Before installing your X4 ADSL modem, you must have DSL
service enabled on your telephone line. To do this, you need to
sign up with a DSL service provider. They will arrange to have
DSL enabled, and provide you with a User Name and Password (if
required) and the Communications Settings necessary to log on to
their network.
You will need your User Name and Password to complete the
installation, so please make sure you have them at hand.

1.3 Quick Start Instructions
Your computer should be on.
Windows users: You can connect your X4 unit to your computer’s
Ethernet or USB port. Macintosh and Linux users: You must select
the Ethernet option. Depending on your operating system and
preference, follow the appropriate instructions below.
Note:
6X4 ADSL Modem User’s Manual
Windows users have the option of using both the X4’s
Ethernet jack and its USB jack. By connecting two
computers individually to your X4 unit—one using the
Ethernet jack and the other using the USB jack—it is
possible to share Internet access.

Using Phone Filters
You should use a filter with each device—phone, fax machine,
analog modem, etc.—that is sharing the DSL-enabled line, because
this prevents the device from receiving noise when the DSL
modem is on. Your X4 modem includes an onboard filter, so you
can plug a phone or other device directly into the X4’s
jack if you like. Plugging a device into this jack is optional, not
required.

2.4 NAT Firewa ll
The X4’s built-in NAT (Network Address Translation) firewall
provides a good level of protection from unauthorized access.
NAT keeps private a network’s internal IP addresses and presents
to the Internet one public IP address. With NAT, only one LAN
user can use the public IP address. NAT’s more robust
counterpart, NAPT (Network Address Port Translation), allows
specified LAN users to share the one public IP address. Both
NAPT and NAT are transparent to end users.
Your X4’s NAT firewall is enabled by default; the default setting is
dynamic NAPT
anyone can use the public IP address (that is, the modem’s WAN
IP address). You shouldn’t need to change this setting. However, if

2.5 Virtual Server (Port Forwarding)
If you need to allow outside users access to a computer (or
computers) on your LAN—for example, if you are hosting an
Internet game—you have to open up an X4’s inbound port. A port
is an endpoint to a logical connection. The port number identifies
the logical channel being used; for instance, port 21 is associated
with FTP (File Transport Protocol). If a port is not opened, the X4
will block and discard the packets.
One way to open up a port is to implement a virtual server
(sometimes referred to as port forwarding). Note that one virtual
server entry opens up one port. It is possible to open multiple
ports (for a maximum of 20), but you have to configure a virtual
server entry for each one individually. In other cases, you might
want to have all ports open to one computer and for this you need
to set up a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ); see page 25 for instructions
on configuring a DMZ.
An example will help to illustrate how to set up a virtual server. In
our example, we will demonstrate how to use your computer as an
FTP server.
Tip:
We recommend that you visit the ports list section of
Practically Networked’s web site if you need help:

without a DMZ you would always have to be the one to initiate a

The X4 includes a routing table function for users who want to set
up an additional network (or networks) residing on a different
subnet than the X4. Without a route table, any computer residing
on an additional subnet would be invisible to the modem. The
route table acts as a map for the modem, so that it directs traffic to
the correct subnet location.

Regulatory Information
U.S. FCC Part 68 Statement
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the req uirements
adopted by the ACTA. The unit bears a label on the back which contains among
other information a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If
requested, this number must be provid ed to the telephone company.
This equipment uses the following standard jack types for network connection:
RJ11C.
This equipment contains an FCC compli ant m odular jack. It is designed to be
connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using compatible modular
plugs and cabling which comply with the requirements of FCC Part 68 rules.
The Ringer Equivalence Number, or REN, is used to determine the number of
devices which may be connected to t he telephone line. An excessive REN may
cause the equipment to not ring in response to an incoming call. In most areas, the
sum of the RENs of all equipment on a line should not exceed five (5.0).
In the unlikely event that this equipment causes harm to the telephone network,
the telephone company can temporarily disconnect your service. The telephone
company will try to warn you in advance of any su ch disconnection, but if advance
notice isn't practical, it may disconnect the service first and notify you as soon as
possible afterwards. In the event such a disconnection is deemed necessary, you
will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.
From time to time, the telephone company may make changes in its fac ilities,
