How the KX-HGW200 Works
Your current setup
without the KX-HGW200 Internet and home network
with the KX-HGW200
Before installing the KX-HGW200
≥ The computer communicates with your ISP
through cable/xDSL modem.
≥ Then the computer sends your account
information to your ISP, and the ISP checks
whether or not you are a member.
That’s why computer stores all the information
for ISP recognition, i.e., login name and
password.
After installing the KX-HGW200
≥ The KX-HGW200 communicates with your
ISP instead of your computer. Therefore, the
KX-HGW200 needs to hold the same
account information as your computer
would.
≥ If you currently use a cable/xDSL modem
without the KX-HGW200, all the ISP
information that needs to be entered in the
KX-HGW200 is in your computer.
Please see p. 21 for details on how to collect
the information you have to enter in the
KX-HGW200.
Before you install the KX-HGW200, please confirm that you can
access the Internet with its current connection to a cable/xDSL
modem.
If you can not connect to the Internet from your computer, please set
up your computer to access the Internet according to the instructions
given by your cable/xDSL service provider before installing the
KX-HGW200.
