The Front Panel

The Router’s LEDs, which inform you about network activities, are located on the front panel.

 

Figure 3-2: Front Panel

 

Power

Green. The Power LED lights up when the Router is powered on. If the LED is flashing, the

 

 

Router is booting up or running a system self-test.

 

WLAN

Green. The WLAN LED lights up whenever there is a successful wireless connection. If the LED

 

 

is flashing, the Router is actively sending or receiving data over the wireless network.

 

Ethernet 1-4

Green. The Ethernet LED serves two purposes. If the LED is solidly lit, the Router is connected

 

 

to a device through the corresponding port (Ethernet 1, 2, 3, or 4). If the LED is flashing, the

 

 

Router is sending or receiving data over that port.

 

Phone 1-2

Green. The Phone LED is solidly lit when a telephone or fax machine has a registered

 

 

connection to AT&T through the corresponding port (Phone 1 or Phone 2). (The connection is

 

 

registered if your Internet phone service account is active.) This LED is not lit when there is no

 

 

registered connection. It flashes when the phone is being used or an incoming call has been

 

 

detected.

 

Internet

Green. The Internet LED lights up when the Router is connected to your cable or DSL modem.

 

 

If the LED is flashing, the Router is sending or receiving data over the Internet port.
