Backing Up and Restoring Your 
Configurations 
When would I need to back up and restore my 
configuration settings? 
It is a good idea to back up your configuration settings after you set 
up the X6, and also before you upload new firmware. Then if the 
update overwrites your configurations, you can put them back 
using the 
Restore
option. You may also want to back up your 
configurations so you can use them to set up the same 
configurations in other modems. 
Here is a picture of the 
Backup/Restore Configuration

Follow the instructions on the page to back up or restore your 
configuration settings.

Updating Your Firmware 
How do I update my firmware? 
Periodically you may want to update the firmware on your X6 
modem. To do this, you download the Image file from the Zoom 
Web Site to your computer. You then use the 
Firmware Update
option to upload the file to your modem. 
Important!
It is recommended that you backup your modem’s 
configurations before you upload the firmware. (See 
Backing Up 
and Restoring Your Configurations
on page 91). Also, 
do not
turn off the modem or unplug it while the upload is in progress.

Appendix A 
ADSL Internet Settings 
Tables 
Below are two tables, one for the USA and one for other countries. 
These tables are for customers whose service providers do not 
supply them with ADSL settings. Many ADSL providers use 
different settings depending on the region where they are 
operating. This is why there may be more than one setting for your 
service provider. If you refer to the tables and there is more than 
one listing for your service provider, the most common is labeled 
(1), the next (2), and so on. We recommend that you try them in 
order starting with 1. 
We post updated tables on our Web site. If your service provider 
or country is not listed in the tables below, please consult 
www.zoom.com 
Note to USA customers
If your ADSL service provider is not shown below, use the settings 
for 
Service Provider Not Shown
at the bottom of the table. If 
those settings do not work, use the settings for the company that 
provides local telephone service in your area.
