Adsl Router Quick Set-up Guide

Important

This Guide is intended to get you started quickly. We have made the factory default setting of this router suitable for Australia1. All you need is to follow through the steps we describe here.

This Guide should be read in conjunction with the RTA77x Series ADSL Router User’s Manual 2. It is provided as a PDF file on this CD. To view or print the User’s Manual, go to the previous menu ADSL Router (RTA770) and click the View User Manual button.

Important safety notes can be found on page III of the User’s Manual. Advanced users or users who have other setup preferences should also read the User’s Manual.

If you choose to connect via the Ethernet port, no driver is required. If you choose to connect via the USB port, you will need to load a driver. A driver is only available for Windows 98, ME, 2000 and XP systems. The drivers are found on this CD. To install a driver into Windows, go to the previous menu ADSL Router (RTA770) and click the Modem drivers button.

Notes for this page:

1.In Australia the majority of ADSL subscribers get PPPoA service by default. Your router is preset to meet this requirement. If your ISP specifies the service as PPPoE, an extra step is then required to configure the router in PPPoE mode. Instructions will follow to take you to Section 6 – Configuration for PPPoE service.

2.The User’s Manual available on this CD was written for international users. In Chapter 5 – Connection Mode, only references to PPPoA & PPPoE is relevant to Australian users. Ignore all references to the value of VPI or VCI. In Australia VPI is 8 and VCI is 35. These numbers are preset as factory default. Do not change, or the router will not connect.
