Troubleshooting DSL - Single PC

 

Select the Operating system  you have.

Windows 95, 98, or ME
Windows 2000, NT, or XP

Apple Macintosh Computers
 

The first thing you will want to try is to shut down all the computers you have running on the DSL.

You then want to turn off any DSL equipment, such as the DSL Modem, Router, Switch, or anything else on the network, excluding printers.

Next, Power the DSL Modem back on and make sure that you have a solid green Ready light if you have a Westell Wirespeed modem, or a solid green DSL light if you have a different kind.

Once the DSL modem is up, power up any networking equipment you have and THEN power on your computers, and try the internet again.  It is VERY important that you follow these steps in the order listed here.

If the internet still doesn't work, refer to the information below for more help.
