To set up your internet connection, you'll initially need to use a computer
(Windows or Mac) with an Ethernet port and web browser, and connected by
the yellow Ethernet cable to a LAN port in the Gateway. Your gateway needs
to be within reach of the phone socket for ADSL or VDSL broadband services,
or the optical network termination point for fibre broadband services.
Once you've established your internet connection, you'll then be able to set
up a wireless WiFi (wireless) network and connect wirelessly to that network.
Important: If you are running an alternative DHCP server on your network, contact
your IT support specialist before progressing. (DHCP is enabled by default on the
Gateway and this will conflict with your existing DHCP server).
2.1 BROADBAND SERVICE AUTO CONFIGURATION
The HG659 Gateway automatically configures itself to the active connection type it
discovers – ADSL, VDSL2, Fibre or via USB Mobile Broadband T-Stick.*
Should you change connection type at any time, simply reboot your gateway
and it will connect to the new service without altering your gateway settings.
* The HG659 supports a range of Spark USB mobile broadband T-Sticks. By using
a mobile broadband connection through this gateway, you will incur charges on your
mobile broadband plan not covered by your business or fixed line broadband plan.
A list of Spark T-Sticks supported by the HG659 can be found at
