Before You Begin
You can connect your modem router directly to a DSL line.
Note: Make sure that your DSL service is active before you install
the modem router. You need the information listed here to install your
DSL modem and connect to the Internet. Locate it and have it on
hand before you start the installation procedure.
• DSL user name and password. This information is included in
the welcome letter your DSL ISP sent you when you signed up for
your service.
• Your telephone number or DSL account number. If you do not
have voice service, you can use your DSL account number in
place of a phone number.
If you do not know or cannot locate your user name and password,
call your DSL Internet service provider.
Be specific when speaking with your DSL Internet service provider.
For example, you could say:
I need my DSL service user name and password. Can you help me?
Note: If your provider says that they do not support NETGEAR
services, tell them you need only your DSL user name and password;
you do not need support.

a. Install an ADSL microfilter between the phone line and the
phone.
b. Connect the DSL port of the modem router to the ADSL port
of the microfilter.
c. Use an ADSL microfilter for every phone line in the house if
your modem router and telephone connect to the same
phone line.
2. Power on the modem router.
a. Connect the power adapter to the modem router, and plug
the power adapter into an outlet.
