Installing the Gateway
Connecting the power adapter
The power adapter supplies power to the gateway.
1. Connect one end of the power adapter to the POWER port on the gateway.
2. Connect the cable’s other end to an electrical outlet.
After the gateway is powered on, the power light blinks green for a moment and then
turns steady green.
Note:
Always use the power adapter that was packaged with the gateway because it
complies with local requirements.
Connecting computers to the gateway
The first computer you connect to the gateway can be used to configure the gateway
settings. You can connect more computers and other devices to the gateway using
wireless or wired Ethernet.
Connecting devices using wired Ethernet
The gateway has four wired Ethernet ports that you can use to connect computers or
other devices.
1. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to one of the Ethernet ports on the
gateway.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port on the computer.
After the gateway recognizes the computer, the
Ethernet
light turns steady green, and
blinks when the computer starts transferring data with the gateway.
