2.4 Cabling

One of the most common causes of problems is bad cabling or ADSL line(s).

Make sure that all connected devices are turned on. On the top of the product is

a bank of LEDs. Verify that the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are

not, verify that you are using the proper cables.

Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your

Planet router (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) have a line

filter connected between them and the wall socket (unless you are using a

Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician).

Also, ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the right way around.

Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can cause

problems with your ADSL connection, including causing frequent disconnections.
