Chapter 1: Installation Instructions

6 Turn the computer on.

7 Plug one end of the supplied phone cord into the modem’s

DSL port and the other into the DSL wall jack. The blinking

INTERNET light should become steady on. If it does not,

refer to Troubleshooting on page 125.

Note:

In some countries, including the UK, the modem comes with a

splitter. Plug the splitter into the wall jack with DSL service.

Then plug the supplied phone cord between the modem's DSL

jack and the splitter's MODEM jack.

We recommend that you put an DSL filter on every phone

connected to the DSL phone line. DO NOT put a filter

between the X6v and the wall jack that it is connected to. If

you are using a splitter, you can plug a phone into the splitter's

PHONE jack, which has a built-in filter.

8 If you want to use the modem's VoIP capability, plug a phone

or cordless phone base station into the X6v's PHONE

connector.

If you want to be able to switch between Internet and standard

landline phone service, plug one end of the supplied phone

cord into the X6v's TELCO (i.e., Telephone Company)

connector and the other end into the wall jack where you

would normally plug in a standard telephone.

Congratulations! You have installed the hardware. Now
