Analog Modem
You can manually change the WAN type to use an analog modem
instead of a broadband connection. Perform the following steps to
configure the broadband router for an analog modem:
1. Detach the Ethernet cable from the broadband router. Connect the
modem cable to your analog modem and to the COM port on the
broadband router. Make sure the modem is powered on.
2. Go to the Configuration Utility and click
Primary Setup
. Click
Change
and select the WAN type as Dialup Network. Enter the appropriate
information for your dial-up Internet service.
3. Click
Save
and reboot the broadband router. Click
Dial-up
to initiate
a dial-up session with your ISP. The peripheral status will display
whether or not the call was successful. If the settings are correct, the
analog modem can be used to connect to the Internet. If the settings
are not correct, you must enter in the correct values before the
modem can be used to connect to the Internet.
Note:
After you have installed your broadband router, it is recommended
that you change the administrator password for your network. Open a
Web browser and type
http://192.168.123.254
to access the
Configuration Utility. The default administrator password for your network
is
admin
. Log in and click
Toolbox
. Enter the old password and then
enter and confirm the new password. If you forget your password, refer
to the Console Mode section of the user guide on the CD.
