1 Overview
The ADN-4100 supports multiple line modes. It provides four 10/100Base-TX
Ethernet interfaces at the user end. The device provides high speed ADSL
broadband connection to the Internet or Intranet for high-end users, such as net
cafes and office users. It provides high performance access to the Internet,
downstream up to 24 Mbps and upstream up to 1 Mbps.
The device supports WLAN access. It can connect to the Internet through a
WLAN AP or WLAN device. It complies with IEEE 802.11, 802.11b/g/n
specifications, WEP, WPA, and WPA2 security specifications.
1.1 Safety Precautions
Refer to the following instructions to prevent the device from risks and damage
caused by fire or electric power:
Use volume labels to mark the type of power.
Use the power adapter 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 the power cords 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 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 it is over damp or watery. Do
not spill any fluid on this device.
Do not connect this device to any PCs or electronic products, unless our
customer engineer or your broadband provider instructs you to do this,
because any wrong connection may cause power or fire risk.
Do not place the device on an unstable surface or support.

2 Hardware Installation
Step 1 Connect the LINE interface of the device and the Modem interface of
the splitter with a telephone cable. Connect the phone set to the
Phone interface of the splitter through a telephone cable. Connect the
input cable to the Line interface of the splitter.
The splitter has three interfaces:
Line: Connect to a wall phone interface (RJ-11 jack).
Modem: Connect to the LINE interface of the device.
Phone: Connect to a telephone set.
Step 2 Connect the LAN interface of the device to the network card of the PC
through an Ethernet cable (MDI/MDIX).
Note:
Use the twisted-pair cable to connect the hub or switch.
Step 3 Insert one end of the power adapter to the wall outlet and connect the
other end to the POWER interface of the device.
Connection 1: Figure 3 shows the connection of the device, PC, splitter, and
telephone sets, when no telephone set is placed before the splitter. This type of
connection is recommended.

Figure 3 Connection diagram (without a telephone set before the splitter)
Connection 2: Figure 4 shows the connection of the device, PC, splitter, and
telephone sets, when a telephone set is placed before the splitter.
As illustrated in the following figure, the splitter is installed close to the device:
Figure 4 Connection diagram (with a telephone set before the splitter)
Note:
When connection 2 is used, the filter must be installed close to the telephone
cable. See Figure 4. Do not use a splitter to replace the filter.
Installing a telephone directly before the splitter may lead to failure of connection
between the device and the central office, failure of Internet access, or slow
connection speed. If you need to add a telephone set before the splitter, you must
add a microfilter before the telephone set. Do not connect several telephones
before the splitter or connect several telephones with the microfilter.

3.2.1 Wizard
Wizard helps you to fast and accurately configure Internet connection and other
important parameters. The following sections describe these various
configuration parameters.
When subscribing to a broadband service, be aware of the Internect connection
mode. The physical WAN device can be Ethernet, DSL, or both. Technical
information about properties of Internet connection is provided by your Internet
service provider (ISP). For example, your ISP should inform you whether you are
connected to the Internet using a static or dynamic IP address, and the protocol,
such as PPPoA or PPPoE, that you use to communicate on the Internet.
Step 1 Choose Setup > Wizard. The page as shown in the following figure
appears:
Step 2 Click Setup Wizard. The page as shown in the following figure
appears:

There are four steps to configure the device. Click Next to continue.
Step 3 Set the time and date. Then, click Next.
Step 4 Configure the Internet connection.
Select the protocol and the encapsulation mode. Set the VPI and the
VCI.
If the Protocol is set to PPPoE or PPPoA, the page as shown in the
following figure appears:
11

You need to enter the user name and password for PPPoE or PPPoA
dialup.
If the Protocol is set to Dynamic IP, the page as shown in the
following figure appears:
12

If the Protocol is set to Static IP, the page as shown in the following
figure appears:
You need to enter the information of the IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway.
If the Protocol is set to Bridge, the page as shown in the following
figure appears:
