cord to a wall outlet or power strip.
2. Turn on the power switch on the rear panel of the DFL-1100. The Power LED will illuminate.
3. Power off your broadband modem. Some modems may not have an on/off switch and will require you to unplug the
power adapter.
4. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet jack of your broadband modem and then connect the other end of the
Ethernet cable to the WAN port on the front panel of the DFL-1100.
5. Power on the broadband modem. It may take a few seconds for your modem to initialize but then the WAN port LED
should illuminate to indicate a proper connection.

cable to your network hub or switch. The LAN port LED should illuminate to indicate a proper connection.

connected). Be sure that the configuration PC is setup to obtain an IP address automatically. It may be necessary to
release and renew the IP address.
