Appendix A
This guide covers most cable and DSL installations that are configured for Dynamic
or Static IP addressing. This guide assumes that you have active and properly
functioning cable or DSL Internet service. If you are uncertain about which type of
configuration you have, refer to the User Guide located on the Installation CD-ROM
for more advanced setup procedures.
Note:
DSL users, if you use a login application to access the Internet, you are more
than likely using a PPPoE connection. Refer to the appropriate section of the User
Guide on the Installation CD-ROM for information on collecting your configuration
information. If you use Dial-Up Networking and a VPN adapter, you are most likely
using a PPTP connection. Refer to the appropriate section of the User Guide on the
Installation CD-ROM for information on collecting your configuration information. If
you are unsure about what type of connection you are using, contact your Internet
Service Provider (ISP).
Note:
Your Cable or DSL modem must be connected to your computer via an RJ-45
Ethernet connection. The Wireless Cable/DSL Router is not compatible with Cable or
DSL modems with only a USB connection. You must have an Ethernet adapter (NIC)
or 802.11b Wireless Adapter installed in your computer.
You need to gather the following information about your computer from your Internet
Service Provider (ISP). Contact your ISP for assistance in obtaining this information.
Not all of this information may be required for the installation of the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router. If your ISP cannot provide you with this information, the following
basic steps will assist you in gathering most of the required information.
