X5v User’s Guide
Overview
The X5v is an ADSL modem, a gateway/router, and a VoIP
telephone adapter, all contained in one device. The ADSL modem
gives you a connection to the Internet through your Internet
service provider. The gateway/router provides an interface
between the Internet and your own local network. It also includes
an advanced firewall, which allows you to control Internet access
from your local network, and which protects your local network
from unwanted Internet traffic. The VoIP telephone adapter lets
you make telephone calls over the Internet, using a normal
telephone that you plug into the X5v.
Important! Before You Begin
Before installing your X5V, you must have DSL service
enabled on your telephone line. To do this, you need to sign
up with a DSL service provider.
This User Guide contains installation instructions and explains how
to configure the X5v for some popular applications. Most users
should go now to the next chapter, Installation Instructions.
Note: If you are an Internet service provider, a VoIP service provider, or a system
administrator, additional information is available in the X5v Technical Reference
Manual at www.zoom.com
The Technical Reference manual includes information such as voice parameters,
dialing plan configurations, DNS, and advanced DSL settings.

Installation Instructions
This chapter covers the basic instructions needed to install your
X5v, connect to the Internet, and place VoIP calls. If you
purchased an X5v Model 5565 and used its Quick Start for
Windows, please go to Chapter 2. Otherwise please continue
below.
What’s in the Package
Ethernet Cable
Power Cube
USB Cable
Software CD-ROM
Phone Cord
The CD contains the installation software, documentation,
warranty, and Customer Support information.

X5v User’s Guide
If anything is missing or damaged, contact Zoom Customer
Support or your retailer or distributor.
In addition, you may have:
•Phone-jack adapter to adapt the RJ-11 phone cord to a
different phone jack (certain units only)
•DSL line filter(s) (certain units only).
What You Will Need
•A Macintosh, Linux, or Windows computer with an
Ethernet port, a Windows computer with a USB port, or a
network device like a wireless access point or hub.
•An ADSL-enabled telephone wall jack to plug the X5v unit
into.
•A telephone to plug into the X5v if you plan to use VoIP.
Installing the X5v involves several steps: Installing the Software,
Installing the Hardware, Configuring Internet Explorer,
Configuring ADSL, and Setting Up VoIP Service.
1.1 Installing the Software
Installing the software is only required for people connecting a
Windows computer directly to the X5v. All others should skip to
Step 1.2 below.
Windows 98/98SE, Me, 2000, and XP Users:
If your computer has an available Ethernet jack, we
recommend that you use that instead of the USB jack to
simplify installation.
If you need to use the X5v’s USB jack, you must remove any
previously installed USB modem drivers on your computer
before installing this software. To do this from your Windows
desktop, click the Start button, point to Settings, and select
Control Panel. In Control Panel, double-click Add/Remove
Programs, on the Install/Uninstall tab, select your old USB
modem from the list, and click Remove. Now continue below.

3When the process is complete, you will be prompted to click
Finish and then shut down your computer so you can
connect the hardware. After shutting down, be sure to remove
the CD from your computer.
1.2 Installing the Hardware
Important! Unplug or turn off the power to your
computer before proceeding. Remember, you must
install the X5v software before installing the hardware.
Note: If you are replacing an older DSL modem with a
X5v, you need to remove the old hardware now.

aPlug your phone into the PHONE jack.
Tip: If you have a cordless phone with one or more
handsets, plug the base station into the X5v’s PHONE
jack.
Note: If RJ-11 phone jacks are not used in your country,
you will need a phone adapter. Plug the adapter into the
X5v’s PHONE jack and plug your phone into the other
end.
b
bb
bPlug one end of the X5v’s phone cord into the X5v’s
ADSL jack and the other end into the wall telephone jack
(the jack on the wall where you would normally plug in a
standard phone). This jack must be a jack that has been
connected to ADSL service.

cIf you are connecting the X5v directly to a computer:
If possible, use your computer’s Ethernet port: Plug one
end of the included Ethernet cable into one of the X5v’s
LAN jacks (1, 2, 3, or 4) and plug the other end into the
computer’s Ethernet port. You can plug in one computer
per LAN jack.
If your computer doesn’t have an available Ethernet port,
you can use a Windows computer’s USB port: Plug one
end of the USB cable into the X5v’s USB jack and the
other end into the computer’s USB port.
Note: You can connect multiple computers to the X5v using
a combination of ports and share Internet access.
d
dd
dIf you are connecting the X5v directly to a hub,
switch, wireless access point, or other network
device:
You can probably use the X5v’s straight-through
Ethernet cable to connect the X5v’s LAN jack to the
network device’s Ethernet port, which is typically called
an Uplink or Expansion port.
The X5v’s cable may not work for some access points or
other devices. In that case, you should purchase a
Crossover Ethernet cable.
2
22
2Plug the included power cube into a power outlet and then
into the X5v’s power (PWR) jack.
IMPORTANT:
Use only the power cube shipped with the X5v.
Other power cubes may damage your hardware.
The front panel LINK light should blink during this step.
When this physical connection step is complete, the LINK
light should change from blinking to solid. If it doesn’t, refer
to page 77.

3Turn the computer on.
If you are using the USB option, a Found New Hardware
box should display, showing the progress of the installation.
Follow the prompts.
Windows XP users: You may see Hardware Installation
disclaimer boxes regarding Windows logo testing. You can
safely disregard these messages and click Continue Anyway.

Chapter 1: Installation Instructions 9
Windows 2000 users: You may see a Digital Signature Not
Found dialog box. You can safely disregard this message and
click Yes.
Windows 98/Me users: Restart your computer if you are
prompted to do so.

4Phone filters are not absolutely required, but we HIGHLY
RECOMMEND that you install a filter on EVERY
phone that is sharing the DSL phone line. (Do not plug a
filter between the phone wall jack and the X5v.) Phone filters
block the DSL frequencies so that someone making a normal
phone call won’t hear noise on the line. They also keep phone
conversations from interfering with DSL performance.
The X5v phone jack has a filter built-in, so there is no need
for a filter on that phone.
You may have received DSL phone filters with your X5v. If
you did not, or need more filters, they are available at most
retail stores that carry consumer electronics.
For each additional phone, plug the phone’s cord into the
filter’s PHONE end and plug the filter’s LINE end into the
wall.
1.3 Configuring Internet Explorer
Macintosh and Linux users: Your Web browser is set up
automatically, so you can skip this section. Turn to page 74 to
make sure that your computer’s TCP/IP settings are configured
correctly.
Windows users: Your software that you use to make an Internet
connection must be set for a network connection, not a dial-up
connection. The instructions below are for Internet Explorer, the
most popular Web browser. If you are using Netscape Navigator
or another browser, set it up now to use a network connection
(this might be called a “Local Area Network” or “broadband”
connection).
If you use Internet Explorer, you need Version 5 or later. Most
people have the right version. If you don’t, we suggest you get a
free upgrade. If you want to check your version number, open
Internet Explorer, select Help, then About Internet Explorer.

1.5 Setting up VoIP Service
If you purchased a X5v Model 5565, your unit has been set up for
VoIP service, so continue at Section 1.6 Calling Tips below. If you
purchased another Model X5v, please go to Chapter 2 on page 32.
1.6 Calling Tips
You can use phones plugged into the X5v to:
1) Make or receive a VoIP call. Your ADSL phone line will
remain open for calls, so using VoIP gives you many of the
benefits of having a second phone line.
•Make a VoIP call to someone who is using the same VoIP
service: Pick up the telephone that you plugged into the X5v.
Dial #and wait for the dial tone, and then dial the VoIP
phone number you want to call. Note that this number is not
the same as a phone number reached through the traditional
public phone network. Your service provider’s web site should
include a directory of VoIP phone numbers.
•Make VoIP calls to someone who is using a different
VoIP service: You must begin your call by dialing a code for
that person’s VoIP service. You will have to ask the person for
the code, or check their service provider’s web site for
directions.
•Receive incoming VoIP calls: When VoIP users call into
your VoIP number, you will hear a distinctive ring to alert you
that you are receiving a VoIP call.
•Call people who don’t have VoIP: You may use VoIP to call
any phone that can be called through the traditional phone
network. Your service provider may offer this as an additional
feature. Check with your service provider.
2) Make or receive “conventional” calls: Pick up the telephone
and dial as you normally would. As long as you don’t dial #to

Chapter 1: Installation Instructions 17
indicate that you are dialing a VoIP call, your calls will be routed
and billed as if you didn’t have VoIP, through your regular
telephone service.
Note: In the event of a power failure, the X5v routes all calls as
conventional calls.
Additional Features
Additional FeaturesAdditional Features
Additional Features
Distinctive Ring and Dial Tone: The X5v’s ring and dial tone
sound different from your traditional phone service. This means
that you can easily tell by the ring that you are receiving a VoIP
call. Perhaps more important, when you dial #to make a VoIP call,
you will hear a different dial tone than you hear on the public
phone network so that you can be sure you are making a VoIP call.
Speed dialing: You may program your phone to speed-dial VoIP
numbers. Just be sure to remember to start the VoIP numbers with
#.
Redial: You may redial a VoIP number just as you would redial
any other number, using a redial feature on your handset.
Hook Flash: If you receive a second VoIP call while already
engaged in a VoIP call, you will hear a call waiting tone.
Momentarily press the hook button on your phone to talk to the
second caller, and press it again to go back to your first
conversation. After you have completed a VoIP call, you can press
the hook button to get a fresh VoIP dial tone and make another
VoIP call without dialing #
Note that redial or speed dialing will not work in this case,
however. You must hang up for at least one second if you need to
make a conventional phone call.
VoIP only Mode: If you want to make only VoIP calls, you can
set the X5v to VoIP only Mode. All calls that you make from the
phone attached to the X5v will be VoIP calls so you do not have to
dial # to make a call. Note: If you have unbundled DSL (DSL
without PSTN), you must use VoIP only Mode. For additional
information about this feature and how to use it, see Voice over
IP options on page 36.
VoIP only Mode with PSTN: If you want to make only VoIP
calls, but still receive PSTN calls from the phone plugged into the

18 ADSL X5v User’s Guide
X5v, you must switch the X5v to VoIP-only Mode and set it to
receive PSTN calls. All calls that you dial from the phone attached
to the X5v will be VoIP calls so you do not need to dial #first. For
additional information about this feature and how to use it, see
Voice over IP options on page 36.
1.7 Playing Online Games Using
Your X5v
Setting up the X5v for online gaming depends on what you
want to do:
•If you have Xbox Live, go to page 27.
•If you have PlayStation 2, go to page 27.
•If you have another online game, continue below.
Do I Need To Do Anything?
There are only two cases where you need to set up your X5v
for online gaming.
—If you are playing a “peer-to-peer” or “head-to-head” game
over the Internet, you always have to set up the X5v unless
you linked up to your partner by going to a web site. A peer-
to-peer game is a game where two players are competing
directly against one another. Popular peer-to-peer games
include Age of Empires, Command and Conquer, Dark Reign
2, and Unreal Tournament. If you are unsure whether your
game is a peer-to-peer game check the game instructions.
—If you want to play a multiplayer game and you want to
host the game. Popular multiplayer games include Half Life,
Diablo II, Delta Force, Hexen II, Myth, Quake II, and
Warcraft II, III.
In both these cases you will need to open one or more ports
in the X5v’s built-in firewall as described below, so that the
firewall doesn’t block the other players. The two ways to
accomplish this are to Set up a Virtual Server if you only need to
open a few ports, or to Set up a DMZ, which opens all the X5v’s
ports.

Chapter 1: Installation Instructions 19
Important! If your computer already has firewall software
installed: If you have third-party firewall software installed on
your computer, such as the Windows XP firewall, you may need
to deactivate it before opening ports by setting up a virtual server
or a DMZ. If you don’t, your computer may block the ports you
are trying to open.

Gaming and Multiplayer Game
Hosting (Setting Up a Virtual Server)

1Find out which ports need to be opened for gaming.
Most peer-to-peer and multiplayer game manuals will tell you
exactly which port or ports need to be opened. If yours didn’t, you
may be able to look up the information at:
www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/app_port_list.htm
If you have found your games port settings, we recommend that
you print them out, write them down now, or keep the game
manual handy.
Different games require different numbers of ports to be open.
This can be a single port, or it can be a hundred ports or more.
Each required port needs to be set individually, so the more
ports that your game requires, the more time it will take to do
the configuration. Some games even use “dynamic” ports,
meaning that the ports used by the game are constantly changing,
so you can’t set the ports.
There is a setting that opens all your ports for gaming, called a
DMZ. If you can’t find the port settings in your game manual or
on the web site shown above, or if you have to open more than 20
ports (which is the maximum allowable), or if your game
documentation says that the game uses dynamic ports, or if you
don’t want to spend the time to open multiple ports, refer to the
DMZ instructions on page 47.
WARNING:
Every time you open an additional port, it decreases the
effectiveness of your firewall, so the less ports you open the better.

2Choose an IP address for Gaming.
Click on the Zoom X5v icon on your desktop (or type 10.0.02 in
your Web browser just the way you would normally type a web
address) to get to the X5v’s Main Page. Click the Advanced
Setup icon, then click LAN Settings. There you will see the
starting and ending range of the X5v’s dynamic (DHCP) LAN IP
addresses. You need to choose an IP Address that is outside this
range. Normally you should pick the next higher number. For
example, if the range shown is 10.0.0.4 to 10.0.0.15, your Host IP
Address should be the next IP address after 10.0.0.15, which would
be 10.0.0.16. Unless you have changed the X5v’s IP address
settings, which is very unlikely, just use the number 10.0.0.16. Write
down the number you choose for reference if you are not using
10.0.0.16. The rest of the instructions will assume that you are
using 10.0.0.16.
