Ethernet ADSL Router P 6
Chapter 1 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of this outstanding Ethernet ADSL Router.
ADSL is a transmission technology used to carry user data over a single twisted-pair line between the
Central Office and the Customer Premises. The downstream data rates can go up to 8 Mbps. The upstream
data rates can go up to 1Mbps. This asymmetric nature lends itself to applications such as Internet access
and video delivery.
This EthernetADSL Router combines an “Always-On” high speed Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line
(ADSL) connection to the Telephone Line, and one 10/100BASE-T Ethernet Switch connection to a host PC
or other Ethernet device to enable the widest array of host connectivity.
This EthernetADSL Router device set is fully compliant withANSI T1.413 Issue 2, ITU G.992.1 and ITU
G.992.2 specification. This rate-adaptive solution is especially designed for Customer Premise Equipment
that supports downstream data rates up to 8 Mbps and upstream data rates up to 1 Mbps.
With minimum setup, you can install and use the router within minutes.

Chapter 3 Setting Up The TCP/IP In Windows
The instruction in this chapter will help you configure your computers to be able to communicate with this
Ethernet ADSL Router.
Computers access the Internet using a protocol called TCP/IP ( Transmission Control Protocol/ Internet
Protocol ). Each computer/notebook on your network must have TCP/IP installed and selected as its
networking protocol. If a Network Interface Card ( NIC ) is already installed in your PC, then TCP/IP is
probably already installed as well.
The following description assumes the Ethernet ADSL Router been set to factory default. ( If not, please
hold the reset button down for 5 seconds ). The default of the EthernetADSL Router’s LAN IP is 10.0.0.2.
Follow the procedures below to set your computer/notebook function as a DHCP Client.
