Explanation:

SOHO network or also termed as single or small office/home office network is mainly referred to a business category involving a small number of workers usually from 1 to 10. It is a type of local area or LAN network connection meant to be used in small businesses. Like many other LANS, SOHO network may also be a mixture of networks of wireless or wired computers.

TO TROUBLESHOOT A SOHO ROUTER

• First power the router on with nothing connected at all. Give it a minute to boot. Then connect a computer to one of the LAN ports (not the WAN) port and try to access the router by its default IP address: 192.168.50.1

• You should be prompted for a userid/password.  

• If not, check the lights on the Ethernet port on the router and on the computer to make sure they are on. This indicates that at some level the two devices are talking to each other.
