Connecting Cables
Ethernet cables are used to connect the ANG-1100 to your computer or LAN and the Internet. A serial cable can be used to connect the ANG-1105 to your computer for diagnostic purposes.
All interconnections are made at the back of the ANG-1100 (refer to Figure 5). Also, a reset button is located in the rear of the unit.
CAUTION
If you press the Reset button after you have configured your ANG-1100, you will lose your entire configuration. Any settings you supplied must then be re-entered. Do not use the Reset button unless you want the configuration to return to factory defaults; you may want to record your settings before using the Reset button.
Ethernet Connections
The ANG-1102 is equipped with two 8-pin modular RJ-45 Ethernet ports (five ports on the ANG-1105) labeled TRUSTED and EXTERNAL as shown in Figure 5. The trusted port is connected to a computer or hub/switch with networked computers. The external port is connected to a cable or DSL
