DSL-604+ ADSL Ethernet Router User’s Guide

Network Connection

Complete the connection to the wired networks through the ADSL port and the Ethernet port on the back of the Router. See the diagram on page 4.

Connect ADSL Line

Use the ADSL cable included with the Router to connect it to a telephone wall socket. Plug one end of the cable into the ADSL port (RJ-11 receptacle) on the rear panel of the Router and insert the other end into the RJ-11 wall socket. If you are using a low pass filter device, follow the instructions included with the device or given to you by your service provider. The ADSL connection represents the WAN interface. It is the physical link to the ISP’s network backbone and ultimately to the Internet.

Connect Router to Ethernet

The Router connects to directly to Ethernet workstation or to an Ethernet LAN. The RJ-45 ports on the Router are crossed ports (MDI-X) and can be connected to an Ethernet adapter with a straight-through (MDI-II) port using normal straight-through Ethernet cable. Use crossed cable when connecting the Router to a crossed port (MDI-X) on a switch or hub. Use straight-through cable when connecting it to an uplink (MDI-II) port on a hub or switch. A valid connection is indicated if the Ethernet Link LED indicator(s) on the front panel shine steady green.

The rules governing Ethernet cable lengths apply to the four Ethernet ports. Be sure that the cable connecting the Router to other Ethernet devices does not exceed 100 meters.

Connect the Power

Insert the AC Power Adapter cord into the power receptacle located on the rear panel of the Router and plug the adapter into a nearby power source. You should see the Power LED indicator light up and remain lit.

Factory Reset Button

The Router may be reset to the original factory default settings by depressing the reset button for a few seconds while the device is powered on. Use a ballpoint or paperclip to push down the reset button. Remember that this will wipe out any settings stored in flash memory including IP settings. The factory default IP address of the Router is 192.168.0.1 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
