If the LEDs do not illuminate as expected, you may need to configure your Internet
access settings using the information provided by your ISP. If the LEDs still do not
illuminate as expected or the web page is not displayed, see Troubleshooting section
or contact your ISP for assistance.
Default device settings
The device is preconfigured with default settings for use with a typical home or small
office network.
The table below lists some of the most important default settings; these and other
features are described fully in the subsequent chapters. If you are familiar with
network configuration, review these settings to verify that they meet the needs of your

these settings, try using the device without modification, or contact your ISP for
assistance.

default configuration.
