A. First, connect the power adapter to the receptor at the back panel
of the DI-724U 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 a on/off switch and will require you to unplug
the power adapter. Now, the DI-724U should be powered
on and the Cable/DSL modem should be turned off.
2. Cable/DSL modem (Power Off) – DI-724U (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-724U (Power On) Insert
the other end of the Ethernet cable to the WAN PORT on the
back panel of the DI-724U. 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-724U and an available Ethernet port on the network adapter in
the computer you will use to configure the DI-724U. The LED light
for LAN Port 1 will illuminate to indicate proper connection. (Note:
The LAN Ports on the DI-724U are Auto-MDI/MDIX. Meaning
you can use a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable to the
LAN Ports.)
