Thank you for choosing the Linksys RangePlus Wireless
Router. The Router lets you access the Internet via a
wireless connection or through one of its four switched
ports. You can also use the Router to share resources
such as computers, printers and files. A variety of security
features help to protect your data and your privacy while
online. Security features include WPA2 security, a Stateful
Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall and NAT technology.
Configuring the Router is easy using the provided browser-
based utility.

and will stay on while the Router is powered

LED will flash. When the diagnostic is complete,
the LED will be solidly lit.

corresponding with the numbered ports on the
Router’s back panel, serve two purposes. If the
