Introduction
Getting to Know the R3000
This section contains a quick description of the R3000’s lights, ports, etc.
The R3000 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 R3000 features 11 LEDs: Power, WAN Ethernet, Internet,
Ethernet (4), USB, 2.4G WiFi, 5G WiFi and WPS Push Button.
R3000 Wireless Router
Power
The Power LED displays the R3000’s current status. If the Power LED glows
steadily green, the R3000 is receiving power and fully operational. When the
Power LED is rapidly flashing, the R3000 is initializing. If the Power LED is glows
red when the Power cord is plugged in, the R3000 has suffered a critical error
and technical support should be contacted. If the Power LED is flashing red, the
R3000 is performing a firmware update.
WAN Ethernet
When the WAN Ethernet LED glows steadily, the R3000 is connected to an
Ethernet WAN. When it flashes, it signifies that data traffic is traveling across the
connection.
Internet
When the Internet LED glows steadily, the R3000 is connected to the DSL provider. When it flashes, data traffic is passing across the R3000.
LAN Ethernet
The LAN Ethernet LEDs illuminate when the R3000 is connected to another
device via one of its LAN Ethernet ports. When one of the LAN Ethernet LEDs
flashes, data traffic is passing across the corresponding connection.
USB
The USB LED illuminates when a USB device is connected via the R3000’s USB
port. This port is not currently operational, but may be enabled in a future firmware update.
Wireless
The Wireless LED illuminates when the R3000 is connected wirelessly, assuming
the R3000’s Wireless feature is turned on.
Introduction
WPS Button
The WPS button activates WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) on the R3000. To use
WPS, press the WPS button on the R3000, then, within two minutes, press the
WPS button on a device you wish to connect to the R3000’s wireless network.
The device will automatically join the R3000’s wireless network. Repeat for other
wireless devices.
Rear Panel
The rear panel of the R3000 features 8 ports (Line, HPNA, LAN Ethernet, WAN
Ethernet, USB, and Power), as well as a Reset switches.
Line Port
The Line port is used to connect the R3000 to a telephone line connection.
HPNA Port
The HPNA port is used to connect the R3000 to an HPNA connection via
coaxial cable.
R3000 Wireless Router
LAN Ethernet Ports (4)
The LAN Ethernet ports are used to connect computers to the R3000 via
Ethernet cable. The Ethernet ports are 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-sensing ports,
and either a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable can be used when connecting to the ports.
WAN Ethernet Port
The WAN Ethernet port is used to connect the R3000 to a WAN via an
Ethernet cable.
USB Port
The USB port is used to connect the R3000 to a USB device. This port is not yet
active; it may be activated in a future firmware update.
Reset Switch
Depressing the Reset switch for one second will restore the R3000’s factory
default settings. To reset the R3000, depress and hold the Reset switch for
approximately ten seconds. The reset process will start after releasing the switch.
Power Port
The Power port is used to connect the Power cord to the R3000.
WARNING! Do not unplug the Power cord from the R3000 during the
reset process. Doing so may result in permanent damage to the R3000.

manually allow (by clicking in a check box to generate a check mark) or deny (by
clicking in a check box to delete a check mark) selected Internet services listed in
the Firewall table.
Port Forwarding
Activating “Port Forwarding” allows the network to be exposed to the Internet in
certain limited and controlled ways, enabling some applications to work from the
local network (game, voice, and chat applications, for example), as well as allowing

The list of forwarded applications will be displayed in the “Forwarded Applications
List” at the bottom of the screen.
DMZ Hosting
Click DMZ Hosting from any Firewall screen to generate the “DMZ Hosting” screen.
The DMZ (De-Militarized Zone) host feature allows one device on the network
to operate outside the firewall to use an Internet service that otherwise would be
blocked, or to expose a networked device to all services without restriction or security.
27
R3000 Wireless Router
Caution! A DMZ host is not protected by the firewall and may be
vulnerable to attack. Designating a DMZ host may also put other
computers in the local network at risk. When designating a DMZ
host, consider the security implications and protect it if necessary.
To designate a local computer as a DMZ host:
1. Click in the “Enable” radio button to activate DMZ hosting.
2. Select a networked device by selecting it from “Select Device” drop-down list,
or enter its IP address in the “Enter IP Address” text box.

of the screen. Only one device at a time on the Router’s network can be designated
as a DMZ host.
UPnP
Click UPnP from any Firewall screen to generate the “UPnP” screen. UPnP
(Universal Plug and Play) allows all supported devices on the Router’s network to
discover and interface with each other without additional configuration. To enable
UPnP on the Router’s network, click in the “Enable” radio button.
