Wireless Networking.
Your Netopia Router ships with wireless networking enabled by default. Your Wi-Fi client devices can simply scan for the presence of the Neto-
pia device and detect it automatically. However, we strongly recommend that you enable some form of Wi-Fi privacy encryption on your wireless network. Your Netopia
Router supports all the popular Wi-Fi encryption technologies. Detailed instructions for choosing and enabling them can be found in the
3300-ENT Enterprise Series
User Guide
available on-line at:

This section gives some simple suggestions for troubleshooting problems with your Router’s initial configuration.

The first step in troubleshooting is to check the status indicator lights (LEDs) in the order outlined below.

Q: Why is my DSL light flashing green?
A: A flashing green light indicates that no cable is attached to the DSL port or that the Netopia Router is negotiating a
connection. A solid green DSL light indicates that an internet connection is established.
If your DSL light does not become solid green, verify that the connection from the Netopia Router’s DSL port to the
telephone/DSL jack is secure. If the connection is secure, contact your ISP (Internet Service Provider) to verify that your
DSL line is functioning properly.
Q: “I forgot my password, how can I access my Netopia Router?”
A: If you don't have a password, the only way to access the Netopia Gateway is the following:
Referring to the following diagram, find the round Reset Switch opening.
Carefully insert the point of a pen or an unwound paperclip into
the opening.
•If you press the factory default button for less than 1/2 a
second, the unit will continue to run as normal.
•If you press the factory default button for more than 3
seconds, when you release it, the Router will perform a
factory reset, clear all settings and configurations, and
reboot.
Note:
To assure the Netopia Router factory defaults you MUST hold the reset switch for more than
3 seconds. When you release it, the Router will perform a factory reset, clear all settings and configura-
tions, and reboot.
Keep in mind that after a factory reset, all of your settings will need to be reconfigured.

Connect the power supply cord to the power jack on the Netopia
Router. Plug the power supply into an appropriate electrical
outlet.
CAUTION:
Depending on the power supply provided with the product,
either the direct plug-in power supply blades, power supply
cord plug or the appliance coupler serves as the mains power
disconnect. It is important that the direct plug-in power supply,
socket-outlet or appliance coupler be located so it is readily
accessible.
