v1.1, 2006-2
Internet Configuration Requirements
Depending on how your ISP set up your Internet account, you need one or more of these
configuration parameters to connect your router to the Internet:
Virtual Path Identifier (VPI)/Virtual Channel Indentifier (VCI) parameters
Multiplexing Method
Host and Domain Names
ISP Login Name and Password
ISP Domain Name Server (DNS) Addresses
Fixed or Static IP Address
Your ISP should have provided you with all the information needed to connect to the Internet. If
you cannot locate this information, you can ask your ISP to provide it.
Two Setup Methods: 1) Smart Wizard Setup 2) Manual Setup
You have two methods available for setting up your ADSL modem router:
Smart Wizard Setup: Use the Smart Wizard on the CD to assist you with setting up your
ADSL modem router.
This option is the easiest. The Smart Wizard on the CD guides you through the setup
process, automating many of the steps, and verifying that necessary conditions exist and
that steps you perform have been successfully completed.
This option requires a PC running Microsoft Windows 98SE or higher.
Manual Setup: Manually set up your ADSL modem router.
This option is best if you are replacing an existing ADSL modem router or are technically
knowledgeable.
Use this option if you are using a computer that does not run Microsoft Windows.
The manual setup procedures are documented in this manual.
Use the setup option that best suites you.
Smart Wizard Setup
The Smart Wizard setup process should take about 20 minutes to complete.
