NOTE: If you are using your Gateway in conjunction with an Ethernet Hub or Switch, refer to the manufacturer’s 
instructions for proper installation and configuration. When using a Microfilter, be certain that the DSL phone cable 
is connected to the “DSL/HPN” non-filtered jack. Please wait until you have received notification from your ISP that 
your DSL line has been activated before installing the Gateway. Westell recommends the use of a surge 
suppressor to protect equipment attached to the power supply. An additional Ethernet cable may be required 
depending on the installation method you are using. Ethernet cables can be purchased at your local computer 
hardware retailer. 
 
 

IMPORTANT: Before you connect via 10/100 Base-T, you must have an available Ethernet card installed in 
your computer. If your Ethernet card does not auto-negotiate, you must set it to half duplex. Refer to the 
Ethernet card manufacturer’s instructions for installing and configuring your Ethernet card.  

 
1.  Connect the DSL phone cable from the connector marked DSL on the rear panel of the Gateway to the DSL-

equipped telephone line jack on the wall. IMPORTANT: Do not use a DSL filter on this connection. You must 
use the phone cord that was provided with the kit. 

2.  Connect the yellow Ethernet cable (provided with your kit) from any one of the Ethernet jacks marked 

ETHERNET on the rear panel of the Gateway to the Ethernet port on your computer. Repeat this step to 
connect up to three additional PCs to your Westell Gateway. 

NOTE: When using the yellow VERSAPORT™2 jack in Private LAN mode, you may connect either the yellow 
Ethernet cable (provided with your kit) or any other Ethernet cable to the VERSAPORT™2  jack as the 
VERSAPORT™2 jack will function as a fifth Ethernet switch. You may also connect to any of the four black 
Ethernet jacks on the rear panel of the Gateway as they serve as an Ethernet switch. 

3.  Connect the power supply cord to the power connector marked 12 VDC  on the rear panel of the Gateway. Plug the 

other end of the power supply into a wall socket, and then turn on the power switch (if it is not already turned on). 

4.  Check to see if the DSL LED is solid green. If the DSL LED is solid green, the Gateway is functioning properly. 

5.  Check to see if the Ethernet LED is solid green. Solid green indicates that the Ethernet connection is functioning 

properly. 

6.  Check to see if the Internet LED is solid green. Solid green indicates that an Internet link has been established. 
 
Congratulations! You have completed the DSL installation for your Gateway. No software installation is required when 
using only an Ethernet connection. You must now proceed to section 7, “Configuring the Gateway for Internet 
Connection.”
