Connection Instructions:
1. Connect the power cable (known as the kettle lead) to the power-pack/transformer, and then connect this to the
router.
2. Should the router have a power switch, ensure it is turned on (the I is pressed down)
3. Connect the ADSL microlter to the telephone line (the DSL lter may be a solid unit as in the “Whats in the Box”
section, or it may have a short cable coming out of it to connect to the telephone line)
4. Connect one end of the DSL cable (there may be two similar cables in the box,
the DSL cable is the one with the smaller ends) to the port on the router marked
VDSL, with the pale purple surround, and the other end to the ADSL port on the
microlter. An analogue phone may be connected to the phone port on the
microlter if required, but do not connect a fax machine to this port
5. Connect a patch cable between any of the 4-port bank (marked LAN) on the Cisco
router and the customer switch. Should a switch not be required/installed, multiple
devices may be plugged directly in these ports (can be done at a later date if a
migration from existing services is required)
6. Leave the router connected up for a couple of minutes, whilst observing the lights
on the front of the Cisco router; the important two lights to be aware of are the CD
and PPP lights

your levels of ongoing support at this site.
