6211 ADSL2+ Router User’s Guide

Connect the ADSL Line and Telephone

Connect your ADSL line to the LINE port on the rear panel of the router, and connect the other end of the line to the

wall phone jack.

Optionally connect your telephone to the port labeled PHONE on the rear panel of the router (Model 6211-I1-x0x

only).

Connect the computers, USB port, or a LAN

There are several ways to connect your PC to the router:

 You can use the supplied Ethernet cable to connect your computer directly to the router. Connect one end of the

Ethernet cable to the port labeled LAN on the rear panel of the router and connect the other end to the Ethernet

port of your computer.

 Alternatively, use the supplied USB cable to connect your computer directly to the router. Connect one end (Type

B) of the USB cable to the USB port on the rear panel of the router and connect the other end (Type A) to a free

USB port on your PC. The Found New Hardware Wizard will open on your PC. See Installing USB Drivers,

below.

 If your LAN has more than one computer, you can attach one end of an Ethernet cable to a hub or a switch

(normally in an uplink port; refer to your hub or switch documentation for instructions) and the other to the

Ethernet port (labeled LAN) on the router.

Note that either a crossover or straight-through Ethernet cable can be used. The router automatically senses the type of

connection that is required.

Connect the power adapter

Connect the AC power adapter to the POWER connector on the back of the device and plug the adapter into a wall

outlet or power strip.

Turn on your computer

Turn on and boot up your PC and any LAN devices, such as hub or switches, and any computers connected to them.

Verify that the router’s LEDs are illuminated as shown in Table 3-1.

Table 3-1 LED Indicators

This LED: ...should be:

POWER

Solid green to indicate that the device is turned on. If this

light is not on, check if the power adapter is attached to the

router and plugged into an AC power source.

STATUS

Solid green to indicate that the router can communicate with

your ISP via ADSL, or flashing when the router is trying to

connect to your ISP.

ACTIVITY

Flashing when the device is sending or receiving data over

the ADSL connection.

LAN

Solid green to indicate that the device can communicate

with your PC via Ethernet, or flashing when the router is

sending or receiving data over Ethernet.

USB

Solid green when connected, flashing when the router is

sending or receiving data.

If the LEDs are illuminated as expected, the router is working properly.
