Side view
The Reset button is located on the side of the modem. Use a thin item to press the button. Press and hold the button for 15 seconds. Note! After this, all
settings which apply to your connection and network need to be reconfigured.
The splitter
In order to separate the ADSL signal from the normal telephone signal, you need to use a splitter. This enables you to simultaneously make calls and surf the
Internet using the same telephone line. The signal comes from the wall socket or the meter cupboard and enters the splitter. Two telephone cables are connected
to the output of the splitter. One leads to the modem and the other to the telephone.
Note! The ADSL modem does not include a splitter. It can be obtained from various DIY stores.
Connecting the Sweex ADSL 2 Modem
1. Connect the power adaptor (included) to the rear of the modem and the mains socket. The LED under PWR is lit. In the event the LED is not lit, check the
connections of the power adaptor to the ADSL modem and the mains socket.
2. Connect the telephone cable (RJ11) carrying the ADSL signal to the ADSL port at the rear of the modem. The LED under ADSL will now start to blink. After
approximately 30 seconds the LED will be lit continuously. In the event the LED is not lit, check whether the splitter is properly connected and/or whether the
ADSL line is ok.
3. Switch on the computer and connect it to the rear of the modem using a network cable (UTP RJ45). You can select any of the ports 1, 2, 3 and 4. The
corresponding LED at the front of the modem will be lit. In the event the LED fails to light up, check whether the network cable is properly connected to the
computer and the modem.
