Appendix C: FAQ

1.How do I configure the router to access Internet by ADSL users?

Step 1: First, configure the ADSL modem in RFC1483 bridge model.

Step 2: Connect the Ethernet cable from your ADSL modem to the WAN port on the router. The telephone cord plugs into the Line port of the ADSL modem.

Step 3: Login to the router, click the menu Network→WAN on the left of your browser. On the WAN screen, select “PPPoE” for the type of WAN connection. Then enter the user name and password in the corresponding field, and finish it by clicking Connect.

Figure C-1

Step 4: If your ADSL lease is in “pay-according-time” mode, select “Connect on Demand” or “Connect Manually” or “Time-based Connecting” for Internet connection mode. Type an appropriate number for “Max Idle Time” or “Period of Time” to avoid wasting paid time. Otherwise, you can select “Connect Automatically” for Internet connection mode.

Figure C-2

)Note:

1)Sometimes the connection can not be disconnected although you specify a time to Max Idle Time, because some applications still visit the Internet continually in the background.

2)If you are a Cable user, please configure the router following the above steps.
