Chapter 1 Introduction Ethernet WAN Light The Ethernet WAN light illuminates when the Router is connected to the Internet via Ethernet. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the port. Coax WAN Light The Coax WAN light glows steadily or flashes when the Router is connected to the Internet via coaxial cable. Internet Light When the Internet light glows steadily green, the Router is connected to the ISP (Internet Service Provider). If it glows amber, there is a physical connection to the ONT (Optical Network Terminator), but authentication has not taken place (i.e., no IP address is present). Ethernet LAN Lights (1, 2, 3, 4) The Ethernet LAN lights illuminate when the Router is connected to a local network via one or more of its Ethernet ports. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the port(s). Coax LAN Light The Coax LAN light glows steadily or flashes when the Router is connected to a local network via its Coax port. Wireless Light The Wireless light illuminates when the Router is connected wirelessly. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the wireless connection. 5

Introduction
Ethernet WAN Light
The Ethernet
WAN
light illuminates when the Router is connected to the
Internet via Ethernet. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the port.
Coax WAN Light
The Coax
WAN
light glows steadily or flashes when the Router is connected to
the Internet via coaxial cable.
Internet Light
When the Internet light glows steadily green, the Router is connected to the
ISP
(Internet Service Provider). If it glows amber, there is a physical connection to
the
ONT
(Optical Network Terminator), but authentication has not taken place
(i.e., no
IP
address is present).
Ethernet LAN Lights (1, 2, 3, 4)
The Ethernet
LAN
lights illuminate when the Router is connected to a local
network via one or more of its Ethernet ports. If flashing, data traffic is passing
across the port(s).
Coax LAN Light
The Coax
LAN
light glows steadily or flashes when the Router is connected to a
local network via its Coax port.
Wireless Light
The Wireless
light illuminates when the Router is connected wirelessly. If flash-
ing, data traffic is passing across the wireless connection.
