1. Ensure the DSA-3100 is power off.

Please check the DSA-3100 front panel power indicator is off.

2. WAN port connection

Use

10/100BaseT network cable

to connect the Unmanaged Network. The Unmanaged

Network’s interface maybe ADSL Router’s LAN port, Cable Modem’s LAN port or Intranet

Switch port.

3. Private LAN port connection

Private LAN port is connected to a Trusted Network without Public LAN. Use

10/100BaseT

network cable

to connect your Admin PC, or Web Server, Mail Server with internal Switch or

Hub that connected to the Private LAN Port on DSA-3100. If you want to directly connect the

DSA-3100 to this PC or the Server or the wireless AP, you have to use a Cross Over Line.

4. Public LAN port connection

Public LAN port is connected to a Managed Network with Public LAN. Use

10/100BaseT

network cable

to connect your Client PC with the internal Switch or Hub that connected to the

Public LAN Port on DSA-3100. If you want to directly connect the DSA-3100 to this PC or the

wireless AP, you have to use a Cross Over Line.

5. Power up

Connect the supplied power adapter to the DSA-3100 and power up.

6. Check the LED

The Power Indicator and WAN Indicator should be ON, if the corresponding WAN Port was

connected to an Unmanaged Network.

c. Configure PCs on Your LAN

After DSA-3100 installation, for each PC, the following procedure may need to be configured:

• TCP/IP network setting

• Internet Access configuration

1. TCP/IP network setting

If Your PC is Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP, uses the default TCP/IP network setting, no

changes need to be made. Just restart your PC.

DSA-3100 will act as a DHCP Server, automatically providing a suitable IP Address (and

related information) to each PC when the PC starts.

For all non-Server versions of Windows, the default TCP/IP network setting is to act as a

DHCP client. In Windows, it called

Obtain an IP address automatically

.

If using fixed IP Address on your LAN, or you wants to check your TCP/IP setting, refer to

Appendix 1 - Windows TCP/IP Setup.

2. Internet Access Configuration

To configure your PCs to use the DSA-3100 for Internet access, follow this procedure.

For Windows 9x/2000
