Appendix B

This guide covers most dial-up or remote access connections that are configured
for Dynamic or Static IP addressing. This Guide assumes that you have active and
properly functioning analog or ISDN Internet service. If you are uncertain about
which type of configuration you have, refer to the User Guide located on the
U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM for more advanced setup procedures.

Note:

The Wireless Cable/DSL Router requires an external analog or ISDN modem

for dial-up functionality. Your analog or ISDN modem must be connected to your
computer via an RS-232 serial connection. The Wireless Cable/DSL Router is not
compatible with analog or ISDN modems with only a USB connection. You must
also have an Ethernet adapter (NIC) or 802.11b Wireless Adapter installed in
your computer.

You need to gather the following information about your Dial-up or Remote Access
connection to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Contact your ISP for assistance
in obtaining this information.

*If you are using Windows, go to your Dial-up Networking or Network and Dial-up Connections

folder to get this information. If you are using a Macintosh, enter Remote Access through Control

Panels to get this information.

Not all of this information may be required for the installation of the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router. If your ISP cannot provide you with this information, the following
basic steps will assist you in gathering most of the required information.
