By default, the Auxiliary port on your Netopia R7200 is enabled for remote console configuration via an external asynchronous modem. This means that all you have to do is connect your modem to the Auxiliary port and configure its settings in the Line Configuration screens under the WAN Configuration menu.

For pinout information on the HD-15 to DB-25 modem cable, see “Pinouts for Auxiliary port modem cable,” in Appendix F, “Technical Specifications and Safety Information.”
