Step 1
Step 2
Check whether the POWER indicator on the terminal is solid on.
If the POWER indicator is off, perform further checks as follows:
1. Ensure that the terminal is turned on.
2. Ensure that electricity comes from the socket and that the power input
from the socket meets the requirements described on the label of the
terminal power adapter. If the voltage is unsteady, for example, if the
voltage is too high or too low, do not use the terminal. Wait until the
voltage restores to its normal level, and then use the terminal.
3. Ensure that the terminal is properly connected to the socket through
the power adapter.
If the POWER indicator is still off, contact an authorized maintenance
center.
After powering on the terminal, wait for about three minutes. Then, check
whether the ADSL indicator on the terminal is solid on.
If the ADSL indicator blinks for a long time, perform further checks as
follows:
1. Ensure that telephone lines are properly connected. Pay special
attention to the connections between the telephone lines and the
splitter.
2. Ensure that the terminal or telephone lines are far from the electric
appliances that generate strong magnetic or electric fields. Replace
telephone lines when necessary.

Settings dialog box, ensure that the Use a proxy server for your
LAN (These settings will not apply to dial-up or VPN
connections). check box is cleared.
Step 8
What can I do if Web pages often cannot be displayed during Web page browsing
and can be displayed after the terminal is restarted?
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
What can I do if sometimes the terminal cannot access the Internet through a WLAN
connection or if the WLAN connection is unsteady?
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Try to access multiple Web sites to check whether the term inal can acc ess
these Web sites.
If the terminal still cannot access Web sites, contact your network service
provider.
Ensure that the terminal and other devices, such as telephones or fax
machines, are connected to telephone lines through a splitter.
For details about how to install a splitter, see the related description in the
manual.
Ensure that telephone lines are properly connected.
If the telephone lines are improperly connected, the stability of the
network connection is affected.
Check the positions of your terminal and your computer. Ensure that they
are far from electric appliances, such as microwave ovens, refrigerators,
or cordless telephones, that generate strong magnetic or electric fields.
If the problem persists, contact your service provider.
Check the positions of your terminal and your computer. Ensure that they
are far from the electric appliances, such as microwave ovens,
refrigerators, or cordless telephones, that generate strong magnetic or
electric fields.
Place your terminal in an open area.
Although radio signals can pass through obstacles, the transmission
effects of WLAN radio signals are affected if radio signals pass through
too many obstacles, such as cement or wooden walls.
Place your computer close to your terminal.
If your computer is far from your terminal, the effects of the WLAN are
affected.

Step 4
Step 5
Place your terminal and computer in another direction.
Do not use your terminal to access the WLAN during thunderstorms.
After a broadband terminal is installed, does Internet access degrade call quality or
do telephone calls lower the Internet access rate?
No. The terminal uses the frequency division multiplexing (FDM) and splitter
technologies to separate voice signals from data signals. Although the two types of
signals are transmitted through one telephone line, they are carried by different
frequency bands. Therefore, they do not interfere with each other. In this case, you
can make a telephone call and access the Internet simultaneously, without degrading
call quality or lowering the Internet access rate.

Blinking
This indicator has three blinking modes that indicate
three states.
z The indicator periodically blinks and is on for 0.2s
and off for 0.1s, which indicates that the WPS
function is activated and that a wireless terminal
can connect to the HG620.
z The indicator periodically blinks and is on for 0.1s
and off for 0.1s, which indicates that a wireless
terminal fails to connect to the HG620.
The indicator is on for 0.1s and then off for 0.1s. After
this process repeats for four times, the indicator is off
for 0.5s. Then, the indicator blinks as the preceding
process, which indicates a wireless terminal is set ting
up a connection to the HG620.
