Chapter 1 Introduction

LAN Ethernet Lights (1, 2, 3, 4)
The

LAN

Ethernet lights illuminate when the Router is connected to a local

network via one or more of its Ethernet ports. If flashing, data traffic is passing
across the port(s).

LAN Coax Light
The

LAN

Coax light glows steadily or flashes when the Router is connected to a

local network via its Coax port.

USB Light
The

USB

light illuminates when the Router is connected to a device via a

USB

cable.

Wireless Light
The Wireless

light illuminates when the Router’s wireless access point is turned

on. If flashing, data traffic is passing across the wireless connection.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup
WiFi Protected Setup (

WPS

) provides an easier way to set up a wireless network.

Instead of entering passwords or multiple keys on each wireless client (laptop,
printer, external hard drive, etc.), the Router can create a wireless network that
only requires pressing buttons (one on the Router, and one on the client [either
built-in, or on a compatible wireless card]) to allow wireless clients to join the
Router’s wireless network. Although the

WPS

button is included on the router,

the

WPS

functionality is not enabled until a future firmware release. The button

is included so that

WPS

can be activated with a future firmware release without

having to change the Router. The

GUI

does not include the

WPS

option.
