Planning Your Network
Before moving ahead to setup your network, it is a good idea to draw out a network
diagram to help identify the devices and plan out how to connect these devices. The
illustration below is an example of a network diagram.
Sample network diagram
To create a network diagram:
For wireless devices, identify the wireless devices you want to include in the
network
For wired devices, identify which router port you want to use for each device.

Installing the Router
When installing the router, the common practice is to have the router, the main
computer, and phone jack in the same room. The room should also have enough
electrical outlets to match your needs.
Connecting with the POTS Splitter
A phone line can carry phone call and Internet signals. When you enable the phone line
for high speed Internet, the connection produces high-pitched tones when using the
phone. Installing a Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) splitter separates the two signals
and eliminates the noise.
Note: Consult your service provider what type of POTS Splitter should be used.
The POTS Splitter separates the connection for the router and telephone
To connect with the POTS Splitter:
1. Locate the phone jack in your house.
2. Insert the POTS Splitter into the phone jack.
3. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the POTS Splitter’s ADSL port and then
plug the other end into the router’s DSL port.
4. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the POTS Splitter’s TEL port and then
plug the other end into the telephone.
