Connecting your NB5Plus4/W
The NB5Plus4/W can be connected via a USB cable or an Ethernet cable or both. The USB
connection is simply an ethernet simulation. As far as your computer is concerned the USB
connection is an Ethernet connection, hence DHCP and other protocols will work the same as for
Ethernet.
To connect to your ADSL Router, you need to have either an Ethernet Port or a USB Port pres-
ent on your Computer/Notebook.
Connecting your NB5Plus4/W ADSL Modem via ETHERNET
1. Connect your NB5Plus4/W to either a computer directly or a network hub or switch using
CAT5 ethernet cables.
2. Connect the power pack to the ADSL Modem and switch on the power switch.
3. Ensure that there is a LAN link light on the NB5Plus4/W.
4. Ensure that the computer you intend to use has an IP address in the same subnet as the
NB5Plus4/W ADSL Modem. (e.g. the NB5Plus4/W’s default IP is 192.168.1.1 - your
computer should be on 192.168.1.100 or similar.) If you have DHCP enabled on your
computer, the NB5Plus4/W will assign your computer a suitable IP address.
5. Ensure that your computer has a LAN link light.
6. Connect one end of the ADSL phone line to the NB5Plus4/W ADSL Modem and the
other end to the wall socket.
