1. Attach the antenna and point it up.
2. Do one of the following for your Internet connection:
a. DSL 1,2: Use a telephone cable to connect your Device’s DSL1 port to a
telephone jack (or the DSL or modem jack on a splitter if you have one).
b. If the DSLAM at your ISP supports DSL bonding function, you can
connect DSL1 and DSL2 to two seperate telephone jacks. This provides
increased throughput at longer distances. You will need to access the
Web Configurator and enable the DSL Bonding function in the
Broadband > DSL screen. See the User’s Guide for more information.
c. ETHERNET WAN: If you already have a broadband router or modem, use
an Ethernet cable to connect the ETHERNET WAN port to it for Internet
access.
3. ETHERNET: Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to an Ethernet
port for initial configuration and/or Internet access.
4. HPNA: (VMG4380-B10A only) Use a coaxial cable to connect to a coaxial
outlet and relay Internet traffic throughout your house through coaxial
cabling.
5. USB: Connect a USB (version 2.0 or lower) memory stick or a USB hard
drive for file sharing. Use a USB extension cable if the stick is too big to fit.
6. POWER: Use the provided power adaptor to connect the POWER socket to
an appropriate power source. Make sure the power at the outlet is on. After
connecting the power adaptor, look at the lights on the front panel.
• The POWER light blinks while your Device starts up and then stays on
once it is ready.
• Each LAN light stays on if the corresponding Ethernet port is properly
connected and blinks when there is traffic.
• The ETHERNET WAN light stays on if the ETHERNET WAN port is
properly connected and blinks when there is traffic.

• The USB light turns on when your Device detects a connected USB
device.
• The HPNA light (VMG4380-B10A only) stays on if the HPNA port is
properly connected and blinks when there is traffic.
• The DSL1,2 lights are green when your Device has an ADSL connection.
They are orange when you have a VDSL connection. If you are not using
DSL bonding function, only DSL1 light will be on.
• The WLAN / WPS light flashes green when WLAN is activated and orange
while WPS is in process. It stays on green when the wireless LAN is ready
and blinks when there is traffic.
• The INTERNET light turns on when the gateway is able to access the
Internet and will blink when your Device is sending or receiving data.
If the lights do not come on, check your connections and inspect your cables for
damage. If the lights are still off, contact technical support.
Set Up a Wireless Network
You can set up a wireless network using the following methods:
Using Wireless Protected Setup (WPS)

of your device and use the provided information.
Place the devices you want to connect near one
another.
Press the WPS button on the Device.
The WPS light blinks green and orange.

The Web Configurator
The Web Configurator is a web browser tool that allows you to configure the
Device. The computer and the Device need to be in the same IP address range
to use this tool.
1. Open your browser and enter http://192.168.1.1 (the Device’s default IP
address) as the address.
2. Enter the default user name admin and password 1234. Click Login.
If the login screen does not open, make sure you allow web browser
pop-up windows, JavaScript and Java permissions. Your computer
should be also set to get an IP address automatically from a DHCP
server. See the appendices in your User’s Guide for more
information.
