1.1 Product Overview
DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) refers to a technology used to increase the data capacity
of standard twisted-pair wires that are generally used to connect most households to
the telephone network. In addition, this technology allows simultaneous voice and
high-speed data transmission over a single pair of telephone wires.
ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line), as its name indicates, is an asymmetrical
data transmission technology with higher traffic rates downstream and lower traffic
rates upstream. It is suitable for Internet users because information is usually
downloaded more often than uploaded, such as when surfing the web or downloading
files.
The Aolynk ADSL2+ router with embedded ADSL2+ technology brings up high-speed
internet access and remote connection features, which make it an ideal solution for
small businesses and SOHO users.
DR811/DR814 uses the ATM over ADSL2+ technology to communicate with the central
office providing the ADSL2+ service. As ATM PVC supports connections of various
types such as PPPoE, PPPoA, IPoA and bridge, Aolynk DR811/DR814 delivers great
networking flexibility and accommodates diversified requirements.
This type of router falls into 4 models as below.

2.1 Overview
This chapter provides basic instructions for connecting the ADSL router to a computer
or LAN.
This chapter assumes that you have already established a DSL service with your
Internet service provider (ISP). These instructions provide a basic configuration that
should be compatible with your home or small office network setup. Refer to the
subsequent chapters for additional configuration instructions.
When selecting a location for the ADSL router, allow ample clearance to access the
connections on the rear panel. For convenience, try to place the ADSL router near your
computer so you can monitor the LED indicators. Allow some space above the ADSL
router for ventilation to avoid problems with overheating.
The diagram below illustrates the hardware connections. Refer to the steps that follow
for specific instructions.

User Manual
Aolynk DR811/DR814 ADSL2+Broadband Router 2 Connecting Your Device
Two options are available for connecting the ADSL cable:
Option 1: Connect the ADSL port (same as a regular telephone port) on the rear panel
of DR811/DR814 to the wall jack of telephone line using the telephone cable.
Option 2: Connect the ADSL port on DR811/DR814 and a telephone set to a splitter,
and then the splitter to the wall jack of telephone line. Thus you may place phone calls
when accessing the Internet.
2) Connect the Ethernet cable
You can choose one of the following two options:
lIf you are connecting a LAN hub to the ADSL router, attach one end of the
provided Ethernet cable to a regular hub port and the other to the one of the
Ethernet ports on the device.
lIf you are connecting a single Ethernet computer to the ADSL router, attach it
directly to the one of the Ethernet ports on the device via an Ethernet cable.
3) Attach the power connector
Connect the power adapter to the Power connector on the back of the device and plug
the adapter into a wall outlet or power strip. DR811/DR814 has no power switch; so it is
powered on soon after the power cable is connected to the power jacket.
4) Configure your Ethernet PCs
You must also configure the Internet properties on your Ethernet PCs. Refer to ”5.1
Configuring Ethernet PCs”.
5) Install USB software and connect the USB cable
Only include this step if you want users to use the USB port.
You can attach a single computer to the device using a USB cable. The USB port is
useful if you have a USB-enabled PC that does not have a network interface card for
attaching to your Ethernet network.
Before attaching the USB cable, you must install a USB driver on your PC and
configure the computer. For complete instructions, refer to “5.2 Configuring a PC
Connected by USB Port.”
2.3 Finish
After setting up and configuring the device and PCs, you can log on to the device by
following the instructions in “3 Getting Started with
the Web Pages”.

3 Getting Started with
The ADSL router provides a series of web pages that function as an interface for
managing the device. These web pages enable you to configure the device to meet the
needs of your network. You can access them through your web browser from any PC
connected to the device viathe LAN or USB port.
3 Getting Started with
the Web Pages
the Web Pages
3.1 Accessing the Web Pages
To access the web pages, you need the following:
l A PC or laptop connected to the LAN or USB port on the device.
l A web browser installed on the PC. The minimum browser version requirement is
Internet Explorer v5.0 or Netscape v4. For the best display quality, use Internet
Explorer v6, or Netscape v6.1.
1. The default IP settings for the ADSL router are as follows:
IP address: 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Before performing the above configurations on the ADSL router, first have the computer
set in the same subnet with the router. To do so, first install and enable the TCP/IP
protocol (refer to 5.1 Configuring Ethernet PCs), and then set an IP address and a
subnet mask, for example, 192.168.1.100 and 255.255.255.0. Make sure the IP
settings place the computer in the same subnet as the router.
2. If the browser software on the computer you are using is configured to use
a proxy server for Internet access, it is necessary to first disable the proxy
connection.
In Windows Internet Explorer, you can check if a proxy server is enabled using the
following procedure:
lIn the Explorer Window, select and click on Tools->Internet Optionsto enter the
Internet Options window.
9
User Manual

click on a button, menu entry or link in order to proceed.
3.4 Testing Your Setup
Once you have connected your hardware and configured your PCs, any computer on
your LAN should be able to use the device’s DSL connection to access the Internet.
To test the connection, connect a single Ethernet computer to the ADSL router, plug the
power cable to POWER socket of the device, wait for 1 minute and then verify that the
LEDs are illuminating as follows:
Table 3-2 Router LEDs
3 Getting Started with
the Web Pages
LED Behavior
Power Solid green to indicate that the power has been switched on. If this light
is not on, check the power cable attachment.
Link Flashing on/off while the ADSL line of the device is being activated.
After about 20-30 seconds, solid green to indicate that the device is
now communicating normally with the central office.
Act Flashing on/off while data is being transmitted. Going off indicates that
no data transmission happens.
LAN Solid green to indicate that the Ethernet link is up.
Flashing on/off while Ethernet interface is transmitting or receiving data.
USB Solid green to indicate that the USB connection is operational.
If the LEDs illuminate as expected, test your Internet connection from the LAN
computer (and from the USB computer, if applicable): Open your web browser, and
type the URL of any external website (such as http://www.yahoo.com). The LED
labeled ADSL Act should be blinking rapidly and may appear solid as the device
connects to the site.
If the LEDs do not illuminate as expected, you may need to configure your Internet
access settings using the information provided by your ISP. For details, refer to”4.2
WAN Setting”. If the LEDs still do not illuminate as expected, or the web page is not
displayed, refer to “8.1 Troubleshooting Suggestions”, or contact your ISP for
assistance.

3.5 Default Device Settings
In addition to handling the DSL connection to your ISP, the ADSL router can provide a
variety of services to your network. The device is pre-configured with default settings
for use with a typical home or small office network.
The table below lists some of the most important default settings; these and other
features are described fully in the subsequent chapters. If you are familiar with network
configuration, review these settings to verify that they meet the needs of your network.
Follow the instructions to change them if necessary. If you are unfamiliar with these
settings, try using the device without modification, or contact your ISP for assistance.
We strongly recommend that you contact your ISP prior to changing the default
