is a 10/100 Mbps port; a straight-through Ethernet cable must be used when
connecting to the port.
Reset Switch
Depressing the Reset Switch for one or two seconds will power cycle (similar
to unplugging and then plugging in the Modem’s power cord) the Modem. To
restore the Modem’s factory default settings, depress and hold the Reset Switch
for approximately 10 seconds. The reset process will start about 10 seconds after
releasing the Reset Switch, or until the Power light glows amber.
