1 Safety Precautions
Read the following information carefully before operating the device. Please follow
the following precaution items to protect the device from risks and damage caused
by fire and electric power:
Use volume labels to mark the type of power.
Use the power adapter that is packed within the device package.
Pay attention to the power load of the outlet or prolonged lines.An
overburden power outlet or damaged lines and plugs may cause electric
shock or fire accident. Check the power cords regularly. If you find any
damage, replace it at once.
Proper space left for heat dissipation is necessary to avoid any damage
caused by overheating to the device. The holes on the device are designed
for heat dissipation to ensure that the device works normally. Do not cover
these heat dissipation holes.
Do not put this device close to a place where a heat source exits or high
temperature occurs. Avoid the device from direct sunshine.
Do not put this device close to a place where is over damp or watery. Do not
spill any fluid on this device.
Do not connect this device to any PC or electronic product, unless our
customer engineer or your broadband provider instructs you to do this,
because any wrong connection may cause any power or fire risk.
Do not place this device on an unstable surface or support.

2 Overview
The DSL Router is a highly ADSL2+ Integrated Access Device and can support
ADSL link with downstream up to 24 Mbps and upstream up to 1 Mbps. It is
designed to provide a simple and cost-effective ADSL Internet connection for a
private Ethernet or 802.11g/802.11b/802.11n wireless network. The Router
combines high-speed ADSL Internet connection, IP routing for the LAN and
wireless connectivity in one package. It is usually preferred to provide high access
performance applications for the individual users, the SOHOs, and the small
enterprises.
The Router is easy to install and use. The Modem connects to an Ethernet LAN or
computers via standard Ethernet ports. The ADSL connection is made using
ordinary telephone line with standard connectors. Multiple workstations can be
networked and connected to the Internet by a single Wide Area Network (WAN)
interface and single global IP address. The advanced security enhancements,
packet filtering and port redirection, can help protect your network from potentially
devastating intrusions by malicious agents from outside your network.
Network and Router management is done through the web-based management
interface that can be accessed through the local Ethernet using any web browser.
You may also enable remote management to enable configuration of the Router via
the WAN interface.

specification, it may damage the device.
3.2 Hardware Installation
3.2.1 Choosing the Best Location for Wireless Operation
Many environmental factors may affect the effective wireless function of the DSL
Router. If this is the first time that you set up a wireless network device, read the
following information:
The access point can be placed on a shelf or desktop, ideally you should be able to
see the LED indicators in the front, as you may need to view them for troubleshooting.
Designed to go up to 100 meters indoors and up to 300 meters outdoors, wireless
LAN lets you access your network from anywhere you want. However, the numbers of
walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through limit signal
range. Typical ranges vary depending on types of materials and background RF
noise in your home or business.
3.2.2 Connecting the Device
Please follow the steps below to connect the device.
Step1 Connect the Line port of the DSL router with a telephone cable.
Step2 Connect the LAN port of the DSL router to the network card of the PC via
an Ethernet cable.

8
Step3 Plug one end of the power adapter to the wall outlet and connect the
other end to the Power port of the DSL Router.
The followig figure displays the connection of the DSL router, PC, and telephones.

4 PC Network Configuration and Login
4.1 PC Network Configuration
Each network interface on the PC should either be configured with a statically defined
IP address and DNS address, or be instructed to automatically obtain an IP address
using the network DHCP server. DSL router provides a DHCP server on its LAN and
it is recommended to configure your LAN to automatically obtain its IP address and
DNS server IP address.
The configuration principle is identical but should be carried out differently on each
operating system.
The following displays the TCP/IP Properties dialog box on Windows XP.

10
Figure 4 IP and DNS configuration
TCP/IP configuration steps for Windows XP are as follows:
Step1 Choose Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
Step2 Right-click the Ethernet connection icon and choose Properties.
Step3 On the General tab, select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) component
and click Properties.
Step4 The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window appears.

11
Step5 Select the Obtain an IP address automatically radio button.
Step6 Select the Obtain DNS server address automatically radio button.
Step7 Click OK to save the settings.
4.2 Logging In to the DSL Router
To log in to the DSL router, do as follows:
Step1 Open a Web browser on your computer.
Step2 Enter http://192.168.1.1 (the default IP address of the DSL router) in the
address bar. The login page appears.
Step3 Enter the user name and the password. The default username and
password of the super user are admin and gvt12345. The username and
password of the common user are user and user. You need not enter the
username and the password again if you select the option Remember
my password. It is recommended to change these default values after
logging in to the DSL router for the first time.
Step4 Click OK to log in to the Web page. Otherwise, please click Cancel to exit
the login page.

After logging in to the DSL router as a super user, you can query, configure, and
modify all the settings, and diagnose the system.
