Manual Setup
Use the topics and procedures below to manually set up your modem router.
Understanding ADSL Microfilters
ADSL technology uses the same wires as your telephone service. However, ADSL adds signals to
the telephone lines which create noise in the telephone service. You must use ADSL microfilters to
filter out these signals before they reach your telephone.
ADSL Microfilter
Each device such as a telephone, fax machine, answering machine, or caller ID display will require
an ADSL microfilter.
ADSL Microfilter with Built-In Splitter
Use an ADSL microfilter with built-in splitter when there is a single wall outlet which must
provide connectivity for both the modem router and telephone equipment.
If you purchased the modem router in a country where a microfilter is not included, you
must acquire one.
Figure 4
Do not connect the modem router to the ADSL line through a microfilter unless the
microfilter is a combination microfilter/splitter specifically designed for this purpose.
Doing so will prevent block your connection to the Internet. If you have any doubts
about this, connect the modem router directly to the ADSL line.

Connecting the Router to the Internet
Computers Set to DHCP
For the initial connection to your router, your computer has to be set to automatically get its
TCP/IP configuration from the router via DHCP. This is usually the case. The NETGEAR Smart
Wizard CD automatically takes care of this requirement. For manual setup, refer to the
documentation that came with your computer.
Manually Setting Up Your Modem Router
There are four steps to setting up your modem router:
1.
Install ADSL filters on the phone lines.
2.
Connect the modem router to the ADSL line.
3.
Log in to the modem router.
4.
Connect to the Internet.
Follow the steps below to connect your router to your network. Before you begin, locate the ADSL
configuration information from your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
1.
Connect the ADSL filter.
a.
You need to install an ADSL filter for every telephone that uses the same phone line as
your modem router. Select the filter that came with your modem router.
If you purchased the modem router in a country where an ADSL filter is not
included, you must acquire one.
1.
One-Line Filter: Use with a phone or fax machine.
2.
Splitter: Use with a one-line filter to share an outlet with a phone and the modem router
.
3.

to the Ethernet adapter
in your computer.

Now, turn on your computer. If software usually logs you in to your Internet connection,
do not run that software. Cancel it if it starts automatically.
d.
Connect the power adapter to the modem router and plug it in to a power outlet. Verify the
following (see
Figure 10 on page 11
):
1. The power light is lit after turning on the modem router.
2. The Ethernet light is on.
3. The ADSL light is green, indicating you are connected to the ADSL network.
Improperly connecting a filter to your modem router will block your ADSL
connection.
