Connecting via USB or Ethernet?

The NB1300 can be connected via a USB cable or an Ethernet cable or both. The reason for this is that the USB connection is simply an ehternet simulation, as far as your computer is concerned the USB connection is an Ethernet connection, hence DHCP and other protocols will work the same as for Ethernet.

Connecting your NB1300 ADSL Modem via Ethernet

1. Connect your NB1300 to either a computer directly or a network hub or siwtch using cat5 ethernet cables. You need to ensure you are using the correct type of etherent cable - ie straight through or crossover.

Overview Section

2. Connect the power pack to the NB1300 ADSL Modem and switch on the power switch.

3. Ensure that there is a LAN link light on the NB1300.

4. Ensure that the computer you intend to use has an IP address in the same subnet as the NB1300 ADSL Modem. (e.g. the NB1300’s default IP is 192.168.1.1 - your computer should be on 192.168.1.100 or similar.) If you have DHCP enabled on your computer, the NB1300 will assign your computer a suitable IP address.

5. Ensure that your computer has a LAN link light.

6. Connect one end of the ADSL phone line to the NB1300 ADSL Modem and the other end to the wall socket.

Rev. 1 - YML672 www.netcomm.com.au NB1300_2 ADSL Modem Page 5

Connecting your NB1300 ADSL Modem via USB

1. Connect the power pack to the NB1300 ADSL Modem and switch on the power switch.

Overview Section

2. Connect your NB1300 to a computer directly via USB cable.

3. The Add New Hardware Wizard will launch and prompt you to provide a driver for your NB1300 ADSL Modem. Insert the CD ROM provided.

4. Connect one end of the ADSL phone line to the NB1300 ADSL Modem and the other end to the wall socket.

Installing the USB driver (Windows 98/Me/2000/XP only)

When you install the USB driver on your computer it creates a Virtual Ethernet Adapter, which can be configured in the same way as a Network Interface card with DHCP or static IP address. To install the USB driver please follow the steps below;

1. Boot your machine into Windows 98/Me/2000/XP.

2. Insert your NetComm NB1300 CD ROM into your CD-ROM drive.

3. Plug power up to your NB1300 and switch ON.

4. Plug a USB cable from the back of the unit into a spare USB socket on your computer.

5. The Windows “Add New Hardware Wizard” should appear. Click Next to continue.

6. Ensure the option “Search for the best driver….” is chosen and click Next.

7. When prompted where you would like to look for the drivers choose “Specify location” and untick any other boxes. Then click the browse button to select the CD-ROM drive which you inserted you NetComm CD-ROM into. Then choose the ‘USBdriver’ folder.

Do I need a Micro filter?

Micro filters are used to prevent common telephone equipment, such as phones, answering machines and fax machines, from interfering with your ADSL service. If your ADSL enabled phone line is being used with any other equipment other than your ADSL Modem then you will need to use one Micro filter for each phone device.

Splitters may be installed when your ADSL line is installed or when your current phone line is upgraded to ADSL. If your telephone line is already split you will not need to use a Microfilter

- check with your ADSL service provider if you are unsure. Each micro filter is connected in-line with your telephone or fax machine so that all signals pass

through it. T elephones and/or facsimiles in other rooms that are using the same extension will also require Microfilters. The following diagram gives an example of connecting your ADSL Modem/Router using a Microfilter.

A suitable Microfilter can be purchased from NetComm or your Service Provider, if required.

should be able to access the Internet through the unit, when it is set to be your gateway on

your computer/s. Refer to Step 3 for more information.

Step 3: Configuring your Computer to use the NB1300

To use the NB1300 ADSL Modem to access the Internet, your computer must have an IP Address that is in the same LAN subnet as the NB1300 ADSL Router and use the NB1300 ADSL Router’s IP address as its gateway.

Most applications call for the Primary and Secondary DNS server entries to be made on each computer. These can be automatically assigned by another DHCP server or by enabling the DHCP server on the NB1300 ADSL Modem, and entering the DNS values in the DNS section of the NB1300.

The following example shows how a computer could be set up when the NB1300 ADSL Modem is configured with no DHCP service for this example. The NB1300 ADSL Modem would be set to a LAN IP Address (Gateway) of 192.168.1.1 with a Subnet Mask of

255.255.255.0
