TeraStation Quick Setup TeraStation Quick Setup Connect your cables Plug the power cord into a 120 volt wall socket. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into a hub, router, or switch in your network. 5 TeraStation Quick Setup TeraStation Quick Setup Make sure that the power switch on the rear of the TeraStation is in the ON position, with the “I” symbol pressed down. Press the power button on the front panel. The LEDs will swirl as your TeraStation boots up. After your TeraStation has completed booting up and the LEDs have ceased to swirl, check the LINK/ACT LED on the front of the TeraStation. If it’s lit, then your TeraStation is connected properly, and you can go on to page 8. If it’s not lit, turn to page 7 for troubleshooting. 6 TeraStation Quick Setup TeraStation Quick Setup The TeraStation’s Ethernet port will automatically adjust to use either a Crossover or Patch cable, so you may connect the TeraStation to your network with either type of Ethernet cable. Buffalo Technology doesn’t recommend connecting the TeraStation directly to a PC. Verify that the LINK/ACT LED on the front of TeraStation is lit (see page 6’s picture). If it’s lit, go to page 8 to continue setting up TeraStation. If the LINK/ACT LED is still not lit, try the suggestions below to verify that you’re not suffering from common setup problems. Having problems? Make sure that: • the TeraStation and the router, hub or switch are both powered on, • the Ethernet cable is securely plugged in at both ends, and • the Ethernet cable is not damaged. Verify this by trying a different Ethernet cable. If problems persist, contact our 24/7 technical support at (866) 75 -6 10 (USA & Canada only).
