Overview
The P-2612HNU-Fx is an ADSL Integrated Access Device (IAD) which
combines high-speed ADSL Internet access, a built-in switch, a firewall
and high-speed wireless networking capability. It also has a USB 2.0 port
for sharing files via a USB compatible storage device and two phone
ports for making calls over the Internet (Voice over IP or VoIP). The P-
2612HNU-Fx can also function as a print server.
Requirements
Make sure you have the following things before you start.
• Internet access - account information provided by your ISP, such as
user name, password, and so on.
• VoIP account - You need the account information provided by your
VoIP service provider (the company that lets you make phone calls
over the Internet).

4
• Internet Explorer 6.0 or later or Netscape Navigator 7.0 or later, with
JavaScript enabled.
See the User’s Guide on the CD for all configuration details including
setting up a shared printer.
Hardware Connections
Remove the P-2612HNU-Fx’s plastic cover before using it.

1. Do one of the following for your Internet connection:
a. DSL: Use a telephone wire to connect this port to a telephone jack
(or the DSL or MODEM jack on a splitter, if you have one).
b. WAN: If you have a DSL router or modem already in your network
or you want to use a cable modem, push the DSL/WAN switch to
the WAN side and use an Ethernet cable to connect this port to an
Ethernet jack with Internet access.
2. ETHERNET: Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to one of
these ports for initial configuration and/or Internet access.
3. USB 2.0: Connect a USB (version 2.0 or lower) memory stick or a
USB hard drive for file sharing. The P-2612HNU-Fx automatically
detects the USB device. Alternatively, use a USB cable (not
provided) to connect a USB (version 2.0 or lower) printer to this
port.
4. PHONE: Use a telephone cable (and any telephone adaptor provided
with your P-2612HNU-Fx) to connect a telephone to the PHONE 1 or
PHONE 2 port. If you only have one telephone, you should use port 1.
5. Use the power adaptor provided with your P-2612HNU-Fx to connect
an appropriate power source to this socket.
6. Push the power button to the on position.
Look at the LEDs (lights) on the top panel of the P-2612HNU-Fx.

• The POWER light blinks during start-up and is green once the P-
2612HNU-Fx is ready.
• An ETHERNET light turns on if the corresponding ETHERNET port
is properly connected. An Ethernet port’s light blinks when the P-
2612HNU-Fx is sending or receiving data through it.
• The WLAN light stays green when the wireless LAN is ready. It
blinks when the P-2612HNU-Fx is sending/receiving data through
the wireless LAN.
• The DSL light stays on if a physical DSL connection exists and
blinks when transmitting data.
The WAN light stays on if this port is properly connected and blinks
when transmitting data.
The INTERNET light is green when Internet access is available.
• The PHONE lights stay on when your SIP account is registered and
they blink if the receiver is off the hook.
• The USB light turns on when there is a USB device (printer or
memory stick) connected to the P-2612HNU-Fx and blinks when
transmitting data.
 If no lights are on, check your connections. Make sure that
you have the power adaptor connected to the P-2612HNU-
Fx and plugged in to an appropriate power source. Make
sure the power source is turned on. Turn the P-2612HNU-Fx
off, wait for a few seconds and turn it back on. If the LEDs
are still off, contact your local vendor.

Set Up a Wireless Network
To set up a wireless network you need at least one wireless network
card/adapter.
• If you have a desktop computer, use either a wireless USB adapter
or a wireless PCI adapter.
• If you have a laptop, use either a wireless USB adapter or a
wireless CardBus card. These are built into many laptops.
Setting Up a Wireless Network with WPS
If your wireless devices display the WPS logo, you
can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to add
wireless devices to your wireless network. If your
wireless devices do not display the WPS logo, go to
Set Up a Wireless Network Manually on page 11 to manually set up a
wireless network.
The P-2612HNU-Fx supports two WPS methods for creating a secure
connection.

• PIN Configuration - create a secure wireless network by entering
your wireless device’s PIN (Personal Identification Number) into the

you cannot locate the WPS button. It doesn’t matter which button is
pressed first. You must press the second button within two minutes of
pressing the first one.
4. The P-2612HNU-Fx and the wireless device establish a secure
connection. This can take up to two minutes.
