2.5 Cabling

One of the most common causes of problems is bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that

all connected devices are turned on. On the front of the product is a bank of LEDs. Verify that

the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify that you are using the proper

cables.

Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your Billion router (e.g.

telephones, fax machines, analog modems) have a line filter connected between them and

the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a

qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and

the right way around. Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can

cause problems with your ADSL connection, including frequent disconnections.
