Quick Start Instructions

Installing the X6 involves four steps: Installing the Software,
Installing the Hardware, Establishing Communication, and
Setting Up Your Wired and/or Wireless Network.

Step 1: Installing the Software

Regardless of how many computers you plan to use with the X6,
you only have to install the software on one of them.
You will install the software on a Windows computer that you
directly connect to the X6, and then use that computer to
configure the modem. This computer must have an Ethernet port.
If it does not, you can purchase a Network Interface Card to add
one.
Important!
If possible, use a computer that is centrally located in your home or
office and that has easy access to an ADSL line. If you do not have
a desktop computer located centrally in your home (for example, it
is in the basement), or you only have notebook computers, you
should still directly connect this desktop computer or one of your
notebooks to the X6 to configure it. Once the X6 is set up and
your Internet connection is working, you can unplug the computer
from the unit and move the X6 to a more central location.
