scan for wireless networks using your wireless client, this is the name that will be
displayed.
2. To ensure wireless security "out-of-the-box", Telkom distributes each Mega
200VWR with a unique WPA pre-shared security key already setup on your router.
This pre-shared key secures your wireless connection from unauthorized use and
is printed on a sticker on the underside of the router.
3. In order to establish a wireless connection to the Mega 200VWR, you will need to
setup your wireless client (e.g. laptop with built in wireless module, wireless PCI
card or USB stick) with this WPA pre-shared key exactly as it is printed in the
sticker. Please consult the security section on your wireless client device manual
for instructions on how to do this.
4. Should you wish to alter this pre-shared key, please refer to page 34 of the online
user manual. To view the on-line manual, click on 'Start" , then "Run" and type

Problem Description 1:
ADSL/PPP LED (light) does not come on.
Solution:
1. Check ADSL line connection from telephone wall socket to ADSL port on router.
Make sure that the cable is securely connected.
2. Make sure that no micro filters are connected directly between the telephone wall
socket and the router's ADSL port.
3. If your "ADSL/PPP" LED still keeps blinking after approximately 5 minutes, there may
be a fault on your Telkom ADSL line, please report the fault to Telkom support on
0800 375 375.
Problem Description 2:
Nothing happens when I insert my CD.
Solution:
Your computer may not be set to auto run CDs you insert. To manually start the auto-run
menu, click on "Start"> "Run". The following screen will open, click "Browse".
Navigate to the CD drive containing the installation CD (Mega 200VWR) and double click
the file "autorun.exe". This will start the application from which you may proceed with the
installation.
Problem Description 3:
When I click OK on the Mega 200VWR utility, it does not seem to respond. (Applicable
only to Windows 98, 98SE, ME and NT4)
Solution:
1. Please make sure that you have disabled all firewall software on your computer that
may block communications to the router. The utility is trying to communicate with the
router on an IP address that may be filtered out by your firewall. The most
well-known firewall software packages are: Norton Internet Security, TrendMicro's
PC-Cillin, Bit-Defender, McAfee, etc. Please also remember to re-enable the firewall
software again after the router has been setup.
2. Please ensure that you are trying to access the Mega 200VWR on the correct IP
address. The default IP address (10.0.0.2) and administrative password (admin) is
Mega 200VWR
TLK/200VWR-v1.0-060928

used by default. If you have changes the setting on a previous occasion, please
open the advanced section of the utility to enter the new information.
Problem Description 4:
When the wizard tries to open the Telkom website or when I try to open any other
website, a Dial-up Connection screen pops up asking me to connect to the internet. It
doesn't matter what choice I make I can not connect or see the website.
Solution:
1. Your Internet Explorer is still setup to connect to the Internet using a dial-up account
such as traditional analog or ISDN. Please change this setting to "Never Dial a
connection". You will find this setting on the internet options form. Click on Start>
Control Panel> Internet Options, then click on the connections Tab. Now check the
"Never Dial a Connection" button. If the problem persists, click the "Setup" button in
the top-right corner of the connections tab. Select "Connect to the Internet", "Setup
my Connection Manually", "Connect Using a Broadband connection that is always
on" and then click finish.
Problem Description 5:
I'm using Windows 95 or 98 and I've completed the utility step but I still can't browse the
Internet.
Solution:
1. You may have misspelled your ISP username and password. Remember that the
username and password is case-sensitive. Type them exactly as provided by your
ISP. A steadily orange lit "ADSL/PPP" LED will indicate correct ISP information setup.
2. Your ISP may have provided you with incorrect information. Please confirm with ISP.
Problem Description 6:
The router's "ADSL/PPP" LED does not light orange after I submitted my own ISP
username and password.
Solution:
1. You may have misspelled your ISP username and password. Remember that the
username and password is case-sensitive. Type them exactly as your ISP have
printed them.
2. If you are sure that you have correctly typed your ISP details but are still unable to
browse the Internet, please contact your ISP to confirm your username and
password.
Problem Description 7:
I am having trouble sending E-mail from my automatically setup account in Outlook
Express. I get an error message that states that I do not have any accounts configured
for sending mail.
Solution:
1. Make sure you have an account selected as the default account. If you do not have
a default account, Outlook Express does not know with which account to send the
mail. Open Outlook Express, click on 'Tools', then 'Accounts' and then select the
account you want to set as default. Then click on 'Set as Default'.
