Getting to Know the Gateway
This section contains a quick description of the Gateway’s lights, ports, etc.
The Gateway has several indicator lights (LEDs) and a button on its front panel,
and a series of ports and switches on its rear panel.
Front Panel
The front panel of the Gateway features 11 LEDs: Power, DSL, Internet, WAN
Ethernet, Internet, Ethernet (4), Wireless, USB, and WPS Push Button.
Power
The Power LED displays the Gateway’s current status. If the Power LED glows
steadily green, the Gateway is receiving power and fully operational. When the
Power LED is rapidly flashing, the Gateway is initializing. If the Power LED is
glows red when the Power cord is plugged in, the Gateway has suffered a critical
error and technical support should be contacted. If the Power LED is flashing
red, the Gateway is performing a firmware update.
DSL
The DSL LED illuminates when the Gateway is connected to an ADSL line. If
the DSL LED is flashing, the Gateway is in training for DSL service.
Internet
When the Internet LED glows steadily, the Gateway is connected to the DSL
provider. When it flashes, data traffic is passing across the Gateway.

VDSL2/GigE Wireless 11n Gateway
WAN Ethernet
When the WAN Ethernet LED glows steadily, the Gateway is connected to an
Ethernet WAN. When it flashes, it signifies that data traffic is traveling across
the connection.
LAN Ethernet
The LAN Ethernet LEDs illuminate when the Gateway is connected to another
device via one of its LAN Ethernet ports. When one of the LAN Ethernet LEDs
flashes, data traffic is passing across the corresponding connection.
HPNA
The HPNA LED illuminates when the Gateway is connected to another device
via its HPNA port. When it flashes, data traffic is passing across the connection.
USB
The USB LED illuminates when a USB device is connected via the Gateway’s
USB port. This port is not currently operational, but may be enabled in a future
firmware update.
Wireless
The Wireless LED illuminates when the Gateway is connected wirelessly, assum-
ing the Gateway’s Wireless feature is turned on.
WPS Button
The WPS button activates WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) on the Gateway. To use
WPS, press the WPS button on the Gateway, then, within two minutes, press the
WPS button on a device you wish to connect to the Gateway’s wireless network.
The device will automatically join the Gateway’s wireless network. Repeat for
other wireless devices.
