Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling
The four LAN ports on the ADSL Router auto-negotiate the connection
speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, as well as the
transmission mode to half duplex or full duplex.
Use RJ-45 cables to connect any of the four LAN ports on the ADSL
Router to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, cascade any of the
LAN ports on the ADSL Router to an Ethernet hub or switch, and then
connect your PC or other network equipment to the hub or switch. When
inserting an RJ-45 connector, be sure the tab on the connector clicks into
position to ensure that it is properly seated.
Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This
may damage the ADSL Router.
Notes: 1. Use 100-ohm shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable with
RJ-45 connectors for all Ethernet ports. Use Category 3, 4, or 5
for connections that operate at 10 Mbps, and Category 5 for
connections that operate at 100 Mbps.
2. Make sure each twisted-pair cable length does not exceed
100 meters (328 feet).
Connect the Power Adapter
Plug the power adapter into the power socket on the rear of the ADSL
Router, and the other end into a power outlet.
Check the power indicator on the front panel is lit. If the power i
ndicator is
not lit, refer to
“Troubleshooting” on page A-1.
In case of a power input failure, the ADSL Router will automatically restart
and begin to operate once the input power is restored.
