9. CONFIGURING YOUR BROADBAND CONNECTION
To browse the Internet using your Router, you must confirm your DSL connection, set up your account profile, and
establish a DHCP or PPP session with your Internet service provider (ISP). The procedures for configuring your
Router’s connection settings are explained in this section.
9.1 Confirming Your DSL Connection
After you have logged on to the Router and changed your administrator password, as explained in section 8, the
following home page will appear. Use this page to determine the status of your DSL and Internet connections.
IMPORTANT: You must have active DSL service before the Router can synchronize with Verizon’s equipment.
To determine if the Router has established a DSL link, do any of the following:
In the My Modem panel of the Main page, view the DSL link field. If the status reads Not Connected,
you do not have a DSL link. However, if DSL Link field displays Connected and the Speed (Down/Up)
field displays numeric values, a DSL link has been established. The values displayed represent the
transmission rates of your DSL signal, downstream and upstream. (You may need to wait a brief moment
for the Router to report these values.)
At the front of the Router, check to see if the Router’s DSL LED is solid green. Solid green indicates that
the Router’s DSL connection has been established. (The DSL LED may flash while the connection is being
established.) Please wait a brief moment for the Router to connect.
