Page 158 C h a p t e r 9 First, confirm that the connection between your home network and the Internet is working. Try to go online and browse a web site from a computer on the same network as your DMS. If you cannot browse the Internet, you must fix the connection from your network to the Internet.
Page 159 2. Check connection to the network adapter. Unplug the USB cable from the back panel of your DMS and then plug it back in. Make sure the cable is pushed all the way in; sometimes lights on the adapter turn on before the USB cable is pushed all the way in. Unplug the side of the USB cable connected to the adapter and then plug it back in.
Page 160 C h a p t e r 9 My DMS is not connecting to my wireless home network. Connecting to the network access point may take several minutes once the problem is resolved.
