Chapter 3:
Installaton
Linksys strongly recommends that you run the Setup CD-
ROM. If you have problems running the Setup CD-ROM,
use this chapter.
Connection
Make sure that all the devices that you are working
with are powered down, including your computer(s)
and the Gateway. If you have a modem connected
to your network, disconnect it. The Gateway replaces
your modem.
Connect one end of the provided Ethernet cable to
your computer’s Ethernet adapter. Connect the other
end of the Ethernet cable to one of the Ethernet ports
on the back of the Gateway.
Connect the Computer
Repeat step 2 for every computer or device that you
want to connect to the Gateway via Ethernet. If you
connect more than four computers to the Gateway,
you also need to connect a switch to the Gateway.
NOTE: If your computer’s Ethernet adapter
is not set up, refer to the Ethernet adapter’s
documentation for more information.
Connect one end of the phone cable to the DSL port
on the back of the Gateway.
Connect the DSL
Connect the other end of the phone cable to the wall
jack with ADSL service or microfilter.

NOTE: To avoid interference, you may need to
place a microfilter or splitter between the phone
cable and wall jack. Contact your ISP to determine
if one is required. (UK residents need to connect
the microfilter to the wall phone jack with ADSL
service and then connect one end of the provided
phone cable to the DSL port on it.) If you have
more than one phone and you experience static
on the line after installing the Gateway, then you
need to install an additional microfilter for each
phone or fax that you use. If you use ISDN, then
you do not need a microfilter.
Connect the power adapter to the Gateway’s power
port and the electrical outlet.
Connect the Power
Power on the computer that you want to use to
configure the Gateway.
The Power, Wireless, and at least one of the numbered
Ethernet (1, 2, 3, or 4) LEDs should light up. If not, make
sure the Gateway is powered on and the cables are
securely connected.
