ADSL Modem What’s in this Guide? This user guide covers the steps for setting up and using the ADSL Modem. • Chapter 1: Introduction This chapter describes the ADSL Modem applications and this User Guide. • Chapter 2: Getting to Know the ADSL Modem This chapter describes the physical features of the ADSL Modem. • Chapter 3: Connecting the ADSL Modem This chapter instructs you on how to connect the ADSL Modem to your network.
ADSL Modem Chapter 2: Getting to Know the ADSL Modem The Back Panel The Modem’s ports, where cables are connected, are located on the back panel. The Modem’s reset button is also located on the back panel. Figure 2-1: Back Panel DSL The DSL port connects to the DSL line. Ethernet The Ethernet port connects to your computer and other network devices. Reset Button There are two ways to reset the Modem's factory default settings.
ADSL Modem The Front Panel The Modem's LEDs, where information about network activity is displayed, are located on the front panel. Figure 2-2: Front Panel Power Green. The Power LED lights up when the Modem is powered on. Ethernet Green. The Ethernet LED serves two purposes. If the LED is continuously lit, the Modem is successfully connected to a device through the Ethernet port. If the LED is blinking, it is an indication of any network activity. DSL Green.
ADSL Modem Chapter 3: Setting Up and Connecting the ADSL Modem Overview In this chapter, you will connect the Modem to your DSL line and to a computer in your home or business. It is not necessary to mount your Modem, but may be useful to conserve space. There are 2 slots on the underside of the Modem that can be used for wall mounting.
