Get to know the Wireless VPN Firewall Router

Back Panel

The diagram (fig1.0) below shows the VRT-401G's back panel. The router's back panel is divided
into three sections, LAN, WAN and Reset:
1) Local Area Network (LAN)
The VRT-401G's 4 LAN ports are where you connect your LAN's PCs, printer servers, hubs
and switches etc.
2) Wide Area Network (WAN)
The WAN port is the segment connected to your xDSL or Cable modem and is linked to the
Internet.
3) Reset
The Reset button allows you to do one of two things.
1) If problems occur with your router, press the router's reset button with a pencil tip (for
less than 4 seconds) and the router will re-boot itself, keeping your original
configurations.
2) If problems persist or you experience extreme problems or you forgot your password,
press the reset button for longer than 4 seconds and the router will reset itself to the
factory default settings (warning: your original configurations will be replaced with
the factory default settings)

Front Panel
