Connecting to the DSL or VDSL line
If you have a DSL or VDSL line without a connection to the
landline telephone network (also known as IP-based or direct
access), then connect the FRITZ!Box as follows:
1. Connect the longer end of the DSL cable to the socket on
the FRITZ!Box labeled“DSL/TEL”.
2. Connect the short, gray end of the cable to the appropri-
ate socket on the DSL or VDSL line. The black branch of
the cable remains free.
If the plug on the gray end of the cable does not fit into
the socket of your DSL or VDSL line, insert it into the gray
DSL adapter included in the package. Then insert the
DSL adapter into the DSL or VDSL line.
The “Power / DSL” LED begins flashing and then lights con-
stantly. The FRITZ!Box is now ready for Internet connections
over DSL.
If the “Power / DSL” continues flashing, read DSL Connection
Not Established on page 160 .
Connecting to the Cable Junction
With an additional cable modem you can also use your
FRITZ!Box 7490 on a cable connection. Use a network cable.
1. Connect the free end of the network cable to the LAN
(Ethernet) port on the cable modem.
2. Connect the other end of the network cable to the socket
on the FRITZ!Box labeled “LAN 1”.
