Introduction
The Sandberg Broadband Router (referred
to as the “router”) enables you to connect
up to 253 computers together in a network,
giving all of them access to e.g. an ADSL
connection. The router has a graphical user
interface and can be set up without special-
ised knowledge of network technologies.
NB:
The router works with ADSL, xDSL,
FWA and cable modem connections that
support Ethernet, PPPoE or PPTP (using
RJ45 connectors). Your Internet service
provider will be able to tell you whether
your internet connection uses one of these
three standards, enabling you to share the
connection.
Installing the router
1. Connect the mains plug on the power
supply to a mains socket and the small
round connector on the power supply to
the router. Check that the “Power” lamp
lights up.
Connect the WAN port on the router to your
existing ADSL/broadband connection using a
network cable. You should use a “crossover”
cable between ADSL equipment and the
router, for example Sandberg product num-
ber 502-51.
2. Connect one or more computers to the
ports marked 1 to 4 on the router.
3. Start the connected computers.
Setting up the router

the computers to be on the same network
