2.4 Cabling
The most common problem associated with Ethernet is bad cabling or ADSL line. Make sure that all
connected devices are turned on. On the front of the product is a bank of LEDs. As a first check, to
verify that the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify that you are using the
proper cables.
The product’s LAN port is wired just like a Network Adapter’s port. From the product directly to a
PC, the cable should be an Ethernet crossover cable. From the product to a hub or switch, the cable
should be an Ethernet straight through cable to a normal hub/switch port, or an Ethernet crossover
cable to an uplink port.
Since the product cannot auto-detect whether your cable is correct or not, please make
sure you are using the right cable to a PC or a Hub.
