Chapter 2: System Requirement and Installation

System Requirement

To access the IAD via Ethernet, the host computer must meet the following requirements:

™Equipped with an Ethernet network interface.

™Have TCP/IP installed.

™Allow the client PC to obtain an IP address automatically or set a fixed IP address.

™With a web browser installed: Internet Explorer 5.x or later.

The IAD is configured with the default IP address of 192.168.1.1 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Considering that the DHCP server is enabled by default, the DHCP clients should be able to access the IAD, or the host PC should be assigned an IP address first for initial configuration.

You also can manage the IAD through a web browser-based manager: ADSL ROUTER CONTROL PANEL. The IAD manager uses the HTTP protocol via a web browser to allow you to set up and manage the device.

To configure the device via web browser, at least one properly-configured PC must be connected to the network (either connected directly or through an external hub/switch to the LAN port of the device).

Choosing a place for the IAD

nPlace the IAD close to ADSL wall outlet and power outlet for the cable to reach it easily.

oAvoid placing the device in places where people may walk on the cables. Also keep it away from direct sunlight or heat sources.

pPlace the device on a flat and stable stand.
