Prestige 791R G.SHDSL Router
2.3 Rear Panel
Figure 2-2 Rear Panel
2.3.1 DSL Port
Connect the Prestige directly to the wall jack using a telephone wire (RJ-11 connector).
2.3.2 LAN 10/100M
Ethernet 10Base-T/100Base-T networks use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable with RJ-11 (POTS)
connectors or RJ-45 (ISDN) connectors that look like a bigger telephone plug with 8 pins. The LAN port is
auto-sensing, so you may use the crossover cable provided or a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect
your Prestige to a computer/external hub.
2.3.3 CON/AUX Port
Set this switch to the “CON” side to use the CON/AUX port as a regular console port for local device
configuration and management. Connect the 9-pin male end of the console cable to the console port of the
Prestige and the other end (choice of 9-pin or 25-pin, depending on your computer) end to a serial port
(COM1, COM2 or other COM port) of your computer. Your computer should have a terminal emulation
communications program (such as HyperTerminal) set to VT100 terminal emulation, no parity, 8 data bits,
1 stop bit, no data flow and 9600 bps port speed.
Set this switch to the “AUX” side to use the CON/AUX port as an auxiliary dial-up WAN connection.
Connect the 9-pin male end of the cable to the CON/AUX port and use the included CON/AUX converter
on the other 9-pin end of the cable to connect to a modem or TA.
