Gateway Features

This section contains a quick description of the Gateway’s LEDs and switches.

Power LED - The Power LED displays the Gateway’s current status. If the Power LED glows steadily green, the Gateway is receiving power and fully operational. When the Power LED is rapidly flashing, the Gateway is initializing. If the Power LED is not illuminated when the power adapter is plugged in, the Gateway has suf- fered a critical error and technical support should be contacted.

Internet LED - When the Internet LED glows steadily, the Gateway is connected to the ISP.

Wireless LED - When the Wireless LED glows steadily, the Gateway is ready for wireless networking.

Ethernet Network LED - The Ethernet Network LEDs glow when a network link is established with a computer. A flashing LED signifies network traffic across the specific Ethernet connection.

Reset Switch - Depressing the reset switch for one or two seconds will reset the Gateway. To restore the Gateway’s factory default settings, depress and hold the Reset Switch for approximately 10 seconds.
