11 Connection to telephone line
This section describes how to connect the modem to the incoming telephone line.
For a schematic overview, please refer to figure 9.
1.
From the incoming telephone line to the splitter/filter (in the event you want to
keep your telephone working).
2.
From the splitter/filter Telephone jack to your telephone.
3.
From the splitter/filter ADSL jack to the ADSL modem. See figure 9.
Note:
Your ADSL modem will also work even when there is no splitter/filter
placed on the incoming line. In that case, it will no longer be possible
to use the telephone.
12 Establish connection to the Internet
Every configuration is somewhat different in the way the connection to the Internet is
established. In this section, each of the various ways is described.
12.1
Internet via PPPoA/PPPoE (NDISWAN /
RFC2364/RFC2516)
When your Internet connection has to be made using NDISWAN, you need to setup
a dial-up connection. This requires correctly configured dial-up networking.
To send and receive e-mail messages, you also need to have a connection to your
mail service provider. In most cases, these settings are the same as those for your
Internet connection. If you have multiple e-mail accounts, then you can easily
download the mail for the e-mail account involved. In order to send messages, you
need to be logged-in to your mail service Provider. Consult the settings
recommended by your provider.
