Before You Start
Please read and make sure you understand all the prerequisites for proper installation of your new Router. Have
all the necessary information and equipment on hand before beginning the installation.
Installation Overview
The procedure to install the Router can be described in general terms in the following steps:
1. Gather information and equipment needed to install the device. Before you begin the actual installation
make sure you have all the necessary information and equipment.
2. Install the hardware, that is, connect the cables (Ethernet and telephone) to the device and connect the
power adapter.
3. Check the IP settings on your computer and change them if necessary so the computer can access the
web-based software built into the Router.
4. Use the web-based management software to configure the device to suit the requirements of your ADSL
account.
Installation Requirements
In order to establish a connection to the Internet it will be necessary to provide information to the Router that
will be stored in its memory. For some users, only their account information (Username and Password) is
required. For others, various parameters that control and define the Internet connection will be required. You can
print out the two pages below and use the tables to list this information. This way you have a hard copy of all the
information needed to setup the Router. If it is necessary to reconfigure the device, all the necessary information
can be easily accessed. Be sure to keep this information safe and private.
Low Pass Filters
Since ADSL and telephone services share the same copper wiring to carry their respective signals, a filtering
mechanism may be necessary to avoid mutual interference. A low pass filter device can be installed for each
telephone that shares the line with the ADSL line. These filters are easy to install passive devices that connect to
the ADSL device and/or telephone using standard telephone cable. Ask your service provider for more
information about the use of low pass filters with your installation.
Operating Systems
The DSL-562T uses an HTML-based web interface for setup and management. The web configuration manager
may be accessed using any operating system capable of running web browser software, including Windows 98
SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
