ADSL Modem

Connecting Using the Ethernet Port

1. Connect one end of the provided phone cable to the DSL (RJ-11 phone) port that is on the back of your
Modem. Connect the other end of the phone cable to the wall jack with DSL service.
NOTE: A small device called a microfilter (not included) may be necessary between each phone
and wall jack to prevent interference. Contact your ISP if you have any questions.
IMPORTANT: For countries that have phone jacks with RJ-11 connectors, make sure to only place
the microfilters between the phone and the wall jack and not between the Modem and the wall
jack or your DSL will not connect.
For countries that do not have phone jacks with RJ-11 connectors (e.g. France, Sweden,
Switzerland, United Kingdom, etc.), except for ISDN users, the microfilter has to be used between
the modem and the wall jack, because the microfilter will have the RJ-11 connector.
2. Connect one end of the provided Ethernet cable to your PC's Ethernet port. Connect the other end of the cable
to the Ethernet port on the back of your Modem.
3. Connect the power adapter to your Modem and to the electrical outlet.
4. Turn the Power Switch on the back of the Modem to the ON position.
5. Turn on your PC.
The connection of the Modem using Ethernet is complete.
