■ 2.5G Ethernet port (RJ-45 Connector) - WAN port
■ USB 3.0 (Type A Connector) -
To connect the Ethernet interfaces, refer to
WAN port (labeled 2.5G WAN) until there is an audible "click".
The USB 3.0 host port is reserved for future use. This port currently provides +5 VDC for charging external devices.
Resetting the Gateway
A reset button is available if the 841-t6 needs to be rebooted or restored to factory defaults. To reboot the 841-t6, press the Reset button on the
back panel of the device for less than 5 seconds. To reset the device to factory defaults, press the Reset button for 5 seconds or more.
Activating WiFi Protected Setup™
WiFi Protected Setup™ (WPS) is a standard means for creating secure connections between the 841-t6 and various wireless client devices.
This feature is designed to simplify the pairing process between the devices. Perform the following steps to activate WPS:
1. Press the WPS button on the back of the 841-t6 for less than 5 seconds for 5GHz or more than 5 seconds for 2.4GHz.
2. The WPS LED on the back of the unit is steady green when WPS is on and flashing green when WPS is passing traffic.
3. WPS search mode continues for 2 minutes. The next step must be completed before the 2 minutes have lapsed.
4. In the WiFi settings for the LAN device to be connected to the local network, locate and select the name of the wireless network (SSID) to
which you want to connect. The 841-t6 should complete the connection without requiring the password to be manually entered.
