3. Connect your BT Home Hub
Plug the broadband cable (grey ends) into the 'Broadband' socket on your Hub
and the 'DSL' socket on one of the ADSL filters.
Plug the power cable into your Hub's 9V DC socket and a nearby power supply.
Turn on power at the power socket.
Use the cable tidy
*
to keep the power and broadband
cables neat. Simply twist either end of the tidy to
open a gap and then slide the cables into it.
If you do need to extend the distance between your
computer and your Hub, we suggest you use a longer
Ethernet cable or a wireless connection (see option C
on page 13).
Please do not connect your computer yet.
*Warning: choking hazard. Keep out of reach of children.
Need to use an extension lead?
Make sure it isn't longer than 10 metres. Keep the distance between the phone
socket, ADSL filter and Hub to a minimum.
Extension lead for the Hub
10 metres maximum
Important: you must not have an ADSL filter at each end of an extension lead.
4. Wait for your Hub's Broadband light to glow green
Your Hub will synchronise with your broadband service. This will take a few minutes.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the Broadband light isn't glowing green after a few minutes, please wait a little longer (in some
cases up to an hour). Please bear in mind that your broadband service may not be activated until 8pm
on activation day. For more help and information, please see connection troubleshooting on page 31.
