1Installation

1.1 Preliminary Steps

DSL service

The DSL service must be up and running on your telephone line.

If both conventional telephone and DSL service are simultaneously available from the same copper pair, you

will need a central splitter or distributed filters for decoupling DSL and telephone signals.

Computer requirements

If you want to connect your computer using:

The Ethernet cable, make sure that the computer is equipped with an Ethernet Network Interface Card

(NIC).

A wireless connection, you will need a WiFi-certified wireless client adapter for each computer you want

to connect wirelessly.

Internet connection details

You may need the following connection details from your Internet Service Provider (ISP):

Your ISP’s method for connecting to the Internet (for example PPPoE)

The VPI/VCI (for example 8/35)

Your user name and password to connect to the Internet for PPP connections

Your IP settings in case of static configurations

You may have received this information when you subscribed at your Internet Service Provider. You may be

prompted for this information at a given step in the installation procedure.

Public telephone lines carry voltages that can cause electric shock. Only try to set up splitter/

filters that have been designed to be installed by unqualified personnel. For further assistance,

contact your Internet Service Provider.

Optionally your ISP may indicate the Service Profile to use during Setup.
