CONNECTING OTHER COMPUTERS & NETWORK DEVICES
You can connect your Gateway to other computers or set top boxes
using an Ethernet cable, wireless connection (Wi-Fi), or coaxial cable.
ETHERNET
1.
Plug one end of an Ethernet cable into one of the open yellow
Ethernet ports on the back of your Gateway.
2.
Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into an Ethernet
port on the computer.
3.
Repeat these steps for each computer to be connected to
your Gateway using Ethernet. You can connect up to four.
CONNECTING A WI-FI DEVICE USING WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is an easier way for many devices to
set up a secure wireless network connection. Instead of manually
entering passwords or multiple keys on each wireless client, such
as a laptop, printer, or external hard drive, your Gateway creates a
secure wireless network.

In most cases, this only requires the pressing of two buttons – one
on your Gateway and one on the wireless client. This could be either
a built-in button or one on a compatible wireless adapter/card, or
a virtual button in software. Once completed, this allows wireless
clients to join your wireless network.
To initialize the WPS process, you can either press and
release the WPS button located on the front of your
Gateway or use the GUI and press the on-screen button.
You can easily add wireless devices to your wireless network using
the WPS option if your wireless device supports the WPS feature.
To access WPS using the user interface:
1.
From the Main menu, select
Wireless Settings
, then select
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)
.

Use one of the following methods:
If your wireless client device has a WPS button, press
the WPS button on your Gateway, then click the WPS
button on your wireless device (client) to start the WPS
registration process.
If your client device has a WPS PIN, locate the PIN printed
on the client’s label or in the client documentation.
Enter the PIN number in the
Client WPS PIN
field. The
Client WPS PIN
field is located in the section
B - PIN
Enrollment
on the user interface.
Click
Register
.
Alternatively, you can enter the Gateway’s PIN
shown on this screen into the WPS user interface
of your device, if this PIN mode is supported by
your wireless device.
4.
After pressing the WPS button on your Gateway, you have
two minutes to press the WPS button on the client device
before the WPS session times out.
When the WPS button on your Gateway is pressed, the
Wireless light on the front of your Gateway begins flashing
white. The flashing continues until WPS pairing to the client
device completes successfully. At this time, the Wireless
light turns solid white.

If WPS fails to establish a connection to a wireless client
device within two minutes, the Wireless light on your
Gateway flashes red for two minutes to indicate the WPS
pairing process was unsuccessful. After flashing red, the
light returns to solid white to indicate that Wi-Fi is on.
CONNECTING A WI-FI DEVICE USING A PASSWORD
1.

3.
Select your Gateway’s wireless network name (SSID) from
the device’s list of discovered wireless networks.

(WPA2 key) into the device’s wireless settings. Your
Gateway’s default wireless network name and wireless
password are located are on the sticker on the side of your
Gateway.

Verify the changes were implemented by using the device’s
web browser to access a site on the Internet.
6.
Repeat these steps for every device that you are wirelessly
connecting to your Gateway.
