The Front Panel
10/100 16-Port VPN Router
Internet/Act LEDs 1 and 2 are labeled Internet because they can be used only as
Internet ports.
DMZ Orange. The DMZ LED serves two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Router is
connected to a DMZ host through the DMZ port. If the LED is flashing, the Router is
actively sending or receiving data over that port.
Ports
1-13 (LAN) These thirteen LAN Ethernet ports connect to network devices, such as PCs, print
servers, or additional switches.
LAN ports 9-13 can also be used as Internet ports.
Internet (1-7) The seven Internet Ethernet ports connect to an Internet device, such as a cable or DSL
modem.
Internet ports 1 and 2 are labeled Internet because they can be used only as Internet
ports. When used as an additional Internet port, it connects to a cable or DSL modem.
Internet ports 3-7 can also be used as LAN ports.
DMZ The DMZ Ethernet port connects to a hub, switch, or public server.
Button
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 with
a paper clip or a pencil tip for four seconds. This performs a warm reset, similar to
rebooting your PC. You will see the Diag LED flash slowly until the warm reset is
complete.
If you are experiencing extreme problems with the Router and have tried all other
troubleshooting measures, press and hold in the Reset button for ten seconds. This will
restore the factory defaults and clear all of the Router’s settings, such as port range
forwarding entries or a new password. You will see the Diag LED flash quickly until the
factory defaults have been restored.
