Status Monitoring

This chapter discusses how to check the status of your modem

and its ADSL connection.

Most users can skip this chapter, as it is primarily for advanced

users and for those who are instructed by their Internet service

provider or Zoom Technical Support to verify settings, usually

for troubleshooting.

If you are using network device (such as a wireless access

point, router, hub, or switch), you can monitor your X5 from

any of the computers that are connected to your network.

The X5 provides two easy-to-read screens for you to review the

status of the modem and its ADSL connection.

While most users will probably never need to check the status,

there are some cases in which it would be helpful. For example,

you may need to know the IP address assigned to you by your

Internet service provider.

For advanced users with special configuration needs, the status

information is useful for overall system maintenance.
