, refer to the Installation Instructions on
the other side of this guide.
To connect the Wireless Cable/ DSL Router to an analog or ISDN modem
, refer to the installation
instructions on this side of this guide.
To make an Ethernet connection:
Connect
one end of the supplied Ethernet cable to
your PC's Ethernet adapter. Connect the other
end to one of the LAN ports on the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router.
To make a wireless connection:
Make sure each Wireless Card that will
be connecting to the network is set to
Infrastructure
mode.
Note:
Each Wireless Access PC Card or PCI
Adapter in the wireless network must have
the
Infrastructure
mode selected within the
Configuration Utility. Refer to your Wireless
Access PC Card or PCI Adapter documentation for
information on selecting
Infrastructure
mode.
Turn on your analog or ISDN modem. Connect the included power cord to the power jack
on the Wireless Cable/DSL Router. Plug the power cord into a standard power outlet.
Launch a Web browser. In the location or address line of your Web browser, type
http://
192.168.123.254
to access the Configuration Utility. There is no default password for the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router, so just click
Login
. Click
Primary Setup
and follow the
on-screen instructions. You will need to enter the network information for your ISP account,
including your user name, your password, and your dial-up number. When prompted, select
the WAN type as
Dial-up Modem,
and continue to follow the on-screen instructions.
Congratulations!
The installation procedure is now complete.
You should now have secure and shared Internet access. Click

There are two main reasons why you would want to use either an analog or ISDN modem with
the Wireless Cable/DSL Router:
• You use dial-up Internet service instead of cable or DSL Internet service.
• You have cable or DSL Internet service but want to have an analog or ISDN backup in case
your broadband Internet service is unavailable.
Perform the following steps to connect an analog or ISDN modem, manually change the WAN
type, and properly configure the Wireless Cable/DSL Router:
Turn off your PC and your analog or
ISDN modem.
Connect a serial modem cable to your analog
or ISDN modem and to the COM port on the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
Note:
If your analog or ISDN modem is connected
to your PC using a USB cable, disconnect the USB
cable from both your PC and from your analog or
ISDN modem.

Quick Installation Guide
To verify your connection, launch a Web browser and go to
www.usr.com
. If the page loads,
you are finished with the installation procedure. If the page does not load, proceed to the
Troubleshooting section of the Companion Reference Guide.
The following graphic is a representation of a typical system topology after the installation of the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router.
If you have any difficulties connecting to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router, check the top three
issues below and see if they apply to your situation.
• If you are attempting to create a wireless connection, but cannot connect to the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router, make sure each Wireless Card is set to
Infrastructure
mode. If the
Wireless Cards are set to
802.11b AdHoc
mode, you will not be able to connect to the
Wireless Cable/DSL Router. When each Wireless Card is set to
Infrastructure
mode, it
should automatically connect to the Access Point of the Wireless Cable/DSL Router. If the
Wireless Cards do not automatically connect, rescan until they detect the Wireless
Cable/DSL Router and connect.
• If you create a wireless connection to the Wireless Cable/DSL Router, but are experiencing
poor link quality, check the positioning of the Wireless Cable/DSL Router. Long distances,
multiple floors, or steel or concrete walls can diminish the link quality. If possible, reposition
the Wireless Cable/DSL Router to reduce the effect of any of these obstacles.
• If you have the Wireless Cable/DSL Router properly connected and can access the Internet,
but are experiencing difficulties connecting with special applications (e.g., ICQ, Battle.net,
etc.), you must assign specific ports in order to bypass the firewall function. For more
information about how to configure this function, refer to the "Special Applications"
section within the “Configuring the Wireless Cable/DSL Router" chapter of the User Guide.
Note:
If you want to attach a printer to your network, refer to the Print Server section of the
Companion Reference Guide and the User Guide for installation instructions.
For troubleshooting and support information, refer to the Companion Reference Guide
or to the User Guide on the U.S. Robotics Installation CD-ROM.
