1-8 (LAN) Green. The LAN LED serves two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Router is
connected to a device through the corresponding port (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8). If the LED
is flashing, the Router is actively sending or receiving data over that port.
Reset Button The Reset button can be used in one of two ways:
If the Router is having problems connecting to the Internet, press the Reset button for
just a second with a paper clip or a pencil tip. This is similar to pressing the Reset
button on your PC to reboot it.
If you are experiencing extreme problems with the Router and have tried all other
troubleshooting measures, press and hold in the Reset button for 30 seconds. This will
restore the factory defaults and clear all of the Router’s settings, such as port
forwarding or a new password.
