2.1 Ports and buttons (Back panel)
Power is where you connect the power.
LAN 1–4 (Local Area Network) port(s): connect to Ethernet network devices, such as a PC, hub,
switch, or router. Some routers come with a single LAN connection and some come with four LAN
connections. Depending on the device connected, you may need a crossover cable or a straight-through
cable.
Reset Button: The reset button is used to reset the router. You may need to reset the router if you lose
network connectivity or you lose the ability to access the router using the web interface. To reset the
router, press the Reset button and release. After about 30 seconds the router will become operational.
Phone port: This allows a phone to directly connect to the router. You do not need to add splitter to
your phone; the router has an internal splitter.
DSL(Line) port: This is the WAN interface which connects directly to your phone line.
