Basic Functioning

After you turn on power to the router, the following sequence of events should occur:

When power is first applied, verify that the Power LED is on (see "The Router's Front Panel" on page 1-2 for an illustration and explanation of the LEDs).

Verify that the Test LED lights within a few seconds, indicating that the self-test procedure is running.

After approximately 10 seconds, verify that:

The Test LED is not lit.

The LAN port LEDs are lit for any local ports that are connected.

The ADSL Internet port LED is lit.

If a port's LED is lit, a link has been established to the connected device. If a LAN port is connected to a 100 Mbps device, verify that the port's LED is green. If the port is 10 Mbps, the LED will be amber.

If any of these conditions does not occur, refer to the appropriate following section.
