Chapter 3 - Your Gateway At A Glance
The ADSL2+ Ethernet & USB Combo may have different ports and LEDs. Let’s take a look at the different options. Depending on your model, it may have some or all of the features listed below.
3.1 Ports and Buttons
Reset and Restore to Factory Defaults: The restore to factory defaults feature will set the ADSL Router to its factory default configuration by resetting the ADSL Router. You may need to place the ADSL Router into its factory defaults if the configuration is changed; you lose the ability to interface to the ADSL Router via the web interface, or following a software upgrade. To reset the ADSL Router, simply press the reset button for about ~ 10 seconds. The ADSL Router will be reset to its factory defaults and after about 30 ~ 40 seconds the ADSL Router will become operational again.
LAN (local area network) ETHERNET port: connects to Ethernet network devices, such as a PC, hub, switch, or routers. Some ADSL Router came with a single LAN connection and some come with four LAN connections. Depending on the connection, you may need a cross over cable or a straight through cable.
Power
is where you connect the power. Make sure to observe the proper power requirements.
The required power is 9 volts.
USB (universal serial port): connects to a PC’s USB port. The ADSL Router only supports Window’s based PCs via an RNDIS driver (included in the software). For model with USB port ONLY.
DSL port: This is the WAN interface that connects directly to your phone line.

Chapter 4- Setting Up the ADSL Router
This section will guide you through your ADSL Router’s configuration. The ADSL Router is shipped with a standard PPP configuration.
The basic tabs consist of features which are catered for basic users.
3.3 Logging into your ADSL Router
To configure your ADSL Router, open your web browser. You may get an error message at this point; this is normal. Type the default IP address (192.168.1.1) or login.router on the web address bar.
NOTE: Before setting up your ADSL Router, make sure you have followed the
easy start guide. You should have your computers configured for DHCP
mode and have proxies disabled on your browser. Upon accessing the ADSL Router, if the browser still displays a login redirection screen, you should check your browser's setting and ensure that the JavaScript support is enabled. If the screen shown in Fig 1-4 is not attainable, you must delete your temporary Internet files to clear the web cache.
Upon entering the default IP address or the short-cut name (login.router), if the user is logging for the first time, the user will be brought to the “Quick Start” page. See Fig 1.4. The Quick Start page is meant for basic users whom only require easy connectivity to the Internet without worrying about any other advance configuration setting. If you are in doubt for what content to enter for the Protocol, VPI and VCI, please contact your Service Provider for assistance.
