Config Wizard - Planet VRT-401 User Manual

Config Wizard

The first time you connect to VRT-401, the Config Wizard will run automatically. (The
Setup Wizard will also run if VRT-401' s default settings are restored.)
1. Step through the Wizard until finished.
You need to know the type of Internet connection service used by your ISP.
Check the data supplied by your ISP.
The common connection types are explained in the tables below.
2. On the final screen of the Wizard, run the test and check that an Internet connec-
tion can be established.
3. If the connection test fails:
Check your data, the Cable/DSL modem, and all connections.
Check that you have entered all data correctly.
If using a Cable modem, your ISP may have recorded the MAC (physical) ad-
dress of your PC. Run the Wizard, and on the Cable Modem screen, use the
"Clone MAC address" button to copy the MAC address from your PC to VRT-
401.
