First Time Set Up

to verify that the ADSL service is functioning and that you are able to communicate with the device. Once the
initial ADSL connection is established, you can proceed to build an Ethernet LAN around the device or
incorporate it into an existing LAN.
For most users, it will probably be most convenient to access the web configuration software using the Ethernet
connection. Any computer equipped with an Ethernet port may use the Router's Ethernet interface. However, if
you prefer to configure the Router through the USB port it is necessary to first install two drivers on your system.
These drivers are designed specifically for the DSL-502G and enable your computer to send and receive data
through the Router's USB interface and communicate with computers on the Ethernet LAN. Only one computer
at a time can use the USB port. Follow the procedure below to install the USB driver. Once the driver has been
installed you can use your web browser to access the configuration software.
