Getting to Know the Gateway
This section contains a quick description of the Gateway’s lights, ports, etc.
The Gateway has several indicator lights (LEDs) and a button on its front panel,
and a series of ports and switches on its rear panel.
Front Panel
The front panel of the Gateway features nine lights: Power, DSL, Internet,
Ethernet (4), USB, and Wireless.
Power Light
The Power light displays the Gateway’s current status. If the Power light glows
steadily green, the Gateway is receiving power and fully operational. When the
Power light is rapidly flashing, the Gateway is initializing. If the Power light is
glows red when the Power cord is plugged in, the Gateway has suffered a critical
error and technical support should be contacted.
DSL Light
The DSL light illuminates when the Gateway is connected to a DSL line.
Internet Light
When the Internet light glows steadily, the Gateway is connected to the DSL
provider. When it flashes, the Gateway’s built-in DSL modem is training for the
DSL service.
Ethernet Lights
The Ethernet lights illuminate when the Gateway is connected to one or more of
its yellow Ethernet ports.
