Problem

If you are having trouble connecting to the internet there are a few simple steps you can try before contacting support.

STEP 1: Reboot Your Router

Home Router/Wi-Fi Access Point devices can occasionally get in a bad state, often due to a power outage or loss of connection.

Try rebooting or power cycle your home router:

  1. Disconnect the router from its power source.
  2. Wait for 5 to 10 seconds for the device to completely power down. 
  3. Reconnect the router to power.

STEP 2: Reboot Your Devices

If rebooting your home router does not correct the issue try to reboot the devices experiencing the issue. If you have a Wi-Fi access point that is separate from your main router, reboot the access point.

STEP 3: Bypass Home Router. 

You can narrow down what may be causing the issue by bypassing your home router. 

  1. Disconnect the NocTel Fiber lead Ethernet cable from your home router. 
  2. Connect the NocTel lead Ethernet cable directly to your computer's network port/jack.
  3. In your computer network setting, ensure Wi-Fi is off, and you are connected to the Ethernet option.
  4. Open a browser and check the connection by navigating to a website or performing a google search.
