1 Safety Precautions
Take the following instructions to prevent the device from risks and damage caused
by fire or electric power.
Use the type of power marked in the volume label.
Use the power adapter in the product package.
Pay attention to the power load of the outlet or prolonged lines. An
overburden power outlet or damaged lines or plugs may cause electric
shock or fire accidents. Check the power cords regularly. If you find any
damage, replace it at once.
Proper space left for heat dissipation is necessary to avoid damage caused
by overheating to the device. The long and thin 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 heat source or under a high temperature
occurs. Keep the device away from direct sunshine.
Do not put this device close to an overdamp or watery place. Do not spill
fluid on this device.
Do not connect this device to a PC or electronic product unless instructed
by our customer engineer or your broadband provider. Wrong connection
may cause power or fire risk.
Do not place this device on an unstable surface or support.

2 Overview
The VB204W VDSL Wi-Fi Router integrates 802.11n Wireless, LAN and USB
service into one unit. It is designed to provide a simple and cost-effective xDSL
Internet connection for a private Ethernet and 802.11g/802.11b/802.11n wireless
network. The Router combines a high-speed xDSL Internet connection, IP routing
for the LAN, and wireless connectivity in one package.
The Router is easy to install and use. The Router connects to an Ethernet LAN or
computers via standard Ethernet ports. The xDSL 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 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.

3.2 Hardware Installation
Step 1 Connect the DSL port of the device to the socket installed by Chorus
Step 2 Connect a LAN port of the device to the network card of the PC through
an Ethernet cable.
Note:If connecting to ADSL service, make sure ADSL Filters are used.
Step 3 Plug one end of the power adapter to the wall outlet and the other end
to the Power port of the device.
Installing a telephone without using either a Splitter or filter will lead to failure of
xDSL connection, or failure of Internet access, or slow connection speed. If you
really need to add a telephone set, you must add a microfilter or Central Splitter.

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. The VB204W 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.
Figure 3 PC Network Configuration

VB204W User Manual

TCP/IP configuration steps for Windows XP are as follows:
Step 1 Choose Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
Step 1 Right-click the Ethernet connection icon and choose Properties.
Step 2 On the General tab, select the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) component
and click Properties. The Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window
appears.
Step 3 Select the Obtain an IP address automatically radio button.
Step 4 Select the Obtain DNS server address automatically radio button.
Step 5 Click OK to save the settings.
4.2 Logging in to the DSL Router
To log in to the DSL router, do as follows.
Step 1 Open a Web browser on your computer.
Step 2 Enter http://192.168.1.1 (default IP address of the DSL router) in the
address bar. The login page appears.
Step 3 Enter the user name and the password. The default username and
password are admin and admin. 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.
Step 4 Click OK to log in to the Web page. Otherwise, please click Cancel to
exit the login page.

important parameters. The following sections describe configuration parameters.
When subscribing to a broadband service, you should be aware of the method, by
which you areconnected tothe Internet. Your physicalWANdevice can beEthernet,
DSL or both. Technical information about the properties of your Internet connection
is provided by your Internet service provider (ISP). For example, your ISP should
inform you that you are connected to the Internet using a static or dynamic IP
address, or the protocol used for communication over the Internet, such as PPPoA
or PPPoE,.
Choose Setup > Wizard. The page shown in the following figure appears.
