NetComm NB712 manual Connecting your G.SHDSL Modem Router, Check the Ethernet Adapter in PC

5 Connecting your G.SHDSL Modem Router

This guide is designed to lead users through the Web Configuration of the G.SHDSL Modem Router in the easiest and quickest way possible. Please follow the instructions carefully.

Note:	There are three methods to configure the router: serial console, Telnet and Web
	Browser. Only one configuration application is used to setup the Modem Router at
	any given time. Select the method you wish to use and continue.

For Web configuration, you can skip step 3.

For Serial Console Configuration, you can skip step 1 and 2.

Step 1: Check the Ethernet Adapter in PC

Make sure that an Ethernet Adapter has been installed in the PC that is to be used for configuration of the router. TCP/IP protocol is necessary for web configuration, so please check that the PC has TCP/IP protocol installed.

Step 2: Check the Web Browser in PC

For Web Configuration, ensure that the PC has a Web Browser installed, such as IE or Netscape.

Note: Suggest IE5.0, Netscape 6.0 or above and 800x600 screen resolution or above.

Step 3: Check the Terminal Access Program

For Serial Console and Telnet Configuration, users need to setup the terminal access program with VT100 terminal emulation.

Step 4: Determine Connection Setting

Users need to know the Internet Protocol supplied by your Service Provider and determine the mode of setting.

Protocol	Selection
RFC1483	Ethernet over ATM
RFC1577	Classical Internet Protocol over ATM (CLIP)
RFC2364	Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM (PPPoA)
RFC2516	Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE)

Different Protocols are required to setup different WAN parameters. Your ISP will advise the correct protocol and the necessary WAN parameters to configure your Modem Router.
