Connecting the Modem to Your Computer
A. B.
First, connect the power adapter to the receptor at the back panel of the DSL-300T and then plug the other end of the power adapter to a wall outlet or power strip. The Power LED will turn ON to indicate proper operation.
Insert one end of the cable into the Ethernet port on the back panel of the DSL-300T and the other end of the cable to an Ethernet Adapter or available Ethernet port on your computer.
Configuring the Modem
To use your Web browser to access the web pages used to setup the Modem, your computer must be configured to “Obtain an IP address automatically”, that is, you must change the IP network settings of your computer so that it is a DHCP Client. If you are using Windows XP and do not know how to change your network settings, skip ahead to Appendix A and read the instructions provided. You may also read the User Manual for instructions on changing IP settings for computers running Windows operating systems.
Once you have logged in, the Home screen will appear. Click the Setup tab to go to the Setup menu and configure the Modem.
In the Setup menu, click the Connection button to go to the configuration menu for the Internet connection.
In the Connection menu, type the Username and Password used to verify the identity of your ISP account. It may be necessary to change the PPP encapsulation Type used for your connection. You may also need to change the VPI or VCI value. Your ISP will give these settings to you if they need to be changed. Click the Apply button when you have entered all the information. To save the changes made to Connection, click the Tools tab and follow the instructions on the next page.
Now save the changes you have just made. The Save function is accessed from the System Commands menu. Click the System Commands button to view that menu.
To save the new settings, click the Save All button in the System Commands menu. After a few seconds, the changes will be saved. The Modem will automatically establish the Internet connection after a few more seconds.
Wait a few seconds for the Internet connection to be established and proceed to access the Internet via your web browser.

For additional settings or information, refer to the Advanced, Tools, or Status tabs on the web-management interface; or to the manual located on the CD-ROM.
