3.2.2 Connecting Multiple PCs to an Ethernet LAN

Refer to the following procedures to setup the VC-201 to an 
Ethernet LAN.

1. Set  the  VC-201  to  be  CO  mode  or  CPE  mode  from  the 

DIP switch at the rear panel.

2. Power on the VC-201 by connecting its power source.

3. Power LED will illuminate.

4. Connect  VDSL  line  from  another  VDSL  device  to  VDSL 

port of the VC-201.

5. LNK LED will illuminate.

6. Connect telephone to the PHONE port.

7. Connect  Ethernet  port  to  Ethernet  Switch  (or  Broadband 

Router) via regular Cat. 5 cable.
