Configuration Setup
Connection to a VT100-compatible terminal or a PC running terminal emulation is
optional. It is used to configure the router locally, rather than the service provider
configuring the router remotely. Refer to
Connecting to a VT100 Terminal or PC
(Optional)
on page 12 to connect the router to a terminal or PC.
For local configuration, verify the following terminal or PC settings:
Data rate is set to 19.2 Kbps (19200 bps).
Character length is set to 8.
Parity is set to None.
Stop bits is set to 1.
Flow control is set to Off or None.

router displays an initial prompt of

Refer to the
Hotwire DSL Routers User’s Guide for configuration settings and command
line entries.
Increasing the Number of End-User Systems
The router can support differing numbers of end-user systems, depending upon the
functions that are enabled and traffic loading. Typical configurations provide support for
up to 32, 64, or 256 hosts (end-user systems).
An Ethernet crossover cable is used when a single PC is connected to the router. To
increase the number of PCs, connect all PCs to an Ethernet hub using a straight-
through cable. Increase the number of end-user systems by using subnets that utilize
static addressing, or by using a default gateway connection.
Refer to
Connecting the Ethernet Cable
on page 11 to connect the router to multiple
end-user systems or a single PC.
