Wireless Broadband Support

Troubleshooting your Impulse Wireless Service

Step 1: Power Cycle the Equipment

  1. Power Cycling the Wireless Router
    • Unplug the wireless router from power for 5 minutes. The power cable is usually a small black cord.  Once 5 minutes have passed, plug the power cord back into the router.
  2. Power Cycle the Power Inserter

    • Unplug the Power Inserter from power for 5 minutes.  The power cable will be a thick black cable that resembles a computer power cable.  This will be in the back of the unit.  Once 5 minutes have passed, plug the power cord back into the Power Inserter.

  3. Verify Power

    • The wireless router should have several illuminated lights.  The Power Inserter will have a single illuminated light on the top.  If this light is not on, or it is flashing, the unit could be damaged.  A replacement will be needed.

Step 2: Verify Cables

  1. Verify Cables at Wireless Router
    • Verify that the cable is going from the wireless router’s WAN or Internet port is plugged in and secure.  If the port is not labeled, please consult your manufacturer’s instructions.  The connection should not be loose.  You should be able to take the cable out by pressing the tab on the top of the cable.  If this comes out easily, without pressing the tab, replace the cable.
  2. Verify Cables at Power inserter
    • The other side of the Power Inserter will have 2 ports with Ethernet cables.  One port is labeled “POE” and the other is labeled “LAN”.  The POE port delivers power to the radio on the roof.  The LAN port connects the wireless router.  Both cables must be securely plugged in and not loose.

Step 3: Still no Connectivity? Bypass the Wireless Router

  1. Plug a computer directly into the Power Inserter
    • If you have a computer with an ethernet port, you can bypass the router by plugging directly into the Power Inserter.  You will need to unplug the cable from the Router’s WAN or Internet port and plug that into the ethernet port on your computer.  Once plugged in, you should start seeing connectivity and be able to browse the internet.

Step 4: Contact Impulse
