Wireless-G ADSL Gateway IMPORTANT: If using microfilters, make sure to only place the microfilters between the phone and the wall jack and not between the Gateway and the wall jack or your ADSL will not connect. 2. Connect a phone cable from the ADSL port on the Gateway's back panel (see Figure 4-2) to the wall jack of the ADSL line. A small device called a microfilter may be necessary between each phone and wall jack to prevent interference. Contact your ISP if you have any questions. 3. Connect the power adapter to the Power port (see Figure 4-3), and then plug the power adapter into a power outlet. • The Power LED on the front panel will light up green as soon as the power adapter is connected properly. The Power LED will flash for a few seconds, then light up steady when the self-test is complete. If the LED flashes for one minute or longer, see "Appendix A: Troubleshooting." 4. Power on one of the computers on your wireless network(s). 5. For initial access to the Gateway through a wireless connection, make sure the computer's wireless adapter has its SSID set to linksys (the Gateway's default setting), and its WEP encryption is disabled. After you have accessed the Gateway, you can change the Gateway and this computer's adapter settings to match the your usual network settings. The Gateway's hardware installation is now complete. Go to "Chapter 5: Configuring the Gateway." NOTE: You should always change the SSID from its default, linksys, and enable WEP encryption.
