Integrated Cable Modems/Routers
Some service providers are now providing an integrated modem/router with their service.
As long as the LAN ports on this router are configured to provide DHCP to devices that
are plugged into it, you can simply plug the E6501S into the modem/router and it should
work as the E6501S defaults to using DHCP on its WAN interface. If DHCP is not
enabled on the modem/router’s LAN port, it should be enabled so the E6501S is able to
obtain an IP address. If manual addressing is preferred, see
Chapter 5
for information on
how to configure a static IP address on the E6501S’s WAN port.
Note that the voice quality provided by the E6501S when operating behind a router may
be diminished. It would be better to configure the integrated modem/router to act as a
bridge instead of a router, and let the E6501S act as the first router connected to your
service provider. See your integrated modem/router user manual for help on how to do
this. If you make the integrated modem/router a bridge, you will need to configure your
E6501S for the type of WAN interface that your service provider provides using the
procedures described in
Chapter 5
(e.g. DHCP, Static, PPPoE).
