Is my router correctly connected to the wall outlet? You can check this by verifying that
the POWER LED is on.
Do I have a proper network connection? Turn on the computer and verify if the LED on
the router, corresponding with the LAN-port to which you connected the UTP
networking cable, is lit. The LED on the network adapter of your computer should also
be lit..
