B Configuring IP Settings on Your Computer In order to configure your system to receive IP settings from the Router it must first have the TCP/IP protocol installed. If you have an Ethernet port on your computer, it probably already has TCP/IP protocol installed. If you are using Windows XP the TCP/IP is enabled by default for standard installations. Below is an illustrated example of how to configure a Windows XP system to automatically obtain IP settings from the Router.
Click Network and Internet Connections. 3. In the Network and Internet Connections window, click Network Connections. Click Network Connections. 4. In the Network Connections window, right-click on Local Area Connection, then click Properties. Right-click on the Local Area Connection icon and select the Properties option from the pull-down menu.
5. In the General tab of the Local Area Connection Properties window, highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) under “This connection uses the following items:” by clicking on it once. Click on the Properties button. Click Properties. 6. Select “Obtain an IP address automatically” by clicking once in the circle. Click the OK button Select Obtain an IP address automatically in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window. Your computer is now ready to use the Router’s DHCP server.
Windows 2000 First, check for the IP protocol and, if necessary, install it: 1. In the Windows task bar, click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. 2. Double-click the Network and Dial-up Connections icon. 3. In the Network and Dial-up Connections window, right-click the Local Area Connection icon, and then select Properties. 4. The Local Area Connection Properties dialog box displays with a list of currently installed network components.
Windows 95 and Windows 98 First, check for the IP protocol and, if necessary, install it: 1. In the Windows task bar, click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. Double-click the Network icon. 2. The Network dialog box displays with a list of currently installed network components. If the list includes TCP/IP, and then the protocol has already been enabled, skip to Configure IP Information Windows 95, 98. 3. If TCP/IP does not display as an installed component, click Add.
Your computer is now ready to use the Router’s DHCP server. Windows NT 4.0 Workstations First, check for the IP protocol and, if necessary, install it: 1. In the Windows NT task bar, click the Start button, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. 2. In the Control Panel window, double-click the Network icon. 3.

C Low Pass Filters for DSL Most ADSL clients will be required to install a simple device that prevents the ADSL line from interfering with regular telephone services. These devices are commonly referred to as microfilters or low pass filters. The two basic styles of low pass filters commonly used are described below. In-Line Filter In line low pass filters are used for each telephone or telephone device (answering machines, Faxes etc.) that shares the line with the ADSL service.
Three Port Filter Another style of filter is installed at the same point where the Router connects to the telephone line. Only a single filter is required. The connection ports are typically labeled as follows: Line - This port connects to the wall jack. ADSL – This port connects to the Router. Phone – This port connects to a telephone or other telephone device. The diagram below illustrates the proper use of this style of filter. Make certain the lines are properly connected.
