Installation; Before You Begin - D-Link DSL-124 User Manual

Section 2 - Installation
This section will walk you through the installation process. Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed area
such as a closet, cabinet, attic, or garage.
Note: This installation section is written for users who are setting up their home Internet service with the DSL-124
Wireless N300 ADSL2+ Modem Router for the first time. If you are replacing an existing DSL modem and/or router, you may need to modify these
steps.
• Make sure to have your DSL service information provided by your Internet Service Provider handy. This information is likely to include
your DSL account's Username and Password. Your ISP may also supply you with additional WAN configuration settings which are necessary to
establish a connection. This information may include the connection type (DHCP IP, Static IP, PPPoE, or PPPoA) and/or ATM PVC details.
• If you are connecting a considerable amount of networking equipment, it may be a good idea to take the time to label each cable or take
a picture of your existing setup before making any changes.
• We suggest setting up your DSL-124 from a single device and verifying that it is connected to the Internet before connecting additional
devices.
• If you have DSL and are connecting via PPPoE, make sure you disable or uninstall any PPPoE connection software such as WinPoET,
BroadJump, or EnterNet 300 from your computer as the DSL-124 will be providing this functionality.
