ADSL X6 Quick Start
If you selected PPPoA or PPPoE
, enter your ADSL
Username
and
Password
in the appropriate boxes.
This information should have been given to you by
your Internet service provider. (Your
Username
is
typically your email address or the characters
preceding the @ sign in your email address. This is
NOT the same login you that you used earlier to open
the
Zoom Configuration Manager
.)
If you selected 1483 Bridged or 1483 Routed
, you
have the option of using either dynamic or static IP
addressing. Depending on your situation, select the
appropriate option button:
−
[MOST USERS]
Ensure that
Obtain an IP
address Automatically
is selected if you are
using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (also
known as DHCP or dynamic IP addressing). This
option is selected by default because most Internet
service providers use dynamic IP addressing.
−
Select
Use the following IP Address
if you have
a static IP address that you plan to use with the
X6. Then, in the boxes that appear, enter the
IP
Address
,
Subnet Mask
,
Default Gateway
, and
DNS
that you plan to use. There is typically an
extra charge for a static IP address and you usually
have to make special arrangements with your
Internet service provider to get one.

your wired and/or wireless Internet connections. (If you do
not connect, see the
