Cable
To connect a PC or another router, use a crossover cable; to connect a LAN Switch
or HUB, use a straight-through cable.
Step 1: Connect one end of the cable to the Ethernet port and the other end to
the peer device;
Step 2: Check the status of LINK LED on the 1GBE panel: ON means the link is
connected and OFF means the link is not connected. In the latter case, check the
line.
