Indicator Lights for the TG862
The Touchstone Telephony Gateway has ten LED indicator lights to assist in trou-
bleshooting.
Wiring Problems
If the Telephony Gateway begins flashing all its lights for more than 10 seconds, this
indicates a problem with the telephone wiring — the red and green wires may be
shorted (touching), or there may be undesired voltage on the lines. If this pattern
persists for more than 10 seconds, disconnect the telephone lines from the Tele-
phony Gateway, then call a wiring technician for assistance.

Cable Modem Start Up Sequence
Using the Reset Button
Use the
Reset
button, on the back of the Telephony Gateway, to reset the modem
and perform initialization as if you power cycled the unit. You may need to reset the
Telephony Gateway if you are having problems connecting to the Internet. Using
this button will be rare.
Use a pointed
non-metallic
object to press this button. The photo to the left shows
the location of the
Reset
button. The
Reset
button is recessed to prevent acci-
dental resets.
The diagram on the left shows the location of the reset button.
Resetting the Router to Factory Defaults
To reset the router to factory defaults, press and hold the
Reset
button on the back
of the Telephony Gateway for more than fifteen seconds. This restores the wireless
setup configuration and router configuration parameters to the factory defaults. You
may need to do this if a misconfiguration has locked out all access.
