Figure 1. Connecting to the PC

1.Connect the PC’s Ethernet port to LAN (ETH 0/0) port of the SmartNode 4650 ADSL2+. The SmartNode 4650 ADSL2+ Series is equipped with Auto-MDX Ethernet ports, so you can use straight-through Ethernet cables for host or hub/switch connections. (See figure 1.)

2.The SmartNode comes with a built-in DHCP server to simplify configuration. Therefore, to automatically configure the PC for IP connectivity to the SmartNode, configure the laptop PC for DHCP. The SmartNode will provide the PC with an IP address.

3.Check the connection to the SmartNode by executing the ping command from the PC command window as follows:

ping 192.168.1.1

3.0Configuring the desired IP address

3.1Factory-default IP settings

The factory default configuration for the Ethernet interface IP addresses and netmasks are listed in table 1. Both Ethernet interfaces are activated upon power-up. LAN interface ETH 0/1 (LAN) provides a default DHCP server. The WAN interface uses DHCP client to get the IP address and netmask automatically from the service provider.

Table 1. Factory default IP address and network mask configuration

Item	IP Addresss	Network Mask
WAN interface DSL port (DSL 0/0)	DHCP	DHCP
LAN interface Ethernet 1 (ETH 0/0)	192.168.1.1	255.255.255.0
DHCP server address range (LAN)	192.168.1.10-192.168.1.19	255.255.255.0

If these addresses match with those of your network, go to section 4.0 “Connecting the SmartNode to the network” on page 4. Otherwise, continue with the following sections to change the addresses and

network masks.
