Nighthawk AC1900 WiFi VDSL/ADSL Modem Router Model D7000v2

DSL Service

Make sure that your ADSL or VDSL service is active before you install the modem router. You need the
following information to install your DSL modem and connect to the Internet:
• DSL user name and password. This information is included in the welcome letter that your DSL Internet
service provider (ISP) sent you when you signed up for your service. Record your DSL Internet service
account user name and password.
• Your telephone number or DSL account number. If you do not use voice service, you can use your
DSL account number in place of a phone number.
If you do not know or cannot locate your DSL user name and password, call your DSL ISP. Be specific when
speaking with your DSL ISP. For example, you could say, "I need my DSL service user name and password.
Can you help me?"
Note If your provider says that they do not support NETGEAR services, tell them that you
need only your DSL user name and password. You do not need support.
