3. Connect the power supply
Turn on your cable or DSL modem. Connect
the included power cord to the power jack on
the Wireless Cable/DSL Router. Plug the
power cord into a standard power outlet.
Turn on your PC.
Congratulations! The installation procedure is
now complete.
You should now have secure and shared Internet
access. To verify your connection, launch a Web
browser and go to www.usr.com. If the page
loads, you are finished with the installation
procedure.
If you have any difficulties connecting to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router,
check the top three issues below and see if they apply to your situation.
• If you are attempting to create a wireless connection, but cannot con-
nect to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router, make sure each Wireless Card
is set to Infrastructure mode. If the Wireless Cards are set to 802.11b
AdHoc mode, you will not be able to connect to the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router. When each Wireless Card is set to Infrastructure
mode, it should automatically connect to the Access Point of the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router. If the Wireless Cards do not automatically
connect, rescan until they detect the Wireless Cable/DSL Router
and connect.
• If you create a wireless connection to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router,
but are experiencing poor link quality, check the positioning of the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router. Long distances, multiple floors, or steel
or concrete walls can diminish the link quality. If possible, reposition
the Wireless Cable/DSL Router to reduce the
effect of any of these obstacles.
• If you have the Wireless Cable/DSL Router
properly connected and can access the
Internet, but are experiencing difficulties
connecting with special applications (e.g.,
ICQ, Battle.net, etc.), you must assign
specific ports in order to bypass the fire-
wall function. For more information about how
to configure this function, refer to the
"Special Applications" section within the
"Configuring the Wireless Cable/DSL
Router" chapter of the User Guide.
Note: If you want to attach a printer to your
network, refer to the Print Server section of the
User Guide for installation instructions.
For troubleshooting and support information,
refer to the Companion Reference Guide or to
the User Guide on the U.S. Robotics
Installation CD-ROM.
Connecting an Analog or ISDN modem to the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router
There are two main reasons why you would want to use either an
analog or ISDN modem with the Wireless Cable/DSL Router:
• You use dial-up Internet service instead of cable or DSL
Internet service.
• You have cable or DSL Internet service but want to have an analog
or ISDN backup in case your broadband Internet service is unavailable.
Perform the following steps to connect an analog or ISDN modem,
manually change the WAN type, and properly configure the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router:
1. Connect your modem to the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router
Turn off your PC and your analog or ISDN modem.
Connect a serial modem cable to your analog or ISDN modem and to the
COM port on the Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
Note: If your analog or ISDN modem is connected to your PC using a USB
cable, disconnect the USB cable from both your PC and from your analog or
ISDN modem.
2 Connect your Wireless Cable/DSL
Router to your computer
To make an Ethernet connection: Connect one end
of the supplied Ethernet cable to your PC's Ethernet
adapter. Connect the other end to one of the LAN
ports on the Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
To make a wireless connection: Make sure each
Wireless Card that will be connecting to the network
is set to Infrastructure mode.
Note: Each Wireless Access PC Card or PCI Adapter in the
wireless network must have the Infrastructure mode
selected within the Configuration Utility. Refer to your
Wireless Access PC Card or PCI Adapter documentation
for information on selecting Infrastructure mode.
