5 | Hardware Installation
The router can be placed anywhere in your office or home. No special wiring or cooling
requirements are necessary. However, you should comply with the following guidelines:
• Place your router on a flat, horizontal surface
• Be sure to place your router away from any heating devices
• Avoid dusty and/or humid areas
1) Setup LAN Connection: Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer’s Ethernet
port to one of the LAN ports of the router.
2) Step WAN Connection: Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into the WAN port on
the back panel of your router, and the other end to the cable/DSL modem. You may
connect an analog modem (optional) to function as a backup connection.
3) Power Up: The router automatically enters the self-testing phase once the power
cord is plugged into a wall outlet. When in self-testing phase, the M1 indicator LED
illuminates for about five seconds to indicate proper connection. The M1 LED flashes
twice as soon as the self-testing phase is completed. After the completion of the
self-testing phase, the M1 LED should flash once per second to indicate that the
router is functioning properly.
