Chapter 3: Getting to Know the ADSL Gateway

Ports and Reset Button on Side Panel

The Gateway’s ports and Reset button are located on a side panel.

Line

The Line port connects to the ADSL line.

Ethernet (1-4)

The Ethernet ports connect to your computers and other network devices.

Reset Button

There are two ways to reset the Gateway's factory defaults. Either press the Reset Button, for
approximately ten seconds, or restore the defaults from the Factory Defaults screen of the
Administration tab in the Gateway’s Web-based Utility.

Power

The Power port is where you will connect the power adapter.

IMPORTANT: Resetting the Gateway to factory
defaults will erase all of your settings
(including Internet connection and other
settings) and replace them with the factory
defaults. Do not reset the Gateway if you want
to retain these settings.
