Getting started

To set up your internet connection, you’ll initially need to use the 
Ethernet cable. Due to the length of the DSL cable, your computer 
needs to be close to the jack point.

NOTE: Once you’ve established a connection using the cable, you’ll be 
able to set up a wireless (WiFi) connection. With wireless you’ll be able 
to unplug the cable and connect to the internet anywhere in range of 
your WiFi Network. 
 
Important: If you are running an alternative DCHP server on your 
network, please contact your IT specialist before progressing.  
DHCP is enabled by default on the Thomson TG797 and this will 
conflict with your existing DHCP server.

Connecting filters

You need to connect a filter wherever you have a phone line in use, 
including phones, faxes or digital TV decoders. This will remove 
interference on your phone lines and improve your broadband service.

 If you have more than 5 jackpoints, a PABX system or monitored 
security or medical alarm connected to the phone, a technician will 
need to install a splitter. Call us on 0800 BUSINESS to arrange this.
