Connecting your device
This chapter provides basic instructions for connecting the
ADSL/VoIP Gateway to a computer or LAN and to the Internet.
In addition to configuring the device, you need to configure the
Internet properties of your computer(s).. For more details, see
the following sections:
• Configuring Ethernet PCs on page 88
• Configuring Wireless PCs on page 95
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.
Connecting the Hardware
This section describes how to connect the device to the wall
phone port, the power outlet and your computer(s) or network.
WARNING
Before you begin, turn the power off for all devices. These
include your computer(s), your LAN hub/switch (if applicable),
and the ADSL/VoIP Gateway.
The diagram below illustrates the hardware connections. The
layout of the ports on your device may vary from the layout
shown. Refer to the steps that follow for specific instructions.

Commonly used buttons
The following buttons are used throughout the web pages:
Button Function
You may need to configure the default
settings on more than one Web page.
Click on this button once you have
changed the configuration on your
current page and are ready to move
on to the next.
This button appears on every
configuration page. Click on this
button if at any time you decide that
you do not want to change the existing
settings.
This button appears on the final page
of a series of configuration pages.
Click on this button to confirm that you
are happy with the changes that you
have made and want to save them.
Radio buttons – these appear on
many configuration pages. You will be
asked to select one radio button from
the selection of two or more available.
You cannot select more than one
radio button at a time.
The following terms are used throughout this guide in
association with these buttons:
• Click – point the mouse arrow over the button, menu entry
or link on the screen and click the left mouse button. This
performs an action, such as displaying a new page.
ADSL/VoIP Gateway User’s Guide
22
• Select – usually used when describing which radio button to
select from a list, or which entry to select from a drop-down
list. Point the mouse arrow over the entry and left-click to
select it. This does not perform an action – you will also be
required to click on a button, menu entry or link in order to
proceed.
Help information
In addition to these buttons, you will also see the
information icon throughout the Web pages. The information
icon is followed by a link (called a hyperlink) to another web
page. Click on the hyperlink to display further information about
a specific configuration setting. For example, at the Current
Status page, clicking on the following hyperlink:
displays further information about the details displayed on the
Current Status page.
If you want to display an index of the Help information available
for all web pages, see Help on page 38.
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, turn on the device, wait for 30 seconds
and then verify that the LEDs are illuminated as follows:
Table 1. LED Indicators
LED Behavior
Power
Solid red to indicate that the device is turned on. If this light
is not on, check the power cable attachment.
Internet
Flashing on/off while data is being transferred. Solid red
when a valid IP address has been assigned to the device
by the ISP.
W-LAN
LINK/Act
Solid green to indicate that the Wireless LAN connection is
operational.
LINK/Act LAN
Flashing on/off while the device is booting. After about 1015 seconds, solid green to indicate that the device can
communicate with your LAN.
LINK/Act DSL
Flashing on/off while data is being transmitted. Solid green
to indicate that the device has successfully established a
connection with your ISP.
LINK/Act DSL
Flashing when the device is sending or receiving data from
the Internet. It may be unlit, flashing, or appear solid
depending on the current activity.
If the LEDs illuminate as expected, test your Internet connection
from a LAN computer. To do this, open your web browser, and
type the URL of any external website (such as
http://www.multitek.com.tr ). The LED labeled LINK/Act DSL
should blink rapidly and then appear solid as the device
connects to the site.
ADSL/VoIP Gateway User’s Guide
23
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, see Internet Access on page
63. If the LEDs still do not illuminate as expected or the web
page is not displayed, see Troubleshooting Suggestions on
page 100 or contact your ISP for assistance.
Default device settings
In addition to handling the DSL connection to your ISP, the
ADSL/VoIP Gateway can provide a variety of services to your
network. The device is preconfigured with default settings for
