Connecting your Adsl Line

Connection for the Router to the ADSL line varies by country and region. Typically it involves a microfilter or a microfilter with built-in splitter to allow simultaneous use of ADSL service and telephone service on the same telephone line. Please read the following steps carefully and select the appropriate method.

1.If your telephone service and ADSL service are on the same telephone line, ADSL microfilters are needed for each telephone and device, such as answering machine, fax machine, and caller ID display. Additional splitters may be used to separate telephone lines for telephone and the Router. Note: Do not connect the ADSL microfilter between the wall jack and the Router—this will prevent ADSL service from reaching the modem.

2.If your telephone service and ADSL service are on the same telephone line and you are using an ADSL microfilter with built-in splitter, connect the splitter to the telephone wall jack providing ADSL service. Then, connect the telephone cord from the ADSL microfilter RJ11 port generally labeled “DSL” to the gray RJ11 port labeled “DSL line” on the back of your Router. Connect the telephony device to the other port on the ADSL splitter commonly labeled “Phone”. An additional ADSL microfilter is needed for another telephone and device on the same line.

Note: An RJ11 telephone cord is supplied. When inserting an RJ11 plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position correctly.

3.If you have a dedicated ADSL service telephone line with an RJ11 wall jack, simply connect a telephone cord from the wall jack to the gray RJ11 port labeled “DSL line” on the back of your Router.
