Get to know the Broadband Router
Back Panel
The diagram (fig1.0) below shows the broadband router’s back panel. The router’s back panel is divided into three sections, LAN, WAN and Reset:
Figure 1.0
1) Local Area Network (LAN) The Broadband router’s 4 LAN ports are where you connect your LAN’s PCs, printer servers,
hubs and switches etc.
2) Wide Area Network (WAN)
The WAN port is the segment connected to your xDSL or Cable modem and is linked to the
Internet. If the modem port is a regular port, you have to use a straight through cable to link the WAN port to the modem. If the modem port is a uplink port, you have to use a crossover cable to link the WAN port to the modem.
Note: See if the WAN LED LNK/ACT light (see front panel) is lit or not. (WAN LED LNK/ACT lit (correct cable); WAN LED LNK/ACT not lit (wrong cable).
3) Printer
The printer port is where you connect your printer.
4) Reset
The Reset button allows you to do one of two things.
1) If problems occur with your router, press the router’s reset button with a pencil tip (for
less than 4 seconds) and the router will re-boot itself, keeping your original configurations.
2) If problems persist or you experience extreme problems or you forgot your password,
press the reset button for longer than 4 seconds and the router will reset itself to the factory default settings (warning: your original configurations will be replaced with the factory default settings)
