Frequently Asked Questions

Whenentering the IPAddressof theDI-824VUP(192.168.0.1),you are not

connecting to the Internet or have to be connected to the Internet.The device has the

utility built-in to a ROM chip in the device itself. Your computer must be on the same

IP subnet to connect to the web-based utility.

To resolve difficulties accessing a Web utility, please follow the steps below.

Step 1

Verify physical connectivity by checking for solid link lights on the device. If

you do not get a solid link light, try using a different cable or connect to a different

port on the device, if possible. If the computer is turned off, the link light may not be

on.

Thefollowingconnections require aCrossoverCable:

What type of cable should I be using? (continued)

What´s the difference between a crossover cable and a straight-through

cable?

Thewiring incrossover andstraight-throughcablesaredifferent.The two types

ofcablehavedifferent purposes fordifferent

LANconfigurations.EIA/TIA568A/568B

definethewiring standardsandallow for

twodifferentwiring color codesas

illustratedin thefollowingdiagram.

*Thewires with colored backgrounds may

havewhite stripesand may be denoted

thatway in diagramsfoundelsewhere.

How to tell straight-through cable from

a crossover cable:

Themain way to tell the difference

between the two cable types is to compare

the wiring order on the ends of the cable. If

the wiring is the same on both sides, it is

straight-through cable. If one side has opposite wiring, it is a crossover cable.

All you need to remember to properly configure the cables is the pinout order of

the two cable ends and the following rules:

Astraight-through cable has identical ends

Acrossover cable has different ends

Itmakesnofunctionaldifferencewhichstandardyou followforstraight-through

cable ends, as long as both ends are the same. You can start a crossover cable

with either standard as long as the other end is the other standard. It makes no

functional difference which end is which. The order in which you pin the cable is

important. Using a pattern other than what is specified in the above diagram

couldcause connection problems.

When to use a crossover cable and when to use a straight-through cable:
