Get to know the Broadband Router

Back Panel

The diagram (fig1.0) below shows the broadband router's back panel. The router's back panel is
divided into three sections, LAN, WAN and Reset:
1) Local Area Network (LAN)
The Broadband router'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
2~4 seconds) and the router will re-boot itself, keeping your original configurations.
Every time when you finished configuration the router, please also to the reset to
make the new configuration take effect.
2) If problems persist or you experience extreme problems or you forgot your password,
press the reset button for longer than 5 seconds and the router will reset itself to the
factory default settings (warning: your original configurations will be replaced with
the factory default settings)
