Chapter 3: Getting to Know the Wireless-G Bridge for Phone Adapters
Overview
The Bridge has two LEDs, a Power port, and a permanently attached cable.
The LEDs
The Bridge has two LEDs to indicate network activity. (Not all versions of the Bridge have LEDS; however, all Bridges work the same, with or without LEDs.)
Ethernet | Green. The Ethernet LED lights up when the Bridge has an active connection to the wired network. It |
| flashes when the Bridge is experiencing wired network activity. The LED is not lit when the Bridge |
| has no active connection to the wired network. |
Wireless | Green. The Wireless LED lights up when the Bridge is connected to the wireless network. It flashes |
| when the Bridge is experiencing wireless network activity. The LED is not lit the Bridge is not |
| connected via wireless. |
When the Bridge’s firmware is being upgraded, the Ethernet and Wireless LEDs alternate flashing.
The Port
The Bridge does not include its own power adapter; instead, it uses the power adapter of the Linksys phone adapter or IP phone.
Power | The Power port only supports a 5 V, 2 A, DC power adapter, which was included with your Linksys |
| phone adapter or IP phone. Do NOT connect any other type of power adapter to the Bridge. |
IMPORTANT: Using the wrong power adapter may cause malfunction or damage your equipment.
