6. An installation diagram overview will now be displayed (see figure below). Please ensure
that you have correctly connected all the related hardware and cables. Please click “Next”.
7. The Network Connection Setup step will be displayed next (see figure below). Note that in
order for this wizard to set up your router successfully, your computer needs to be able to
communicate with the MWEB W40 router. This is achieved by setting your computer to
automatically obtain an IP address from the MWEB W40. Note that all static and custom network
settings will be overwritten for the selected network card.
This screen will allow you to choose the network card and to set it up to receive an IP address from
the MWEB W40. A list of the available network cards is displayed in the dropdown box at the top of
the form, while the detail of the currently selected card is displayed in the centre part of the form.
Please select the network card you want the wizard to alter from the dropdown box. Note that
wireless and other non-cable connections are not valid options and will thus not be displayed in the
list.
Once you have made your selection and confirmed that it is indeed the network card you want to
use, click on the “Setup Network Card” button in the bottom-right corner to setup your network
connection. On successful completion of this process, the Diagnostics test screen will appear.

If your network connection was already setup to obtain its IP
address automatically, you computer might have already
established communications with the MWEB W40 router and the
wizard might have skipped directly to the Diagnostics step.
For advanced users: If you do not wish to use the automatic
network card setup step and you want to use a static IP scheme,
please make sure that your network connection is setup in the
correct IP range. Note that the MWEB W40 has a default IP
address of 192.168.1.254, so your computer needs to be setup in
the following range 192.168.1.x. Also setup your default gateway
and DNS server to point to the IP address of the W40.
8. On the Diagnostics test screen (see figure below), four tests will be performed to determine
the current status of your MWEB W40 router. These tests include:
Testing the network connection to your MWEB W40
Testing ADSL Synchronization
Testing a PPP connection
Testing a limited Internet connection using the MWEB guest account
Click on the “Diagnose” button to start the test. Should any of the four tests fail, you will be notified
of the specific failure and assisted in correcting the fault. Please follow the instructions carefully in
order to rectify any possible problems. On passing all four tests, the wizard will proceed to the next
step: Telkom Line Verification.
9. If your line is verified, the easy setup wizard will continue to the next step. If not, the Telkom
Line Verification step will help you verify your ADSL service on the live Telkom ADSL verification
webpage. Please follow the instructions on the webpage as opened in the frame on the right hand
side of the form. See figure below – the red block indicates the Telkom webpage frame. On
