11Gateway. After each problem description, instructions are provided to help you diagnose and solve the problem.

Basic Functioning

If you are experiencing problems, please check if

Both the FSG-3 and the PC are powered on.

The Ethernet Cable is securely fastened to both devices.

The Ethernet Cable is not damaged, to verify this try using another Ethernet Cable.

After you turn on the power of the FSG-3, the following sequence of events should occur:

1.When power is first applied, verify that the Power LED is on.

2.Verify that the Power LED starts blinking within a few seconds, indicating that the self-test procedure is running.

3.After approximately 20 seconds, verify that:

a.The Power LED is OFF and the EL Ring is ON.

b.The LAN port LEDs are lit for any local ports that are connected.

If a port’s LED is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a LAN port is connected to a 100 Mbps device, verify that the port’s LED is green. If the port is 10 Mbps, the LED will be amber.

If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.

PWR LED Not On

If the PWR and other LEDs are off when your FSG-3 is turned on:

Make sure that the power cord is properly connected to your gateway and that the power supply adapter is properly connected to a functioning power outlet.

Check that you are using the 12 V AC power adapter supplied by Freecom for this product.

Try pressing the power button longer

If the error persists, you have a hardware problem and should contact technical support.
