2. Your Gateway at a Glance
The AT-AR256E 4-Port ADSL Router has several ports and LEDs. Let’s take a look at them.
2.1 Ports and Buttons
Reset to Factory Defaults: The reset to factory defaults feature will set the ADSL router back to
its factory default configuration. If you had forgotten the login password, you may need to place
the ADSL router into its factory default settings. Note that while the ADSL router is resetting, you
will loose the ability to communicate with the ADSL router via the web interface. To reset the
ADSL router, simply press the reset button for about 10 seconds. The ADSL router will be reset
to its factory defaults and after about 30 ~ 40 seconds the ADSL router will become operational
again.
Local Area Network (LAN) ports: Connect to Ethernet network devices such as computers,
hubs, switches or routers. The AT-AR256E has an integral 4-port switch with auto MDI/MDI-X
feature which supports both straight and crossover cables.
DC input: This is where you connect the power adapter. Make sure to observe the proper power
requirements. The required power is 9 volts. Use the power adapter provided.
DSL port: This is the WAN interface that connects directly to your telephone wall socket.
