babyBOX Configuration (Basic Setup)
Since you already have a High Speed connection to the Internet, this means that you have
everything you need. If you already have an existing Local Area Network (LAN) please
refer to the Advanced Setup (babyBOX & Router) portion of this document.
1)
Turn off the power to the DSL modem. Disconnect the ethernet cable that
runs between the modem and the computer. Unpack the babyBOX and
preserve the original packaging in case you need to return the babyBOX to
Nucleus for whatever reason. Now proceed as shown below.
2)
Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet jack (10Base-T) of the DSL
modem to the WAN jack of the babyBOX.
*Note*
If you have a Linksys
ME3 modem be sure to use the yellow cable that came with the modem for
this connection as it is a special cable (crossover cable) that is required for
proper operation.
3)
Connect a second Ethernet cable from the ENET jack of the babyBOX to the
Ethernet jack (also called Network Jack) of the computer.
4)
Connect your telephone set to the PHONE1 jack of the babyBOX.
5)
Power up the DSL modem and wait a few moments for it to boot up. Plug the
AC adapter that came with the babyBOX into a wall socket, or preferably, into
a surge-protected power bar. With the DSL modem now powered and ready,
connect the power cord from the babyBOX power adapter to the PWR socket
of the babyBOX.
Wait at least 2 minutes for the babyBOX to boot and for the VoIP light to
be solid.
