered on and
executes an automatic installation procedure as described below:
1. Scans and locks on to the service provider's downstream frequency.
2. Obtains timing, signal, power level, authentication, addressing and other operational
parameters from the CATV CMTS/headend.
3. Downloads its configuration file and is then operational.
During the initialization stage:
1. The POWER LED should be "ON". The SYS LED lights up after the system
self-test is completed. It stays "ON" when the initialization procedure is completed.
The SYS LED is always YELLOW while system is ready or rebooting. The
SYS LED will become Orange when the system is loading its configuration.
Don't power off or reset your P964 APR during the SYS LED is becoming
Orange. You can only do so after the SYS LED returns GREEN. Otherwise,
your P964 APR will not work properly anymore.
2. The CABLE LED will be flashing on a 2 seconds on/off cyclic duration while
scanning the downstream channel and then on a 1 second on/off cyclic duration
when it has locked on to a downstream channel and is communicating with the
headend CMTS. Once the cable connection is completed, it will remain "ON". It
may need 40 seconds from step 1 to step 2.
3. The DATA LED flashes when the cable downstream or cable upstream is receiving
or transmitting data. It is OFF when the cable connection is idle.
4. Depending on which port is connected successfully, the LAN (1~4) LED , WLAN,
or the USB LED will be "ON" and flashing while sending/receiving data to/from
your computer/laptop.
