restricted. 3Com recommends you provide a minimum of 25 mm (1 in.)
clearance.
Use the four self-adhesive rubber feet to prevent your Gateway from moving
around on your desk or when stacking with other flat top OfficeConnect units.
Only stick the feet to the marked areas at each corner of the underside of your
Gateway.
Before you install and configure your Gateway, you need the following additional
information. If you do not have this information, contact your Internet Service
Provider. Space is provided below for you to record this information.
If you have a DSL connection and your ISP allocates IP information dynamically
over PPPoE, you need a User Name and Password:
PPPoE User Name
PPPoE Password
PPPoE Service Name
You only need a PPPoE Service Name if your ISP requires one. Do not enter
anything if your ISP does not require a service name
If your ISP allocates fixed or static IP information, you need the following
information:
IP Address
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway address : ____.____.____.____
DNS address
If your ISP allocates IP information dynamically over a protocol other than PPPoE,
you do not need any further information. This configuration is typical of cable
connections.
To power up the Gateway:
1 Plug the power adapter into the power adapter socket located on the back panel
of the Gateway (refer to "Power Adapter socket" on page 13).
2 Plug the power adapter into a standard electrical wall socket.
The first step for installing your Wireless Cable/DSL Gateway is to physically
connect it to a cable or DSL modem in order to be able to access the Internet.
To use your Wireless Cable/DSL Gateway to connect to the Internet through an
external cable or DSL modem (Figure 5):
