2.5 Cabling

Through USB Port

The product can be used as a Network Adapter on your PC. That means you do not have to

install a network adapter first on your PC before connecting the ADSL Modem/Router. Just

connect the supplied USB cable to the USB port of the ADSL2+ Modem/Router and connect

the other end to the PC.

Make sure that your ADSL Modem/Router and PC are turned on. On the front of the product

is a bank of LEDs. As a first check, please verify that the PWR, SYS, USB and ADSL LEDs

are lit.

So long as the cables are connected and the LEDs are lit normally, follow section “Installing

the USB Driver” below to setup this device.

Through Ethernet Port

The product’s LAN port is wired just like a Network Adapter’s port. From the product directly

to a PC, the cable should be an Ethernet crossover cable. From the product to a hub or

switch, the cable should be an Ethernet straight through cable to a normal hub/switch port,

or an Ethernet crossover cable to an uplink port.

The most common problem associated with Ethernet is bad cabling or ADSL line. Make sure

that all connected devices are turned on. On the front of the product is a bank of LEDs. As a

first check, please verify that the PWR, LAN LNK and ADSL SYN LEDs are lit. If they are not,

verify that you are using the proper cables.

So long as the cables are connected and the LEDs are lit normally, follow section

“Configuring the Network Properties” below to modify the network settings.

Attention

Since the product cannot auto-detect whether your cable is

correct or not, please make sure you are using the right

cable to a PC or a Hub.
