Step 1. Connect the ADSL cable
Connect one end of the provided phone cable to the port labeled ADSL{ XE "ADSL cable"
}{ XE "ADSL port" } on the rear panel of the device. Connect the other end to your wall
phone jack.
Step 2. Connect the Ethernet cable.
If you are connecting a LAN to the ATU-R130 ADSL/Ethernet router, attach one end of a
provided Ethernet cable to a regular hub port and the other to the Ethernet port on the
ATU-R130.
If you are using the ATU-R130 with a single computer and no hub, you must use a
" crossover" Ethernet cable{ XE "Ethernet cable" } (not provided) to attach the PC directly to
the device. The crossover cable is wired differently than the cable you would use to
connect to a hub. When you compare the colored wires on each end of a straight-through
cable, they will be in the same sequence; on crossover cables, they will not. Contact your
ISP for assistance.
Step 3. Attach the power connector.{ XE "Power connector" }
Connect the AC power adapter to the PWR connector labeled DC IN on the back of the
device and plug in the adapter to a wall outlet or power strip.
Step 4. Power up your systems.
Turn on and boot up your computer(s) and any LAN devices such as hubs or switches.
Step 5: Install USB software and connect the USB cable. { XE "USB:installing" }
You can attach a single computer to the device using a USB cable. The USB port is useful
if you have an USB-enabled PC that does not have a network interface card for attaching
to your Ethernet network.
Before attaching the USB cable, you must install a USB driver and configure the computer.

Configuring Your Computers

This part provides instructions for configuring the Internet settings on your computers to
work with the ATU-R130.
Before you begin{ XE "PC configuration" }{ XE "Computers:configuring IP
information" }{ XE "IP information:configuring on LAN computers" }
By default, the ATU-R130 automatically assigns all required Internet settings to your PCs.
You need only to configure the PCs to accept the information when it is assigned.

instructions on page 10.

In some cases, you may want to assign Internet information
manually to some or all of your computers rather than allow the
ATU-R130 to do so. See " Assigning static Internet information
to your PCs" on page 10 for instructions.
