Sonicwall webramp 700s factory reset issues

Archived from groups: comp.security.firewalls (More info?)

Joe- If you're not getting any lights at all it sounds as if the thing is
shot. I had problems with mine during a reset but there were always signs of
life (does any light show up?).

However I got a new appliance and was surprised to find that the webramp was
really cutting down on the speed I get. I swithed to a 2Wire and can get
speeds of around 650kb/sec with the service I have whereas the 700s was
limiting things to around 350kb/sec. So if it proves that your appliance is
shot I wouldn't mourn it greatly (plus you can't really update it anymore
even with the SonicWall change).

I don't like to take credit for someone elses information so look at the
following listing in the FAQ's at: http://www.hornick.org/faqs.php

I have a WebRamp 700S with Firewall and I am having a problem with the
firewall where it does not come on and the test light stays lit. Please
suggest what I need to do to get it functional.

Hope this helps.
