ADSL Modem Router Setup Manual

Internet Configuration Requirements

Depending on how your ISP set up your Internet account, you need one or more of these configuration parameters to connect your router to the Internet:

Virtual Path Identifier (VPI)/Virtual Channel Indentifier (VCI) parameters

Multiplexing Method

Host and Domain Names

ISP Login Name and Password

ISP Domain Name Server (DNS) Addresses

Fixed or Static IP Address

Your ISP should have provided you with all the information needed to connect to the Internet. If you cannot locate this information, you can ask your ISP to provide it.

Two Setup Methods: 1) Smart Wizard Setup 2) Manual Setup

You have two methods available for setting up your ADSL modem router:

Smart Wizard Setup: Use the Smart Wizard on the CD to assist you with setting up your ADSL modem router.

This option is the easiest. The Smart Wizard on the CD guides you through the setup process, automating many of the steps, and verifying that necessary conditions exist and that steps you perform have been successfully completed.

This option requires a PC running Microsoft Windows 98SE or higher.

Manual Setup: Manually set up your ADSL modem router.

This option is best if you are replacing an existing ADSL modem router or are technically knowledgeable.

Use this option if you are using a computer that does not run Microsoft Windows.

The manual setup procedures are documented in this manual.

Use the setup option that best suites you.

Smart Wizard Setup

The Smart Wizard setup process should take about 20 minutes to complete.
