■ Were told by your ISP to use this Configuration with another Easy Config profile.
■ Wish to use the NB1300 with a computer that does not have an Ethernet socket. This
computer will use a Private IP address and will be protected from the Internet by the

USB Gateway Configuration (Multiple public IPs to Multiple internal IPs) - If you do not
have an Ethernet port on your computer you can use your USB port like an Ethernet port to
connect to the NB1300. This "simulated" Ethernet port is only for connecting to the NB1300
and is only available for Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. The NB1300 will log
on to your ISP on behalf of your computer and it will shield your computer from Internet attack
by using NAT.
Before continuing, ensure you have the following items and information ready:
■ A Windows 98SE, ME, 2000 or XP client machine.
■ A telephone line with ADSL service enabled.
■ User Name, Password, VPI, VCI, encapsulation and DNS server settings for your ADSL
account (ask your ISP if unsure).
Note: Please be aware that connection via USB is only supported in Windows 98SE,
Windows Me, Windows 2000 and Windows XP. For Windows 95, NT, Linux and
Macintosh you should use the Ethernet port of your NB1300.
