swimming pool.
• Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless phone) during an electrical storm.
• Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak while you are in the vicinity of the leak.
• WARNING: If your modem has a removable antenna, attach only the antenna that was
provided or an equivalent indoor antenna meeting local RF transmission regulations.
DO NOT attach any antenna or antenna cable that has outdoor exposure.

Adding ADSL filters
If you haven’t already done so, we recommend that you put an ADSL
filter on every phone connected to the ADSL phone line. If you received
a filter or filter/splitter from Zoom, you can use that. You can also
purchase an ADSL filter from a retailer of telephone accessories. ADSL
filters and filter/splitters come in a variety of styles and sizes and might
not look identical to the filter/splitters shown here.
Connecting Additional Computers
This
Quick Start
described how to connect the X6v to a single Windows
computer. If you like, you can now connect additional computers to the
X6v using a wired or wireless network connection:
•
A wired network connection uses an Ethernet cable to connect the
Ethernet port of your computer (or game station) to one of the four
Ethernet (LAN) ports on the X6v.
•
A wireless network connection uses the built-in or external wireless
capability on your computer (or game station) and the X6v. Both built-
in and external wireless setups will work with the X6v.
If you want to connect a game station, see the
Zoom ADSL X6v User
Guide
on the X6v CD.
