2.Make sure that the end of the gray phone cord is still con- nected to the white (DSL) port of the DSL filter you prepared in Step 1. Take the free end of the gray phone cord and plug it into the DSL port on the back of the router, color-coded in gray.

3.Connect the small, cylindrical end of the power adapter to your wireless router port labeled “Power.” Plug the other end of the power adapter into an electrical outlet.

4.Move the router’s power switch to the “ON” position. The DSL light at the front of the modem will turn green in about five minutes. Wait until the green light becomes steady, not blinking. Important: The DSL light must be solid green before you proceed to Step 3.

To connect an Ethernet computer, continue with #5. To connect a wireless computer, skip to #6.

TIP

WHAT IF THE DSL LIGHT DOESN’T TURN SOLID GREEN OR CONTINUES TO BLINK?

Check that you’ve connected everything correctly and that the router’s power light is on. You may also want to make sure the electrical outlet and phone jack are working.
