Configuring the Internet Connection
Now that your first computer is connected to the gateway, you need to configure your gateway to
communicate with your Internet service provider.
To activate your Internet account:
1. Open your Internet browser.
2. Type http://gateway.2wire.net/setup into the browser’s address line.
3. When prompted to enter a key code, enter the key code provided by your Internet service in the key
code field, and click
NEXT.
4. Select your Local Time Zone and click NEXT.
5. You may be prompted to enter service provider information such as username and password. Enter any
required service provider information and click
NEXT.
6. The connection process will begin. During this process the INTERNET light on the front of the gateway
will first blink green then turn solid green. This step could take up to five minutes as the gateway
searches for your broadband service.
7. The gateway will now connect to the Internet. This process may take several minutes. If the registration
screen opens, click the
REGISTER button and complete the 2Wire registration process.
