When troubleshooting connectivity problems, start with these
steps:
1. Connect the Ethernet port of the computer you will use for
troubleshooting directly to the HX200 LAN1 port (or
whichever LAN port on the unit has an assigned IP address,
as indicated on the System Control Center System
Information screen), bypassing any network equipment at the
remote site.
2. On the computer connected to the HX200, disable firewall,
intrusion detection/prevention, or any other software
designed to block or alter network traffic.
3. If the satellite router has firewall rules configured that can be
edited on the satellite router, disable the firewall as explained
in Enabling and disabling the firewall on page 65.
4. Retest to confirm that the problem still exists.
If the problem persists, proceed with the remaining
troubleshooting steps in this chapter.
If you cannot access the System Control Center, refer to the
appropriate troubleshooting procedure for the hardware
configuration:

• Computer is connected directly to the satellite router

• Satellite router is connected to an Ethernet device
Follow the steps below if the computer is connected directly to
the satellite router. If you complete a step and the System Control
Center does not appear, continue with the next step. Repeat the
router
steps once more before contacting Technical Support.
1. Make sure that the HX200 is powered up by checking the
front panel LEDs. The Power and LAN LEDs should be
steadily on.
Note: If there is LAN activity, the LAN LED may be
blinking.
