Connecting to the Internet

Before start

Before start, you need to:

• make sure the cable connections are correct and DSL-N13 is powered ON;

• acquire an active Internet service, such as an ADSL account.

We recommend using wired connection for initial conguration, which may

help avoid possible setup problems due to wireless instability. Use a CAT5
cable to connect an Ethernet-enabled computer to a LAN port of DSL-N13.

Preparing your WAN

Depending on your ISP's requirements, you may need to acquire some of the
information listed below for setting up Internet connection on DSL-N13.

• Vitual Path Identifier (VPI)

• Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI)

• Host name

• Domain name

• ISP login user name and password

• ISP Domain Name System (DNS) server address

• Static IP address

Preparing your LAN

To use the DSL-N13 Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router on your network, you need to install
a network interface card (NIC) or an IEEE802.11b/g wireless network card to your computer.

LAN conguration requirement

For initial conguration, we recommend you to connect a computer to one of the LAN
port of DSL-N13 and congure the TCP/IP settings of your computer. The default IP

settings of DSL-N13 are:

IP address: 192.168.1.1

Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
