Check 3

Check the Data Rate at the bottom of the Status page.

If the numbers are approximately matched with the ADSL profile provided by your ISP (e.g. downstream 2Mbps and upstream 512kbps), that means the device is synchronized properly with the ISP and the quality of the ADSL line is essentially normal.

If the Data Rate number is N/A, it stands for the modem router is not synchronized with your ISP. Please go to Resolution 3 – For ADSL Light Off.
