Overview

The P-2812HNU-51c is a router which combines high-speed VDSL/
ADSL Internet access, a built-in switch, a firewall and high-speed
wireless networking capability. The P-2812HNU-51c comes with two
phone ports for making calls over the Internet (Voice over IP or VoIP). It
also has two USB 2.0 ports for a 3G WAN connection via a 3G wireless
card and/or sharing files via a USB compatible storage device. The P­2812HNU-51c can also function as a print server.

Requirements

Make sure you have the following things before you start.

• Internet access - account information provided by your ISP, such as
user name, password, and so on.

• VoIP account - You need the account information provided by your
VoIP service provider (the company that lets you make phone calls
over the Internet).

• 3G account - if you want to access the Internet through a 3G
network. The P-2812HNU-51c uses this 3G connection as a
backup when the DSL or Ethernet WAN connection fails.

3

• Internet Explorer 6.0 and later versions, with JavaScript en abled, or
Mozilla Firefox 3 and later versions or Safari 2.0 and later versions.

1. Do one of the following for your Internet connection:
a. DSL: Use a telephone wire to connect this port to a telephone jack

(or the DSL or MODEM jack on a splitter, if you have one). Make
sure the DSL/WAN switch is set to the DSL side.

b. WAN: If you have a DSL router or modem already in your network

or you want to use a cable modem or optical network terminal/unit
(ONT/ONU), push the DSL/W AN switch to the WAN side and use
an Ethernet cable to connect this port to an Ethernet jack with
Internet access.

2. ETHERNET: Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to one of
these ports for initial configuration and/or Internet access.

3. USB 2.0: Connect a USB (version 2.0 or lower) memory stick or a
USB hard drive for file sharing, or connect a 3G wireless card for
accessing the Internet through a 3G network. You can also use a
USB cable (not provided) to connect a USB printer (version 2.0 or
lower) to this port. The P-2812HNU-51c automatically detects the
USB device. Use a USB extension cable if the stick is too big to fit.

4. PHONE: Use a telephone cable (and any telephone adaptor provided
with your P-2812HNU-51c) to connect a telephone to the PHONE 1
or PHONE 2 port. If you only have one telephone, you should use
port 1.

5. Use the power adaptor provided with your P-2812HNU-51c to
connect an appropriate power source to this socket.

6. Push the power button to the on position.

Look at the LEDs (lights) on the rear panel of the P-2812HNU-51c.
