P-660R-TxC Series Quick Start Guide
The P-660R-TxC ADSL2+ access router is the ideal device for small networks connecting to the Internet via ADSL. See your User’s Guide for background information on all features.

1 Hardware Connections

If you prefer to see a multi-media animation of how to make hardware connections, see the included CD.
1DSL: Use a telephone wire to connect your P-660R-TxC’s DSL port to a telephone jack (or to a splitter, if
one is already installed).
2ETHERNET: Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to the ETHERNET port for initial configuration
and/or Internet access.
3POWER: Use the included power adaptor to connect the POWER socket to an appropriate power source.
After you’ve made the connections, push in the power button to turn on the P-660R-TxC. Look at the lights on the front panel. The POWER light blinks while performing system testing. The POWER light then turns steady on if the testing is successful. The ETHERNET light turns on if the LAN port is properly connected.

2 Configuration for Internet Access

You may configure the P-660R-TxC for Internet access in any one of these ways:
• Configuration Genie
• Zero Configuration
Web Configurator Internet Access Wizard

P-660R-TxC Series Quick Start Guide
Note: Configuration genie and Zero configuration are only able to configure the device automatically for
Internet access if you are using PPPoE, PPPoA or ENET ENCAP encapsulation with a dynamically-assigned IP address from your ISP.
If you’re not using these Internet access settings, then use the Web Configurator Internet Access Wizard to manually configure the device.
You will need your Internet access information such as user name and password if given by your ISP.
INFORMATION FROM ISP
None RFC1483 Bridge N/A
An IP address only RFC1483 Routing Static
A user name and password PPPoA or PPPoE Routing Dynamic
A user name, password and an IP address PPPoA or PPPoE Routing Static

3 NAT

NAT (Network Address Translation - NAT, RFC 1631) means the translation of an IP address in one network to a different IP address in another. For example, you could translate one public IP address to multiple private IP addresses on your LAN (SUA Only). You must select Routing mode to use routing features such as NAT.
Click
Advanced Setup and
then NAT to open the NAT-Mode screen. Select SUA Only if you have one public IP address and Full Feature if you have multiple public IP addresses (for address translation).
If you have servers on your LAN, configure an SUA server set to have them visible to the outside. From the NAT - Mode screen click Edit Details and fill in the fields as shown.

4 Troubleshooting

PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION
None of the LEDs turn on when you connect the P­660R-TxC’s power.
Cannot access the P­660R-TxC from my computer.
Cannot access the Internet.
Make sure that you have the correct power adaptor connected to the P-660R-TxC, it is plugged into an appropriate power source and the P-660R-TxC is turned on.
Check all cable connections. If the LEDs still do not turn on, you may have a hardware problem. In this case, you should contact your local vendor.
Check the cable connection from your computer to the P-660R-TxC.
Make sure your computer’s IP address is in the same subnet as the P-660R-TxC’s IP address (see Section 4.1 on page 8).
Ping the P-660R-TxC from a computer on the LAN. Make sure your computer’s Ethernet adapter is installed and functioning properly. In the computer, click Start, (All) Programs, Accessories and then Command Prompt. In the Command Prompt window, type "ping" followed by the P-660R-TxC’s LAN IP address (192.168.1.1 is the default) and then press [ENTER]. The P-660R-TxC should reply; otherwise see
Section 4.1 on page 8.
If the P-660R-TxC’s IP address has changed, then enter the new one as the URL.
Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Netscape Navigator 7.0 and later with JavaScript enabled.
Make sure you enter the password correctly (the field is case sensitive).
If you’ve forgotten the P-660R-TxC’s password, use the RESET button. Press the button in for about 10 seconds (or until the POWER light starts to blink), then release it. It returns the P-660R-TxC to the factory defaults (password is 1234, LAN IP address
192.168.1.1 etc.; see your User’s Guide for details).
Verify the Internet connection settings in the wizard. Make sure you entered the correct user name and password if you are using PPPoE or PPPoA.
The P-660R-TxC stores the Internet connection settings that it detects using zero configuration. Reset the P-660R-TxC to the factory defaults or manually configure it for Internet access if you connect it to another DSL line with a different VPI and VCI.

4.1 Set Up Your Computer’s IP Address

This section shows you how to set your Windows NT/2000/XP computer to automatically get an IP address. This ensures that your computer can connect with your P-660R-TxC. Refer to your User’s Guide for detailed IP address configuration for other Windows and Macintosh computer operating systems.
1 In Windows XP, click start, Control Panel. In Windows 2000/NT, click Start, Settings, Control Panel.
2 In Windows XP, click Network Connections. In Windows 2000/NT, click Network and Dial-up
Connections.
