A. First, connect the power adapter to the receptor at the back
panel of the DI-LB604 and then plug the other end of the power
adapter to a wall outlet or power strip. The Power LED will turn
ON to indicate proper operation.
B. 1. Power off your Cable or DSL modem; some devices
may not have an on/off switch and will require you to
unplug the power adapter. Now, the DI-LB604 should be
powered on and the Cable/DSL modem should be turned off.
2. Cable/DSL modem (Power Off) – DI-LB604 (Power On)
Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack located
on the Cable/DSL modem. After the Ethernet cable is
securely connected, power on the Cable/DSL modem
by turning on the unit or plugging in the power adapter.
3. Cable/DSL modem (Power On) – DI-LB604 (Power On)
Insert the other end of the Ethernet cable to the WAN PORT on
the back panel of the DI-LB604. The WAN LED light will illuminate
to indicate proper connection. If the WAN LED is not illuminated,
please go back to step B1 and repeat the instructions.
C. Insert an Ethernet cable to LAN port 1 on the back panel of the
DI-LB604 and an available Ethernet port on the network adapter
in the computer you will use to configure the DI-LB604. The LED
light for LAN Port 1 will illuminate to indicate proper connection.
(Note: The LAN Ports on the DI-LB604 are Auto-MDI/MDIX.
