normal, the Power LED will light up.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to the WAN Port on the rear panel. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to
an xDSL/cable modem, or a switch/hub on the LAN of a company/organization. The LED of this port should be
on to indicate a proper connection.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN1/LAN2 Port on the rear panel. Per your needs, connect the other end of
the Ethernet cable to an AP for extending wireless coverage, a switch for connecting more wired clients, or a PC.
The LED of LAN1/LAN2 should be on to indicate a proper connection.
Authentication is required for the clients to access the network via LAN1/LAN2 Port. The LAN port
with authentication function is referred to as Public LAN.
4. Connect an Ethernet cable to the LAN3/LAN4 Port on the rear panel. Connect the other end of the Ethernet
cable to a PC for configuring the HS1100 system. The LED of LAN3/LAN4 should be on to indicate a proper
