Prestige 324 Intelligent Broadband Sharing Gateway
Hardware Installation & Initial Setup

CON/AUX
switch
CON/AUX port
Just connect this port if you want to configure the Prestige using the SMT via console
port or set up a backup WAN connection.
Set this switch to the “CON” side to use the CON/AUX port as a regular console port for
local device configuration and management. Connect the 9-pin male end of the console
cable to the console port of the Prestige and the other end to a serial port (COM1, COM2
or other COM port) of your computer. You can use an extension RS-232 cable if the
enclosed one is too short. Your computer should have a terminal emulation
communications program (such as HyperTerminal) set to VT100 terminal emulation, no
parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no data flow and 9600 bps port speed.
Set this switch to the “AUX” side to use the CON/AUX port as an auxiliary dial-up WAN
connection. Connect the 9-pin male end of the RS-232 Y-cable to the CON/AUX port and
use the included CON/AUX converter on the other 9-pin end of the cable to connect to a
modem or TA.
Reset
You only need to use this button if you’ve forgotten the Prestige’s password. It returns
the Prestige to the factory defaults (password is 1234, LAN IP address 192.168.1.1,
terminal emulation settings set to VT100 terminal emulation, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop
bit, no data flow and 9600 bps port speed).
LAN 10/100M
Connect these auto-negotiating (10/100M) auto-sensing LAN ports to local computers or
to an external hub using straight-through Ethernet or crossover Ethernet cables.
Auto-
sensing means that these ports can automatically adjust to the type of Ethernet cable
you use.
WAN 10/100M
Connect your Cable/DSL modem to this port with the cable that came with your modem.
If you want to connect a cable modem, you must connect the coaxial cable from your
cable service to the threaded coaxial cable connector on the back of the cable modem.
Connect an DSL modem to the DSL wall jack. The WAN connection cable should be
STP (Shielded Twisted Pair).
2.3
Turning on Your Prestige
After you’ve made the connections, connect the power cable to a power supply and look at the front panel
LEDs. The
PWR
LED blinks while performing system testing and then turns steady on if the testing is
successful.
The
CON/AUX
,
LAN
, and
WAN
LEDs turn on if they are properly connected.
