1. If you have more than one computer, select the one you want to 

use to configure the BT Inspiration Adv. Once the 
BT Inspiration Adv is up and running, you can connect 
your other computers. See Appendix B for details.

2. Verify that your computer has the necessary software and 

hardware to connect with the BT Inspiration Adv.

3. Turn your computer off.

4. The BT Inspiration Adv is connected to your ISDN line via 

the BT Inspiration CCU. Plug the cable coming from the                
BT Inspiration CCU into the grey ISDN port on the back of the 
BT Inspiration Adv.

5. Connect your computer to the BT Inspiration Adv using 

the supplied blue Ethernet cable. Plug one end of the cable into 
the Ethernet port on your computer and plug the other end into an 
Ethernet port on the BT Inspiration Adv. It does not 
matter which port you use. All the Ethernet ports are the same.

6. Connect the power supply to the POWER jack on the 

BT Inspiration Adv and plug it into a power outlet.

7. Turn on your computer.

8. Go to Section 4 to install the Modem Monitor software.

To connect with the BT Inspiration Adv, 
a computer must have:

• A 10BASE-T Ethernet network interface card, properly 

installed. Consult the documentation that came with your 
card for instructions on how to do this.

• The card must be configured to use the TCP/IP protocol and 

the TCP/IP protocol must be set to use its default values. 
Specifically, it must be a DHCP client (obtain IP address 
automatically) and not be configured to use a DNS server.

To adjust these settings in Windows 95/98, use the Network 
program in Control Panel. If you do not know how to check 
these settings, the Modem Monitor program that is part of 
the BT Inspiration Adv package will verify these 
settings for you. Modem Monitor is installed in Section 4.

To configure the BT Inspiration Adv, 
a computer must have:

• Web browser (Netscape 3.01 or later, or Internet Explorer 4 

or later). Internet Explorer is included on the BT Inspiration 
Adv CD for computers running Windows 95/98/
NT4. (NT 4 requires Service Pack 3 or higher. Both are 
available on the BT Inspiration Adv CD.)

Note: 

Make sure your browser is not configured to use a 

Proxy Server or a dial-up connection.
