Additional Software
It may be necessary to install software on your computer that enables the computer to access the Internet. Additional software must be installed if
you are using the device as a simple bridge. For a bridged connection, the information needed to make and maintain the Internet connection is
stored on another computer or gateway device, not in the Router itself.
If your ADSL service is delivered through a PPPoE or PPPoA connection, the information needed to establish and maintain the Internet connection
can be stored in the Router. In this case, it is not necessary to install software on your computer. It may however be necessary to change some
settings in the device, including account information used to identify and verify the connection.
All connections to the Internet require a unique global IP address. For bridged connections, the global IP settings must reside in a TCP/IP enabled
device on the LAN side of the bridge, such as a PC, a server, a gateway device, such as a router, or similar firewall hardware. The IP address can
be assigned in a number of ways. Your network service provider will give you instructions about any additional connection software or NIC
configuration that may be required.
Note
If you plan to use the DSL-526B’s USB port to connect to your
computer, do not connect the USB cable to the Router until you
have finished all of the steps to install the USB driver, and your
computer has restarted.
