  • Page 18: Hardware Installation

    Hardware Installation The DSL-2740B Wireless ADSL Router maintains three separate interfaces, an Ethernet LAN, a wireless LAN and an ADSL Internet (WAN) connection. Carefully consider the Router’s location suitable for connectivity for your Ethernet and wireless devices. You must have a functioning broadband connection via a bridge device such as a Cable or ADSL modem in order to use the Router’s WAN function.
  • Page 19: Network Connections

    Network Connections Wired network connections are provided through the ADSL port and the four Ethernet ports on the back of the Router. See the Rear Panel diagram above and the illustrations below for examples Connect ADSL Line Use the ADSL cable included with the Router to connect it to a telephone wall socket or receptacle.
