Your modem is connected to a Windows computer. If you want to use the
modem with a router, and the computers connected to that router, unplug
the modem's Ethernet cable from your computer and plug it into the WAN
port of your router. The router needs to be in DHCP mode, which is the way
it is normally set up when you first install it.
Congratulations! Your installation and setup are complete. You are ready to
browse the Web from a computer connected directly to the modem, or from a
computer connected to the modem through a router. Open your browser and go
to a familiar Web site.
If you are unable to access the Web, wait a few minutes and try again. Your
modem may need more time to connect with your Internet service. If you are
still unable to connect after a few minutes, refer to Troubleshooting Tips
on page 4.
We recommend that you install an ADSL filter on every phone and fax that
is sharing the ADSL phone line. Otherwise, these devices won't work
properly and will interfere with your ADSL connection when they're off-
hook.

Using the Advanced Options

Your modem provides several advanced options that you may find useful. Using
the options, you can monitor your ADSL connection, check your system status,
change the password of the Zoom Configuration Manager, and restore the
modem to its factory settings.
Checking the ADSL Status Page
You can use the ADSL Status page when you want to:
Verify whether your ADSL connection is active (if connected, the ADSL
Status setting will display Showtime.)
