Do you need a Line Filter or Splitter?

Micro-filters are used to prevent common telephone equipment, such as phones, answering machines and fax machines, from interfering with your ADSL service (and visca versa). If your ADSL-enabled phone line is sharing a line with any other equipment then you will need to use one micro-filter for each connected device.

Alternatively, ADSL Splitters may be installed with an ADSL line installation. Splitters separate the ADSL and telephone service lines at the point they enter the building, meaning that filters will not be required on each device. Splitters may only be installed by a qualified line technician.

Step 2 – Install the Modem Driver

1.After hardware installation is complete, power on your computer to start Windows XP/2000. Windows will detect the newly-installed modem and a ‘found new hardware’ screen will appear. Click ‘Cancel’.

2.Insert the NB100 CD-ROM and allow the Auto-run wizard to start up. Then select Auto-Install and click Next

3.Enter your Broadband ADSL Account User Name and Password

4.Re-enter password to confirm

At this point, installation is complete and you will be prompted to re-start. Click OK to confirm and wait for your computer to re-start. This might take a minute.

NOTE: If in the unlikely event you need to establish a PPPoA connection, rather than the standard PPPoE connection, choose Manual Install instead of Auto Install, and browse to the PPPoA driver. Then follow the instructions (below) for using the ADL Modem Analyzer Utility, Configuration Tab, to select the PPPoA driver.
