DSL variants Four DSL variants of the SpeedTouch610 Business DSL routers exist:
•The SpeedTouch610 :
The ADSL/POTS variant connecting to an analog POTS(*) line
•The SpeedTouch610i :
The ADSL/ISDN variant connecting to a digital ISDN(**) line
•The SpeedTouch610s :
The SHDSL variant connecting to a dedicated SHDSL(***) line
•The SpeedTouch610v :
The SHDSL variant connecting to a dedicated VDSL(****) line
(*) Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS)
(**) Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)
(***) Symmetrical High speed Digital Subscriber Line (SHDSL)
(***) Very high speed Digital Subscriber Line (VDSL)
Use only the SpeedTouch™610 variant which is appropriate for the DSL service deliv-
ered to your local premises.
Check at your Service Provider whether your SpeedTouch610 variant meets the DSL
service requirements.
DSL service The appropriate DSL service must be available at your local premises:
•ADSL, SHDSL or VDSL service must be enabled on your phone line
•In case of ADSL, both POTS or ISDN and ADSL service are simultaneously avail-
able from the same copper pair. Therefore, you need a central splitter or distrib-
uted filters for decoupling ADSL and telephone signals.
Always contact your Service Provider for splitter/filter installation !
Public telephone lines carry voltages that can cause electric shock. Only install splitter/
filters yourself if they have been designed to be installed by unqualified personnel. Other
splitter/filters may only be installed by qualified service personnel.

The configuration
procedure
6The setup wizard should find your SpeedTouch610 device on the local
network. This is indicated by following window:
If the wizard does not find a SpeedTouch610 on the network an error
window pops up. In this case check that:
•Your PC is correctly wired to the SpeedTouch610
•No dedicated firewall device or a router is placed between your PC and
the SpeedTouch610 and that no personal firewall software is running
on your PC

of this procedure.
(*) In case of MS Windows 95 or Windows NT4.0 it is advised to configure
the PC with a static IP address, e.g. 10.0.0.101, which is unique (in case of a
local network). Make sure however not to use the 10.0.0.138 IP address as it is
the SpeedTouch™610's default IP address. For MS Windows 98, 98SE, ME,
2000 and XP OSs it is advised to configure the PC as a DHCP client. Refer to
the MS Windows user documentation for more information.
