Chapter 2 Installation

2.1 Hardware Installation

In the rear panel, there is a reset button. It is used to load the factory default
settings. Hold down the button until the LED’s start blinking simultaneously
(about 5 seconds). After the device has booted successfully, the factory default
settings are retrieved.
Power Switch
Follow the instructions below to complete the hardware connections.
Connection to LINE port
If you wish to connect both the router and a telephone, connect the LINE port to a
POTS splitter with a RJ11 connection cable.
Connection to LAN port
To connect to a hub or PC, use a RJ45 cable. You can connect the router to one LAN
device. The ports are auto-sensing MDI/X and either straight-through cable or
Reset button
crossover cable can be used.
Connection to Power
10
Connect the Power jack to the shipped power cord. Attach the power adapter to
the wall outlet or other AC source.
After all connections have been made, push the power switch in, to the on position.
After powering on, the router performs a self-test. Wait for a few seconds until the
test is finished, then the router will be ready to operate.
Caution 1: If the router fails to power up, or it malfunctions, first verify that the
power supply is connected correctly. Then power it on again. If the
problem persists, contact our technical support engineers.
Caution 2: Before servicing this equipment always disconnect all power cords and
telephone lines from the wall outlet.
11

Chapter 3 Login via the Web Browser

This section describes how to manage the router via a Web browser via the remote
end. You can use a web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, or Netscape
Navigator. (The Web page is best viewed with Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 and
later): A unique default user account is assigned with user name root and password
12345. The user can change the default password later when logged in to the
device.

3.1 IP Address

The default IP address of the CT-5071T (LAN port) is 192.168.1.1. To configure the
CT-5071T for the first time, the configuration PC must have a static IP address
within the 192.168.1.x subnet. Follow the steps below to configure your PC IP
address to use subnet 192.168.1.x.
STEP 1: Right click on the Local Area Connection under the Network and Dial-Up
connection window and select Properties.
STEP 2: Enter the TCP/IP screen and change the IP address to the domain of
192.168.1.x/24.
Note that the router’s default IP address is 192.168.1.1 and the default private
address range provided by the ISP server in the router is 192.168.1.2 through
192.168.1.254.
12
STEP 3: Click OK to submit the settings.
STEP 4: Start your Internet browser and type the IP address for the router
(192.168.1.1) in the Web address bar.
13

3.2 Login Procedure

Perform the following steps to bring up the Web user interface and configure the
CT-5071T. To log on to the system from the Web browser, follow the steps below:
STEP 1: Start your Internet browser. Type the IP address for the router in the Web
address field. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.1.1, type
http://192.168.1.1
STEP 2: You will be prompted to enter your user name and password. Type root in
the user name and 12345 in the password field, and click OK. These
values can be changed later in the Web User Interface by selecting the
Management link.
STEP 3: After successfully logging in, you will reach the Quick Setup menu.
14

3.3 Default Settings

During power on initialization, the CT-5071T initializes all configuration attributes to
default values. It will then read the configuration profile from the Permanent
Storage section on the flash memory. The default attributes are overridden when
identical attributes with different values are configured. The configuration profile
in Permanent Storage can be created via the Web user interface or telnet user
interface, or other management protocols. The factory default configuration can be
restored either by pushing the reset button for more than five seconds, or by
clicking the Restore Default Configuration option in the Restore Settings screen.
The following default settings are present when setting up the router for the first
time. The PC running the browser can be attached to the Ethernet.
LAN port IP address: 192.168.1.1
Local administrator account name: root
Local administrator account password: 12345
Local non- administrator account name: user
Local non- administrator account password: user
Remote WAN access: disabled
Remote WAN access account name: support
Remote WAN access account password: support
NAT and firewall: disabled
DHCP server on LAN interface: enable
WAN IP address: none

Chapter 5 Quick Setup

The Quick Setup allows the user to configure the ADSL router for DSL connectivity
and Internet access. It also guides the user though the WAN network setup first
and then the LAN interface setup. You can either manually customize the router or
follow the online instruction to set up the router.
The CT-5071T ADSL router supports the following five network operating modes
over an ATM PVC WAN interface.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
PPP over ATM (PPPoA)
MAC Encapsulated Routing (MER)
IP over ATM (IPoA)
Bridging
The following configuration considerations apply:
The WAN network operating mode operation depends on the service provider’s
configuration on the Central Office side and Broadband Access Server for the
PVC
If the service provider provides PPPoE service, then the connection selection
depends on whether the LAN-side device (typically a PC) is running a PPPoE
client or whether the CT-5071T is to run the PPPoE client. The CT-5071T can
support both cases simultaneously.
If some or none of the LAN-side devices do not run PPPoE client, then select
PPPoE. If every LAN-side device is running a PPPoE client, then select Bridge
In PPPoE mode, CT-5071T also supports pass-through PPPoE sessions from the
LAN side while simultaneously running a PPPoE client for non-PPPoE LAN
devices. NAT and firewall are always enabled when PPPoE mode is selected, but
they can be enabled or disabled by the user when MER or IPoA is selected, NAT
and firewall are always disabled when Bridge mode is selected.
Depending on the network operating mode, and whether NAPT and firewall are
enabled or disabled, the main panel will display or hide the NAPT/Firewall menu.
For instance, at initial setup, the default network operating mode is Bridge.
The main panel will not show the NAPT and Firewall menu.
27
Note: Up to eight PVC profiles can be configured and saved on the flash memory. To
activate a particular PVC profile, you need to navigate all the Quick Setup pages
until the last summary page, then click on the Finish button and reboot the system.

5.1 Auto Quick Setup

The auto quick setup requires the ADSL link to be up. The ADSL router will
automatically detect the PVC. You only need to follow the online instructions that
you are prompted.
1. Select Quick Setup to display the DSL Quick Setup screen.
2. Click Next to start the setup process. Follow the online instructions to complete
the setting. This procedure will skip some processes like PVC index, or
encapsulation.
3. After the settings are complete, you can use the ADSL service.
28

5.2 Manual Quick Setup

STEP 1: Click Quick Setup and un-tick the DSL Auto-connect checkbox to enable
manual configuration of the connection type.
Un-tick this checkbox to enable manual setup and display
the following screen.
STEP 2: Enter the Virtual Path Identifier (VPI) and Virtual Channel Identifier (VCI).
Select Enable Quality Of Service if required. Click Next.
