Write Settings to Flash
. Once
the process is complete, the X5’s
ADSL
light should remain
on steady (this should take about 15 seconds).
7
Verify that your Internet connection is working. Open your
Web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator)
and try to connect to a familiar Web address.
If you connect successfully, you are ready to browse the
Web from this computer!
Congratulations!
You have established communication and
your computer is now connected to the Internet. If you want
to connect more computers or a network device to the X5,
continue with
Connecting Additional Computers to the
Internet
on page 24. Otherwise, you are done with this user’s
guide. Enjoy your X5!
If You Did Not Connect
If you did not connect and you are using settings provided by your
service provider, repeat steps 3–7 above and make sure that you
enter the information correctly (especially your
Username
and
Password
, if your
Encapsulation
begins with PPP). If you still
cannot connect, look up your provider in the
ADSL Internet
Settings Tables
on page 45 and try the setting(s) shown, if
different.
If you did not connect and were using settings from the
ADSL
Internet Settings Tables
, return to the tables and find the next
most frequently used settings—those labeled (2) if you just entered
(1), or (3) if you just entered (2), and repeat steps 3–7 above.

ADSL X5 User's Guide
Using Static IP Addressing
If your Internet service provider’s
Encapsulation
setting is either
1483 Bridged
or
1483 Routed
, the X5 can be set for either a
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) address (also
known as a dynamic IP address) or for a static IP address.
Because most Internet service providers use DHCP, the X5 is
set for dynamic IP addressing by default.
There is typically an extra charge for a static IP address, and you
usually have to make a special request to get one.
Important!
If you do not know what static IP addressing is or why you would
use it, you most likely do not need to change the default setting.
Only advanced users who specifically want to use static IP
addressing and/or those users whose Internet service provider
specifically instructed them to use static IP addressing should
change this setting.

Verify that your Internet connection is working. Open your
Web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator)
and try to connect to a familiar Web address.
If you connect successfully, you are ready to browse the
Web from this computer!
Congratulations!
You have established communication and
your computer is now connected to the Internet. If you want
to connect more computers or a network device to the X5,
continue with the next section,
Connecting Additional
Computers to the Internet
. Otherwise, you are done with
this user’s guide. Enjoy your X5!
Important!
If you did not connect, see
Appendix D: Troubleshooting
on page 57.
Step 4: Connecting Additional
Computers to the Internet
The X5 supports the direct connection of up to four computers
with Ethernet ports. (Windows users can connect a fifth computer
using its USB port.)
To increase the number of Internet connections, you can plug a
network device (such as a wireless access point, router, hub, or
switch) into one of the modem’s LAN ports. This expands the
maximum number of Internet connections supported by the
modem to 253.
Note:
Depending on how many computers/network devices you plan to
connect, you may need to purchase additional Ethernet cables. The
X5 comes with one Ethernet cable and one USB cable.

Once your initial computer has been successfully connected to the
Web, you can now connect the other computers and/or a network
device.
•
To connect additional computers directly to the X5, see the
next section.
•
To connect a network device to the X5, see page 26.
To Connect Additional Computers
1
Shut down the computer you want to add to the X5. (This is
important because the computer must locate the correct IP
address for the modem. This is done when the computer is
turned back on in step 3 below.)
2
Plug one end of an Ethernet cable into one of the modem’s
LAN ports (
1
,
2
,
3
, or
4
) and plug the other end into your
computer’s Ethernet port.
Note for Windows users:
At this point, you should not be connecting any of your
additional computers using the X5 modem’s
USB
port. If you
planned to use the
USB
port, it would already be connected to
the computer on which you installed the software, as explained
earlier in this user’s guide.
3
Turn on the computer.
4
Verify that your Internet connection is working. Open your
Web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator)
and try to connect to a familiar Web address.
5
Repeat steps 1–4 for each computer you want to add.
Congratulations!
You have completed all you need to do to get
your additional computers on the Internet. You are done with this
user’s guide. Enjoy your X5!
