computer, and phone jack in the same room. The room should also have enough
electrical outlets to match your needs.
To setup the hardware:
1. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable from the router’s ETHERNET
ETHERNET port and then plug
ETHERNET ETHERNET
the other end into the Ethernet port in your computer.
2. If you have another device you need to connect through wire into the router, use
another piece of Ethernet cable. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable from the
computer’s Ethernet port and then plug the other end into an available Ethernet
port.
3. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the POTS Splitter’s ADSL
plug the other end into the router’s DSL
