This equipment is intended to connect to the Public Switched Telephone  
Network through a Universal Service Order Code (USOC) type RJ11C jack.  
A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and  
telephone network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and  
requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant telephone cord and modular  
plug is provided with this product. It has been designed to be connected to a  
compatible modular jack that is also compliant.  
The Ringer Equivalence Number (or REN) is used to determine the number of  
devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a  
telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an  
incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed  
five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a  
line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local Telephone Company.  
The REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format  
US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a  
decimal point. For example, 03 represents a REN of 0.3.  
If the modem causes harm to the telephone network, the Telephone Company  
will notify you in advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be  
required. But if advance notice is not practical, the Telephone Company will  
notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your  
right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.  
The Telephone Company may make changes in its facilities, equipment,  
operations or procedures that could affect the operation of the equipment. If  
this happens, the Telephone Company will provide advance notice in order for  
you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service. If  
trouble is experienced with the modem, refer to the repair and warranty  
information in this document.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION AND PC SETUP  
Overview  
This chapter provides basic instructions for connecting the router to a  
computer or a LAN and to the Internet using DSL. The first part provides  
instructions to set up the hardware, and the second part describes how to  
prepare your PC for use with the router.  
It is assumed that you have already subscribed to DSL service with your  
Internet service provider (ISP).  
Connecting the Hardware  
Shut down your PC and any other equipment before connecting it to the  
router. To connect your router:  
1 Verify that the router’s power switch is in the Off (outward) position.  
Verify that any PCs and other LAN devices you will attach (such as hubs  
or switches) are turned off.  
2 Use the provided modular phone cable to connect the LINE jack of the  
router to your RJ11 wall jack.  
3 Use the provided Ethernet cable to connect your computer to the router.  
Attach one end of the Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports on the back  
of the router and connect the other end to the Ethernet port or Network  
Interface Card (NIC) in your PC.  
Connect any other PCs, hubs, and switches to the remaining LAN ports.  
Either a crossover or a straight-through Ethernet cable can be used: the  
router determines the type of signal required.  
4 Connect the cylindrical power plug into the POWER connector on the  
back of the device. Next:  
— If you have a wall-mount adapter, plug the AC adapter into a wall  
outlet or a power strip.  
— If you have a table-top adapter, use the AC power cord to connect the  
adapter to a wall outlet or power strip.  
The supplied power adapter may look different than the one illustrated  
here.

LAN 1–4  
Solid green to indicate that the device can communicate  
with your PC via Ethernet, or flashing when the router is  
sending or receiving data over Ethernet.  
If the LEDs are illuminated as expected, the router is working properly.  
Configuring Your Computer  
Before you can access the router over the LAN you have to configure your  
PC's TCP/IP address to be 192.168.1.x (where x is any number between 3 and  
254), with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Your router's default IP address is  
192.168.1.1.  
If you know the version of Windows that you use, go to the appropriate  
section below to learn how to set the IP address of your PC. To determine the  
version of Windows running on your PC, click on the Windows Start button,  
then click on Run... in the Start menu. Type winver in the Open selection box  
and click on OK.

VPI (Virtual Path Identifier) – The valid range is 0 to 255.  
VCI (Virtual Channel Identifier) – The valid range is 32 to 65535.  
Service Category – Five classes of traffic defined are defined:  
— UBR Without PCR (Unspecified Bit Rate without Peak Cell Rate)  
— UBR With PCR (Unspecified Bit Rate with Peak Cell Rate) – UBR  
service is suitable for applications that can tolerate variable delays  
and some cell loss, such as data transfer, messaging, distribution, and  
retrieval, and remote terminal applications such as telecommuting.  
— CBR (Constant Bit Rate) – Used by applications that require a fixed  
data rate that is continuously available during the connection time. It  
is commonly used for uncompressed audio and video information  
such as videoconferencing, interactive audio (telephony), and audio  
and video distribution and retrieval.  
— Non-Realtime VBR (Non-Real-time Variable Bit Rate) – Can be used  
for data transfers that have critical response-time requirements such  
as airline reservations, banking transactions, and process monitoring.  
— Realtime VBR (Real-time Variable Bit Rate) – Used for  
time-sensitive applications such as real-time video. Rt-VBR service  
allows the network more flexibility than CBR.
