Equipment Guide

  • 1. D-Link Routers

    A router is a management device for a network. It connects the client’s internal network to the network of Broadband Digital Solutions. Routers can be wired and wireless at the same time. A router gives out and manages so called IP numbers which is a set of digits used to identify computers and other devices in a network. An example of an IP number is 192.168.0.100. Broadband Digital Solutions offers routers from D-link.

    There is a number of indicator LEDs on the D-Link routers as can be seen in enclosure 1. Looking at the router from the front, from left to right the indicator LEDs are:

    • Power: A solid light indicates a proper connection to the power supply

    • Status: A blinking light indicates that the router is ready

    • WAN: A solid light indicates connection on the WAN (Ethernet) port. This LED blinks during data transmission. If the router is connected directly to the antenna, a solid or blinking light indicates that it is connected to the antenna. If there is no light, make sure the power supply and the antenna cable is properly connected

    • WLAN: A solid light indicates that the wireless local area network is ready. This LED blinks during wireless data transmission

    • Local Network Ports: A solid light indicates a connection to an Ethernet-enabled computer on ports 1-4. This LED blinks during data transmission. If there are cables attached to the local network ports, the corresponding indicator LED should be lit

  • 2. D-Link Wireless Access Points

    Wireless access points enables wireless network. A wireless access point is like a wireless router but it cannot manage IP numbers, it is therefore only a link between router and computers. Broadband Digital Solutions offers wireless access points from D-link. D-link wireless access points are connected to routers using LAN (Local Area Network) cables.

    There is a number of indicator LEDs on wireless access points. Looking at the device from the front from left to right the indicator LEDs are:

    • Power: A solid light indicates a proper connection to the power supply

    • LAN: A solid light indicates connection on the LAN port. This LED blinks during data transmission

    • WLAN: A solid light indicates wireless segment is ready. This LED blinks during wireless data transmission

  • 3. D-Link Switches

    Switches enable internet to multiple computers using LAN cables. A switch is like a router but it cannot manage IP numbers, it is therefore only a link between router and computers. Broadband Digital Solutions offers switches from D-link. D-link switches are connected to routers and computers using LAN cables.

    There is a number of indicator LEDs on wireless access points. Looking at the device from the front from left to right the indicator LEDs are:

    • Power: A solid light indicates a proper connection to the power supply

    • LAN: A solid light indicates connection on the LAN port. This LED blinks during data transmission
