Step 1: Connect your Cables
Plug LinkStation’s power cord and Ethernet cable into the back of
the LinkStation.
Connect the power plug to a surge protector or power outlet (Plug
type and socket will differ depending on country of use). Plug the
other end of the Ethernet cable into a hub, switch, or router on
your local network.

Press the power button on
the front panel to turn your
LinkStation on.
Check the LINK/ACT LED on
the front of the LinkStation. If
it’s lit, then your LinkStation is
connected properly. Please turn
to page 4 to continue setup.
If the LINK/ACT LED on the
front of LinkStation is not lit,
your LinkStation is not properly
connected to your network.
Make sure that:
• both LinkStation and the hub, switch, or PC are powered on,
• the Ethernet cable is securely fastened to both devices, and
• the Ethernet cable is not damaged. To verify, try using another
Ethernet cable.
