Preparing Your Computer

If an ISP technician configured your computer during the installation of the service for a static IP
address, or if you configured it for a static IP address using instructions provided by your ISP, you
need to be sure you have that configuration information recorded. You will need to configure your
computer’s TCP/IP settings to use a static IP address, , then connect to the modem to configure it.
Once the modem is set to operate in Modem Device Mode, you will need to reconfigure your
computer with the TCP/IP configuration you recorded from your ISP.

Restarting the Computer

Once you’ve set up your computer to work with the modem, you must reset the devices to be able
to communicate correctly.

1.

Pull the modem’s power adapter out of the socket on the back, then put it back in to reset
it, and wait about 10 seconds.

2.

Restart the computer that is connected to the modem.

Ready for Configuration

After configuring your computer for TCP/IP networking and connecting it to the DM602 modem,
you are ready to access and configure the modem. Proceed to the next chapter.
