Chapter 2

Hardware Installation and PC Setup

Overview

This chapter provides basic instructions for connecting the router to a computer or a LAN and to

the Internet using DSL. The first part provides instructions to set up the hardware, and the second

part describes how to prepare your PC for use with the router. Refer to Chapter 3, Using the Web

Interface for configuration instructions.

It is assumed that you have already subscribed to DSL service with your telephone company or

other Internet service provider (ISP).

Connecting Your Hardware

Shut down your PC before connecting the router. To connect your modem:

1.

Connect the ADSL Line

Connect one end of an RJ-11 cable from your ADSL connection and the other end to the

LINE port of the modem.

2.

Connect the PC to the Router

To use the Ethernet connection, connect the Ethernet cable from the computer directly to the

router. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to one of the four ports labelled LAN on the

back of the router and attach the other end to the Ethernet port of your computer.

3.

Connect the Power Adapter

Complete the process by connecting the AC power adapter to the POWER connector on the

back of the device and plug the adapter into a wall outlet or power strip. Then turn on and

boot up your PC and any LAN devices, such as hubs or switches, and any computers

connected to them.
