DSL-302G ADSL Modem User’s Guide
Configuring the Modem for a Bridged or an IPoA Connection
Bridge Mode
When your DSL-302G ADSL modem operates in Bridge mode (EoA), it only handles the transfer of data
between your ADSL service provider and your computer. Your computer will need to have software installed
that will allow it to “accept” the ADSL connection, and your ADSL service provider will need to provide you
with this software, along with instructions about how to install the software and configure your computer for the
ADSL connection.
IPoA Mode
If your ADSL service provider is using the Internet Protocol over ATM (IPoA), you will need to configure your
DSL-302G modem to use this protocol. The configuration steps are nearly the same as the steps required to
configure the modem for Bridge mode. Follow the steps below, and watch for the
IPoA
heading.
