If the ECM Internet Protocol configurations are configured properly, try using a DOS shell window to "ping" the ECM.At the command prompt, type the following command and press the enter key. Where "xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa" is the IP address or domain name of the module.
Ping "xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa".If the ping command indicates successful communications to the ECM and are still unable to connect to the device using the browser, then check the browser settings. Confirm the ability to connect to other sites on the network. Contact the network administrator for help concerning the appropriate settings in order to connect a personal computer to the ECM that is on the network.
Confirm the network cable is not a "Cross-Over" cable. The cable used to connect the ECM to a network should be a standard "pass-through" or "patch" cable.Problem - Unable to Browse to the PL1000E Home Page Direct - Cross Over Connection
