Wi-Fi Protected Setup (White/Orange): Can be used to automatically
configure wireless security for client devices that support Wi-Fi Protected
Setup. The button shines white while wireless security is enabled. It shines
steady orange if there is an error during the Wi-Fi Protected Setup process.
Power (Green/Red/Orange): Indicates the status of the following:
Power: The LED shines steady green and stays on while the router is
powered on. If the LED shines steady red, verify that the correct power
adapter is used. If the LED remains red, contact your service provider for
support.
Self-diagnostic test: During boot-up, the Power LED flashes green to indicate
that the self-diagnostic test is in progress. When the test is complete, the LED
shines steady green.
Initialization of a USB modem: The Power LED flashes green and orange
when initialization is in progress. After the device initializes, the LED shines
steady green. If the device fails to initialize, the LED continues to flash green
and orange.
Mobile network connection: If a compatible USB modem is installed, the
mobile network connection is used as a failover when an Ethernet connection
is unavailable. The Power LED indicates the status of the mobile network
connection:
•
Steady Green: The mobile network connection is not in use.
• Flashing Orange: The WRP400 is attempting to connect to the Internet
through the mobile network connection.
• Steady Orange: The WRP400 is connected to the Internet through the
mobile network connection.
• Continuous Flashing Orange: The WRP400 failed to connect to the
Internet through the mobile network connection and is trying again.
Phone 1-2 (Green): The LED shines steadily when an active line is registered
to the corresponding phone port. The LED slowly flashes when voicemail
messages are waiting.
Wireless (Green): The LED shines steadily when the wireless feature is
enabled. It flashes when the router is actively sending or receiving data over
the wireless network.
Ethernet 1-4 (Green): The LED shines steadily to show that a device is
connected through the corresponding port. It flashes to indicate network
activity over that port.
Internet (Green): This LED shines steadily when an Internet connection is
made through the Internet port. It flashes to indicate network activity over the
Internet port.

Installing the WRP400
There are three ways to place the WRP400:
• Horizontal Placement: The router has four rubber feet on the bottom panel.
Place the Router on a level surface near an electrical outlet.
• Vertical Placement: The Router has a stand on the side panel opposite to
the antenna. Rotate the stand 90 degrees, and place the Router on a level
surface near an electrical outlet.
• Wall-Mounting Placement: The Router has four wall-mount slots on its back
panel. To mount the router on a wall, follow these instructions:
– Choose a wall that is smooth, flat, dry, and sturdy. Make sure that an
electrical outlet is nearby.
– Obtain mounting hardware. Suggested hardware is illustrated below
(not true to scale).
4-5 mm 1-1.5 mm
– Drill two holes, 6 cm (about 2-23/64 in.) apart. Insert a screw into each
hole and leave 3 mm (about 1/8 in.) of the head exposed.
– Position the router so that two of the wall-mount slots are over the two
screws. Slide the Router down until the screws fit snugly into the wall-
mount slots.
