Chapter 2 - Installation
The Router maintains three separate physical interfaces, an ADSL, an Ethernet, and a wireless Interface. Place the Router in a location where it can be easily
connected to Ethernet devices, the telephone line, and a power source. The Router should not be located where it will be exposed to moisture or excessive heat.
Make sure the cables and power cord are placed safely out of the way so they do not create a tripping hazard. As with any electrical appliance, observe common
sense safety procedures.
The Router can be placed on a shelf or desktop, ideally you should be able to see the LED indicators on the front if you need to view them for troubleshooting.
The Router must be used with the power adapter included with the device.
1. Connect the Power Adapter to the power receptacle located on the rear panel of the Router and plug the other end of the power adapter to a wall outlet
or power strip.
2. Depress the Power button into the on position. You should see the Power LED indicator on the front panel shine bright green to indicate the device is
powered on.
3. If the Ethernet port is connected to a working device, check the LAN LED indicator to make sure the connection is valid. The Router will attempt to
establish the ADSL connection. If the ADSL line is connected and the Router is properly configured, this should light up after several seconds. If this is
the first time you have installed the device, some settings may need to be changed before the Router can establish a connection.
The Router may be reset to the original factory default settings by using a ballpoint or paperclip to gently push down the reset button in the following sequence:
1. With the Router powered on (check the Power LED to make sure it lights steady green), press and hold down the reset button using a paper clip or
similar object for about 6 to 8 seconds.
2. The Router will restart. Watch the Power LED to verify that it is restarting.
3. When it is powered on again it is ready to be configured. The whole process takes about 30 seconds.
4. The device settings will be restored to the factory default IP address 192.168.1.1 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the default management Username
is "admin" and the default Password is "admin."
Note: A factory reset will erase the current configuration settings and reset them to the default settings. After it has restarted, log in to the router's
Web-based management interface and use the Setup Wizard to configure the basic settings.
