EtherFast Cable/DSL Router
Full/Col Green. The Full/Col LED also serves two purposes. If this
LED is continuously illuminated, the connection made
through the corresponding port is successfully running in
Full Duplex mode. If the LED is flickering, the connection
is experiencing collisions. Infrequent collisions are normal.
If this LED is flickering too often, there may be a problem
with your connection. Check the Troubleshooting section on
page 30 if you think there is a problem.
100 Orange. The 100 LED illuminates when a successful
100Mbps connection is made through the corresponding
port.
The WAN Indicators
Link Green. The Link LED illuminates when a successful con-
nection is made between the Router and your Broadband
device or network.

receiving data over the broadband port.
Diag Red. The Diag LED illuminates when the Router goes
through its self-diagnosis mode during boot-up. It will turn
off upon successful completion of the diagnosis. If this
LED stays on for an abnormally long period of time, refer
to Troubleshooting on page 30.

Instant Broadband Series
The Reset Button
Briefly pressing the Reset Button will refresh the Router’s con-
nections, potentially clearing any jammed links.
Pressing the Reset Button and holding it in for a few seconds will
clear all of the Router’s data. This should be done only if you are experienc-
ing heavy routing problems, and only after you have exhausted all of the
other troubleshooting options. By resetting the Router, you run the risk of
creating conflicts between your PCs’ actual IP Addresses and what the Router
thinks their IP Addresses should be. You may be forced to reboot the entire
system(s).
If the Router locks up, simply power it down for 3 to 5 seconds by removing
the power cable from the Router’s Power Port. Leaving the power off for too
long could result in the loss of network connections.
The 8-Port Router’s Front Panel LEDs
The LAN Indicators
Power Green. The Power LED illuminates when the Router is pow-
ered on.
Link/Act Green. The Link/Act LED serves two purposes. If the LED
is continuously illuminated, the Router is successfully con-
nected to a device through the corresponding port (1-8). If
the LED is flickering, the Router is actively sending or
receiving data over that port.
