ADSL modem
Some models have an Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) modem
for high-speed communication. To use an ADSL modem, you must have the
correct telephone wiring in your home or office and you must be enrolled
with an ADSL service provider.
Depending on how your home or office is wired, the ADSL modem uses
either wires 2 and 5 or wires 3 and 4 of the telephone-line wall connector.
Refer to the label on the back of the ADSL modem and set the switch on the
back of the ADSL modem to match the wiring scheme. If you do not know
which wiring scheme to use, contact your ADSL service provider.
Home PNA Network card with integrated modem
Some models have a Home Phoneline Network Alliance (PNA) Network card
with an integrated V.90 modem. In addition to its modem function, this card
allows you to use the telephone wiring in your home for peer-to-peer
networking. To use the Home PNA Network card, you must install the Intel

AnyPoint

software from the Software Selections CD. Each computer on the
home PNA network must have a home PNA network card and the
associated software installed.
For information about using the PNA Network
card or the AnyPoint software, refer to the AnyPoint documentation (provided
with PNA models only).
Connect each computer on a home PNA network directly to a telephone-line
wall connector. If you have more computers than telephone-line wall
connectors in a room, use a telephone splitter at the wall connector.
Actual network transfer speeds depend on many factors, such as home
wiring configuration, and are often less than the maximum possible.
Some Internet Service Provider (ISP) accounts do not allow or charge extra
for Internet sharing. Your ISP access agreement might require you to have
more than one account. Check your ISP access agreement for more
information.
