Reference Manual for the Model DM602 ADSL Modem
3-10 Preparing Your Computer
If an ISP technician configured your computer during the installation of the service for a static IP
address, or if you configured it for a static IP address using instructions provided by your ISP, you
need to be sure you have that configuration information recorded. You will need to your
computer’s TCP/IP settings to use DHCP, then connect to the modem to configure it to operate in
Modem Device Mode. Once the modem is set to operate in Modem Device Mode, you will need to
reconfigure your computer with the static TCP/IP configuration you recorded from your ISP.
Restarting the Computer
Once you’ve set up your computer to work with the modem, you must reset the devices to be able
to communicate correctly.
1. Pull the modem’s power adapter out of the socket on the back, then put it back in to reset
it, and wait about 10 seconds.
2. Restart the computer that is connected to the modem.
Ready for Configuration
After configuring your computer for TCP/IP networking and connecting it to the Model DM602
modem, you are ready to access and configure the modem. Proceed to the next chapter.
