Overview
This article will be a quick start guide for the Lane 3000, 5000, and 7000, as they are all similar devices. This will have information on connecting the device to the route, powering on the device, as well as registering the device to your merchant account. Included with your device should be a power adapter and a 3-way connector, which should have two cables that are already attached and a spot to plugin the power adapter.
Step 1: Connect device to power outlet
The device needs its own power source and should have came with a power adapter to plug into an outlet. Ensure this is plugged into a working outlet and that the other end is plugged into the 3-way connector.
Step 2: Connect device to a router
Next the device needs a stable internet connection. Apart of the 3-way connector should be an ethernet cable. This will need to be plugged into an active router, not a PC.

Step 4: Register the device
