Getting to Know the Gateway

This section contains a quick description of the Gateway’s lights, ports, etc.

The Gateway contains several indicator lights (LEDs) on its front panel and a series of ports on its rear panel.

Power Light

The Power light displays the Gateway’s current status. If the Power light glows steadily green, the Gateway is receiving power and fully operational. When the Power light flashes rapidly, the Gateway is initializing. If the Power light is not illuminated when the Power cord is plugged in and the Power switch is turned on, the Gateway has suffered a critical error and technical support should be contacted.

DSL Light

The DSL light illuminates when the Gateway is connected to a DSL line. When it flashes, the Gateway’s built-in DSL modem is training for your DSL service.
