LINK/Act DSL
Flashing when the device is sending or receiving data from
the Internet. It may be unlit, flashing, or appear solid
depending on the current activity.
The initial Argon 4x1 Customer Evaluation Board only supports
the green Power LED (D1705 – TOP). This table is provid ed as
an example of the LEDs that your product may support. You
must edit this table to reflect your own LED configuration.
[CT25]
If the LEDs illuminate as expected, test your Int ernet co nnection
from a LAN computer (and from the USB com puter, if
applicable). To do this, open you r web br owser, and ty pe th e
URL of any external website (such as http://www.yahoo.com
).
The LED labeled LINK/Act DSL should be blinking rapidly and
may appear solid as the device connects to the site.
If the LEDs do not illuminate as expected, you may need to
configure your Internet access settings usi ng the informa tion
provided by your ISP. For details, see Internet Access on page
66. If the LEDs still do not illuminate as ex pected, or t he w eb
page is not displayed, see Troubleshooting Suggesti ons on
page 102, or contact your ISP for assistance.
