The Back Panels
The Router’s ports and Reset button are located on the back panel of the Router.
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 10 seconds. This will
restore the factory defaults and clear all of the Router’s settings, such as port
forwarding or a new password.
Ports
INTERNET The INTERNET port connects to a cable or DSL modem.
1-4 (ETHERNET) The four ETHERNET ports connect to network devices, such as PCs, print servers, or
additional switches.
POWER The POWER port is where you will connect the included AC power cable.
