Refreshing the RSU’s connection
When you refresh the RSU’s connection, your service provider is
assigning your computer a new IP address. You need to refresh your
RSU’s connection with your service provider when:
• You completed steps 1 through 3 in this guide, but your Internet
browser does not let you open any Internet sites.
• You needed to complete the steps in the section “Fine-tuning
the connection to the service provider” on page 16 in this guide.
WINDOWS USERS: REFRESHING THE CONNECTION
To refresh the connection:
1 Make sure you have installed the LinkMonitor program.
2 In the system tray, right click the blue RSU icon (Figure 8) and
select Open.
3 In the window that appears, on the Local Net Config tab, click
the Renew IP Address button.
NON-WINDOWS USERS: REFRESHING THE
CONNECTION
If you do not run the Windows operating system, you can reboot your
computer to refresh the connection. You may want to refer to your
operating system’s help files to determine if other methods exist to
refresh the connection (that is, to find a method for refreshing the IP
address).
