Setting up the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable

The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable can be set up in any suitable location in the home or office. 

You do not need any special wiring. However you should comply with the following 

guidelines:

u

Operate the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable only indoors within a temperature range of 

+5 to +40 °C. Do not position the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable near a heat source. Do not 

cover the ventilation slots. High temperatures will reduce the transmitter range.

u

A mains socket for 220/230V~ and a connection socket for the DSL modem, cable 

modem or LAN must be available where you set up the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable.

u

Do not site the router in the immediate vicinity of stereo equipment, TV sets or 

microwave ovens as this may cause interference.

u

Position the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable so that it is as near to the centre of your wireless 

network as possible. The general rule is: The higher you place the antenna, the bet-

ter the performance. Make sure that where you position the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable 

has optimum reception throughout the house or office.

u

Position the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable on a non-slip surface.
The router feet do not normally leave any traces on the surface they are on. How-

ever, some furniture surfaces may contain substances that attack and soften the 

router's plastic feet. Then the feet may well mark the furniture surface.

u

Position the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable so that it cannot fall down and damage the 

antenna.

u

Lay the cables so that nobody can trip over them. You should not cover the cables 

with anything.

u

Protect the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable from moisture.

Installing the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable  

Before you start connecting PC's to your Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable make sure that

u

a wired or wireless 

Network adapter

 is connected to the PC. Please read the operat-

ing instructions that came with the adapter. The latest PC's and Notebooks have 

wired adapters built in at the factory.

u

ConnectionPoint

 has been entered as 

SSID

 on the network adapter.

!

u

Only use the router with the mains adapter (12V DC 1A) that is sup-

plied.

u

Do not plug any phone jack connectors into the router WAN and LAN 

sockets.

u

Use standard network cables for all connections (CAT-5) for the WAN 

and LAN connections.

u

An Ethernet cable must not be longer than 100 metres.
