Wireless-G Broadband Router
The Front Panel
The Router’s LEDs, where information about network activity is displayed, are located on the front panel.
Power Green. The Power LED lights up and will stay on while the Router is powered on. When the
Router goes through its self-diagnostic mode during every boot-up, this LED will flash. When
the diagnostic is complete, the LED will be solidly lit.
DMZ Green. The DMZ LED indicates when the DMZ function is being used. This LED will remain lit
as long as DMZ is enabled.
WLAN Green. The WLAN LED lights up whenever there is a successful wireless connection. If the LED
is flashing, the Broadband Router is actively sending or receiving data over the network.
1, 2, 3, 4 Green. These numbered LEDs, corresponding with the numbered ports on the Broadband
Router’s back panel, serve two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Broadband Router
is successfully connected to a device through that port. A flashing LED indicates network
activity over that port.
Internet Green. The Internet LED lights up when there is a connection made through the Internet port.
