2 Basic Installation
Before you begin
Make sure you read the safety instructions and regulatory notices first. You can find the safety instructions on
the Setup CD (see “2.2 Installing your Thomson Gateway” on page 7). They may also be provided as a
printed booklet.
DSL service
The DSL service must be up and running on your telephone line.
If both conventional telephone and DSL service are simultaneously available from the same copper pair, you
will need a central splitter or distributed filters for decoupling DSL and telephone signals.
Computer requirements
> To connect computer(s) via Ethernet, make sure the computer(s) are equipped with an Ethernet network
interface card (NIC).
> For wireless networking, you will need a wireless 802.11 b/g compatible client adapter for each computer
you intend to connect wirelessly.
Wireless client adapters
You can use one of the following wireless client adapters:
> Thomson ST110g CardBus
> Thomson ST121g USB adapter
> Thomson ST122g USB adapter
> Any other Wi-Fi certified WLAN client
Internet connection details
You need the following connection details from your Internet Service Provider (ISP):
> Your ISP’s method for connecting to the Internet (for example PPPoE, IPoA)
> The VPI/VCI (for example 8/35) and encapsulation type
> Your user name and password to connect to the Internet for PPP connections
> Your IP settings in case of static configurations
You must have received this information when you subscribed to DSL at your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
You will be prompted for this information at a given step in the installation procedure.
!
Public telephone lines carry voltages that can cause electric shock. Only try to set up splitter/filters
that have been designed to be installed by unqualified personnel. For further assistance, contact
your Internet Service Provider.
i
Optionally your ISP may indicate the Service Profile to use in the Home
Install Wizard or Easy Setup.

2.1 Mounting your Thomson Gateway
Setup possibilities
You can mount the Thomson Gateway on a wall or simply place it on a desk.
Wall mount
Proceed as follows to mount the Thomson Gateway on a wall or other vertical surface:
1 Drill two holes in the wall or other vertical surface where you want to place the Thomson Gateway.
2 Fasten two screws in the wall holes. The screws should protrude five millimetres from the surface of the
wall.
3 Attach your Thomson Gateway on the wall using the two mounting slots on the bottom.
i
If you install the Thomson Gateway onto plasterboard, use dowels to secure the screws.
Otherwise the strain of the cables connected to the Thomson Gateway rear panel connectors
could pull the Thomson Gateway from the wall.
