Getting to Know the Modem

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

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

Front Panel

The front panel of the Modem features five lights (LEDs): Power, DSL, Internet, Ethernet, and USB.

Power Light

The Power light displays the Modem’s current status. If the Power light glows steadily green, the Modem is receiving power and fully operational. When the Power light is rapidly flashing, the Modem is initializing. If the Power LED glows red when the Power cord is connected to a known working outlet power, the Modem has failed to initialize; contact Technical Support.

DSL Light

When the Modem connects to the DSL service, the DSL light will glow solid green. If the DSL light blinks rapidly, the Modem is in training mode. If the DSL light blinks slowly, DSL service has been lost; contact the ISP.
