5 | Hardware Installation
The router can be placed anywhere in your office or home. No special wiring or cooling
requirements are necessary. However, you should comply with the following guidelines:
• Place your router on a flat, horizontal surface
• Be sure to place your router away from any heating devices
• Avoid dusty and/or humid areas
1) Setup LAN Connection: Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer’s Ethernet port to one of
the LAN ports of the router.
2) Step WAN Connection: Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into the WAN port on the back panel
of your router, and the other end to the cable/DSL modem. You may connect an analog modem
(optional) to function as a backup connection.
3) Power Up: The router automatically enters the self-testing phase once the power cord is plugged
into a wall outlet. When in self-testing phase, the M1 indicator LED illuminates for about five
seconds to indicate proper connection. The M1 LED flashes twice as soon as the self-testing phase
is completed. After the completion of the self-testing phase, the M1 LED should flash once per
second to indicate that the router is functioning properly.
