Chapter 1 Introduction
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 Gateways 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.

Rear Panel
The rear panel of the Gateway contains seven ports (Ethernet [4], Phone, USB, and
Power), as well as Reset and Power switches.
Ethernet Ports
The Ethernet ports are used to connect computers to the Gateway via Ethernet
cable. The Ethernet ports are 10/100 Mbps auto-sensing ports, and either a
straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable can be used when connecting to
the ports.
DSL Port
The DSL port is used to connect the Gateway to a DSL (Digital Subcriber Line)
connection.

approximately ten seconds. The reset process will start after releasing the switch.
USB Port
The USB port is used to connect a computer to the Gateway via USB cable.
Power Port
The Power port is used to connect the Power cord to the Gateway.
M Warning: Do not unplug the Power cord from the Gateway
during the reset process. Doing so may result in permanent
damage to the Gateway.

Ending IP Address
This is the IP address at which the $(#0server stops assigning IP addresses. We
recommend keeping the factory default settings (192.168.1.254).
The beginning and ending IP addresses define the IP address range of the
Gateway. If the default values are left intact, the Gateway supplies a unique IP
address between 192.168.1.64 and 192.168.1.254 to each computer on the net-
work. Note that the first three groups of numbers of the addresses are identical;
this means they are on the same subnet. The IP address of the Gateway must
be on the same subnet as the IPADDRESSRANGEITGENERATES&ORINSTANCEIFTHE
