Throughout, the OfficeConnect Cable/DSL Secure Gateway is simply referred to as the Gateway. Your package contains: ● One OfficeConnect Cable/DSL Secure Gateway ● One power adapter for use with the Gateway ● Four rubber feet ● One Ethernet cable ● One CD-ROM containing the Gateway Discovery program and the User Guide ● This Installation Guide ● One Support and Safety Information Sheet ● One Warranty Flyer ● Stacking Clip ● User Guide ● License agreement System Requirements Before starting, you must ensure the following: ● You already have a cable or DSL broadband connection to the Internet, with a suitable modem, and that this connection works properly. The modem must have an Ethernet port for connection to your Gateway. ● You have a computer that has an Ethernet connection available and is already correctly configured for communication with the Internet. Your computer must be able to connect to the Internet via the modem, and must have a Web browser installed. ● There are no other DHCP server devices on your local network that are responsible for allocating IP addresses to your computers and other networkconnected devices.

Flashing quickly (1/2 second on - 1/2 second off) - Indicates one of the following conditions: • The Gateway has just been started up and is running a self-test routine, or • The administrator has invoked the Reset to Factory Defaults command, or • The system software is in the process of being upgraded In each of these cases, wait until the Gateway has completed the current operation and the alert LED is Off. Flashing slowly (2 seconds on - 2 seconds off) - The Gateway has completed the Reset to Factory Defaults process, and is waiting for you to reset the unit. To do this, remove power, wait 10 seconds and then reapply power. The Gateway will then enter the startup sequence and resume normal operation. On for 2 seconds, and then off - The Gateway has detected and prevented a hacker from attacking your network from the Internet. Continuously on - A fault has been detected with your Gateway during the start-up process. Refer to the main User Guide. 2 Power LED green Indicates that the Gateway is powered on. 3 Four LAN Status LEDs green (100Mbps link) / yellow (10Mbps link) If the LED is on, the link between the port and the next piece of network equipment is OK. If the LED is flashing, the link is OK and data is being transmitted or received. If the LED is off, nothing is connected, or the connected device is switched off, or there is a problem with the connection (refer to the "Problem Solving" section). 4 Cable/DSL Status LED green (100Mbps link) / yellow (10Mbps link) If the LED is on, the link between the Gateway and the cable or DSL modem is OK.

This port will automatically adjust for the correct speed, duplex and cable type. Which means you can connect to your Cable/DSL modem using either straight-through or crossover cables. 7 Four 10/100 LAN ports Use suitable cable with RJ-45 connectors. You can connect your Gateway to a computer, or to any other piece of equipment that has an Ethernet connection (for example, a hub or a switch). These ports will automatically adjust for the correct speed, duplex mode and cable type, which means that you can connect devices to your Gateway using either straight-through or crossover cables.
