FCC Part 68
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC Rules. On the bottom of this equipment is a label that contains
the FCC Registration Number and Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) for this equipment. You must provide this
information to the telephone company upon request.
The REN is useful to determine the quantity of devices you may connect to the telephone line and still have all of
those devices ring when your number is called.
In most, but not all areas, the sum of the REN of all devices connected to one line should not exceed five (5.0). To
be certain of the number of devices you may connect to your line, as determined by the REN, you should contact
your local telephone company to determine the maximum REN for your calling area.
If the modem causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may discontinue your service
temporarily. If possible, they will notify you in advance.
But if advance notice isn't practical, you will be notified as soon as possible. You will be advised of your right to file
a complaint with the FCC.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures that could
affect the proper operation of your equipment.
If they do, you will be notified in advance to give you an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted telephone service.
If you experience trouble with this modem, please contact your dealer for repair/warranty information. The
telephone company may ask you to disconnect this equipment from the network until the problem has been
corrected or you are sure that the equipment is not malfunctioning.
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company. Connection to party lines is
subject to state tariffs.
Installation
This device is equipped with a USOC RJ11C connector.
FCC Part 15
The modem generates and uses radio frequency energy. If it is not installed and used properly in strict
accordance with the user's manual, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. The modem has
been tested and found to comply with the limits for Class B computing devices in accordance with the
specifications in Subpart B, Part 15 of the FCC regulations. These specifications are designed to provide
4
reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. FCC regulations require that shielded interface cables be
used with your modem.
If interference does occur, we suggest the following measures be taken to rectify the problem:
1) Move the receiving antenna.
2) Move the modem away from the radio or TV.
3) Plug the modem into a different electrical outlet.
4) Discuss the problem with a qualified radio / TV technician.
CAUTION :
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance to the FCC Rules could
void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
Cable connections:
All equipment connected to this modem must use shielded cable as the interconnection means.
Notes:
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2) This device must accept any interference received including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Chapter 1 Introduction
The ADSL2+ Router provides home connectivity to an ADSL service provider network over an
ADSL/Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) physical layer.
The router can run upstream maximum transmission rates of 2Mbps and downstream maximum transmission
rates of 24Mbps.
The actual rate depends on the copper category of your telephone wire, distance from the central office and the
type of ADSL2+ service subscribed.
Four ports switch is provided for connection to an Ethernet LAN or Ethernet-equipped PC, and this router is easy
to install and to configure.

2.4 Hardware installation
This section describes how to connect and configure the ADSL2+ Router.
Step 1. Connect the ADSL Line
Connect the router directly to the wall jack using the included ADSL cable.
Step 2. Connect a Workstation to the Router's LAN port
There are two methods to connect the router and workstation. The one use the crossover Ethernet cable to
connect directly between them. The other use straight Ethernet cable to connect router with hub (or switch), and
then go to the workstation.
Step 3. Connect the Power Adapter to the Router
Connect the power adapter to the port labeled POWER on the rear panel of router.
Step 4. Connect All Cables to the Network
The procedure for connecting cables differs depending on whether or not your telephone equipment is connected
to a POTS splitter.
POTS Splitter Configuration (ADSL over POTS)
A POTS splitter separates data signals from voice signals on your telephone line. The POTS splitter works by
running a separate data line from the voice line, so that the ADSL router has a dedicated cable for data
transmission. Figure 2-4.1 and 2-4.2 shows how to connect all cables to the Router.
Figure 2-4.1 Router Connected through a POTS Splitter
Note: The POTS splitter may also be installed on the outside of the house adjacent to the telephone network
interface device (NID).

Figure 2-4.2 Router Connected through several micro-filters
ISDN Splitter Configuration (ADSL over ISDN)
A ISDN splitter separates ADSL signals from ISDN signals on your ISDN telephone line. The ISDN splitter works
by running a separate ADSL line from the ISDN line, so that the ADSL router has a dedicated cable for data
transmission.
Figure 2-4.3 shows how to connect all cables to the Router.

Note: The ISDN splitter may also be installed on the outside of the house adjacent to the telephone network
interface device (NID).

Chapter 3 Configuration
3.1 Determine your connection settings
Before you configure the router; you need to know the connection information supplied by your ADSL service
provider.
3.2 Connecting the ADSL Router to your network
Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the ADSL Router consists of more than simply plugging everything
together. Because the Router acts as a DHCP server, you will have to set some values within the Router, and also
configure your networked PCs to accept the IP Addresses the Router chooses to assign them.
Generally there are several different operating modes for your applications. And you can know which mode is
necessary for your system from ISP. These modes are router, bridge, PPPoE+NAT and NAT and PPPoA+NAT.
3.3 Configuring with Web Browser
It is advisable to change the administrator password to safeguard the security of your network.
To configure the router, open your browser, type 'http://192.168.16.1' into the address bar and click 'Go' to get to
the login page. Save this address in your Favorites for future reference.
At the User name prompt, type 'admin'. And the Password prompt, type 'admin'. You can change these later if
you wish. Click 'OK'.

3.3.2 System Time
Go to Maintenance->Time Zone and select system time as you wish.
Connecting to a Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) server allows the router to synchronize the system clock
to the global Internet. The synchronized clock in the router is used to recorded the security log and control client
filtering.
19
3.3.3 Admin Setting
Go to Maintenance-> Administration to set a new user's name and password to restrict management access to
the router.
The default is admin (User's name) and admin (Password)
20
