1.1 Overview
The eircom D1000 modem is an ADSL2+ router that integrates DSL and NAT, and provides ease of
installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. The Device is also a complete security solution
with a robust firewall and content filtering.
Only use firmware for your Device’s specific model. Refer to the label on
the bottom of your Device.
1.2 Ways to Manage the Device
Use any of the following methods to manage the Device.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Device using a
(supported) web browser.
• Command Line Interface. Line commands are mostly used for troubleshooting by service
engineers.
• TR-069. This is an auto-configuration server used to remotely configure your device.
Introduction
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the Device
Do the following things regularly to make the Device more secure and to manage the Device more
effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different
types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier
working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you
forget your password, you will have to reset the Device to its factory default settings. If you
backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Device. You
could simply restore your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the Device
Here are some example uses for which the Device is well suited.

eircom D1000 modem User’s Guide
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.4.1 Internet Access
Your Device provides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to the DSL or MODEM
jack on a splitter or your telephone jack. Computers can connect to the Device’s Ethernet ports (or
wirelessly).
Figure 1 Device’s Router Features
You can also configure firewall and filtering feature on the Device for secure Internet access. When
the firewall is on, all incoming traffic from the Internet to your network is blocked unless it is
initiated from your network. This means that probes from the outside to your network are not
allowed, but you can safely browse the Internet and download files.
Use the filtering feature to block access to specific web sites or Internet applications such as MSN or
Yahoo Messenger. You can also configure IP/MAC filtering rules for incoming or outgoing traffic.
Use QoS to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving priority to certain types of traffic
and/or to particular computers. For example, you could make sure that the Device gives voice over
Internet calls high priority, and/or limit bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.
1.4.2 Wireless Access
The Device is a wireless Access Point (AP) for IEEE 802.11b/g/n compliant clients, such as notebook
computers or PDAs and iPads. It allows them to connect to the Internet without having to rely on
inconvenient Ethernet cables. You can set up a wireless network with WPS (WiFi Protected Setup)
or manually add a client to your wireless network.

eircom D1000 modem User’s Guide
1.4.3 Using the WPS/WLAN Button
By default, the wireless network on the Device is turned on. To turn it off, simply press the WPS/
WLAN button on top of the device for over 5 seconds. When the WPS/WLAN LED is green, the
wireless network is active.
You can also use the WPS/WLAN button to quickly set up a secure wireless connection between
the Device and a WPS-compatible client by adding one device at a time.
To activate WPS:
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on and not blinking.
2 Press the WPS/WLAN button for 1-5 seconds and release it.
3 Press the WPS button on another WPS-enabled device within range of the Device. The WPS/WLAN
LED should flash while the Device sets up a WPS connection with the other wireless device.
4 Once the connection is successfully made, the WPS/WLAN LED shines green.
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.5 The RESET Button
If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the RESET
button at the side panel of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means
that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the user name and password will be
1.5.1 Using the Reset Button
reset to the default.
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for ten seconds or
until the POWER LED begins to blink and then release it. When the POWER LED begins to blink,
the defaults have been restored and the device restarts.

Introducing the Web Configurator
2.1 Overview
The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy device setup and
management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later versions, Mozilla Firefox 3
and later versions, or Safari 2.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by
768 pixels.
In order to use the web configurator, you need to allow:
• Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in
2.1.1 Accessing the Web Configurator
Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
• JavaScript (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
1 Make sure your Device hardware is properly connected.
2 Launch your web browser.
3 Type "192.168.1.254" as the URL.
4 A password screen displays. Type “admin” (default) as the username and enter the default
password (which is the same as the wireless key on the Device’s back label), then click Login. If
you have changed the password, enter your new password and click Login.
Figure 3 Password Screen
Note: For security reasons, the Device automatically logs you out if you do not use the
web configurator for 900 seconds (default). If this happens, log in again.

5 If you enter the wrong username and/or password three times, the Device lockes you out of the
login screen for ten minutes and the following screen displays.
Figure 4 Lockout Screen
6 The following screen displays if you have not yet changed your password. It is strongly
recommended you change the default password. Enter a new password, retype it to confirm and
click Apply; alternatively click Skip to proceed to the next screen if you do not want to change the
password now.
Figure 5 Change Password Screen
The following screen displays and asks if you want to change your wireless settings, including SSID
and wireless security key. If you have changed the settings, click Apply. If not, click Skip to
proceed to the Connection Status screen if you do not want to change them now.
