Connect the unit to the Ethernet (patch cable to a switch, or a cross-over cable to a PC).
Plug the power adapter in to a power outlet and connect it to the HWg-STE power connector.
The green
Power & Mode
LED in the RJ45 connector lights up.
If the Ethernet connection works properly, the

and then flashes whenever data transfer takes place (activity indication).
After power up, the
LINK
LED flashes rapidly to indicate IP address negotiation over DHCP.
