Changing Your ADSL Settings

Note: For information about how to install ADSL filters, see the NETGEAR Router Setup Manual.

The default ADSL settings of your modem router work fine for most ISPs. However, some ISPs use a specific multiplexing method and virtual circuit number for the virtual path identifier (VPI) and virtual channel identifier (VCI).

Note: You must use the Setup Wizard to select the correct country for the default ADSL settings to work. The default settings are set for Telkom ADSL.

If your ISP provided you with a multiplexing method or VPI/VCI number, then enter the setting:

1.From the main menu, select ADSL Settings.

2.In the Multiplexing Method drop-down list, select LLC-basedor VC-based. The default is LLC-based.
