Connect the System
The ADSL Wireless Modem Router can be positioned at any convenient location in
your office or home. No special wiring or cooling requirements are needed. You
should, however, comply with the following guidelines:
• Keep the ADSL Wireless Modem Router away from any heating devices.
• Do not place the ADSL Wireless Modem Router in a dusty or wet environment.
You should also remember to turn off the power, remove the power cord from the
outlet, and keep your hands dry when you install the ADSL Wireless Modem Router.
Connect the ADSL Line
Connect the supplied RJ-11 cable from the ADSL Microfilter/Splitter to the ADSL
port on your ADSL Wireless Modem Router. When inserting an ADSL RJ-11 plug, be
sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.
Phone Line Configuration
Installing a Full-Rate Connection
If you are using a full-rate (G.dmt) connection, your service provider will attach the
outside ADSL line to a data/voice splitter. In this case you can connect your phones
and computer directly to the splitter as shown below:
Figure 2-3. Installing with a Splitter
Installing a Splitterless Connection
If you are using a splitterless (G.lite) connection, then your service provider will
attach the outside ADSL line directly to your phone system.
In this case you can connect your phones and computer directly to the incoming
ADSL line, but you will have to add low-pass filters to your phones as shown below:

Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling
The four LAN ports on the ADSL Wireless Modem Router auto-negotiate the
connection speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, as well as the
transmission mode to half duplex or full duplex.
Use RJ-45 cables to connect any of the four LAN ports on the ADSL Wireless
Modem Router to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, cascade any of the
LAN ports on the ADSL Wireless Modem Router to an Ethernet hub or switch, and
then connect your PC or other network equipment to the hub or switch. When
inserting an RJ-45 connector, be sure the tab on the connector clicks into position to
ensure that it is properly seated.
Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This may damage the
ADSL Wireless Modem Router.
Notes:
– Use 100-ohm shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 connectors for all
10/100 ethernet ports. Use Category 3, 4, or 5 for connections that operate at 10 Mbps,
and Category 5 for connections that operate at 100 Mbps.
– Make sure each twisted-pair cable length does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
Connect the Power Adapter
Plug the power adapter into the power socket on the rear of the ADSL Wireless
Modem Router, and the other end into a power outlet.
Check the power indicator on the front panel is lit. If the power indicator is not lit,
refer to ‘Troubleshooting’ on page 42.
In case of a power input failure, the ADSL Wireless Modem Router will automatically
restart and begin to operate once the input power is restored.
