2.
Press the RESET button for 10 (or more) seconds, and then release it.
When the PWR LED begins red, the defaults have been restored and the
ADSL Router restarts.
5. Quick Start
This chapter provides information on the Wizard Setup screens in the web
configurator.
5.1 Wizard Setup Introduction
Use the Wizard Setup screens to configure your system for Internet access settings
and fill in the fields with the information in the Internet Account Information table of
the Compact Guide or Read Me First. Your ISP may have already configured some of
the fields in the wizard screens for you.
5.1.1 Encapsulation
Be sure to use the encapsulation method required by your ISP. The ADSL Router
supports the following methods:
•
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE RFC 2516): PPPoE provides access control
and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP.
The ADSL Router bridges a PPP session over Ethernet (PPP over Ethernet,
RFC 2516) from your computer to an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit)
which connects to ADSL Access Concentrator where the PPP session
terminates. One PVC can support any number of PPP sessions from your
LAN. For more information on PPPoE, see the appendix.
•
PPP over ATM (PPPoA RFC2364): PPPoA stands for Point to Point
Protocol over ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5). It provides access control
and billing functionality in a manner similar to dial-up services using PPP.
The ADSL Router encapsulates the PPP session based on RFC1483 and
sends it through an ATM PVC (Permanent Virtual Circuit) to the Internet
Service Provider's (ISP) DSLAM (digital access multiplexer). Please refer to
RFC 2364 for more information on PPPoA. Refer to RFC 1661 for more
information on PPP.
