The procedure that follows assumes that you have a unit that is configured with factory defaults.
To configure the modem via HTML:
1On the main page, look in the Configuration Summary table and click on the title Encapsulation Protocol.
2If your service provider has specified a different VPI/VCI number to use, enter the numbers in the VPI and VCI fields. Otherwise, enter the default VPI and VCI values.
