Powering Up your Router

1.Connect the supplied power adapter to the Router power-input plug labeled “Power”.

Note: For safety and performance reasons, only use the supplied power adapter to prevent damage to the Router.

2.After connecting the power adapter and the power source is turned on, the Router’s power icon on the front panel should be on. It might take a few minutes for the Router to fully start up.

3.Turn on your computers. After your computers boot up, the LAN status LED on the front of the Router will be on for each port to which a wired computer is connected. These lights show you the connection and activity status. Now you are ready to configure the Router for ADSL connection.
