3. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord and do not locate the product where persons will walk on the power  
cord.  
4. Do not attempt to service this product yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous high  
voltage points or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.  
5. General purpose cables are used with this product for connection to the network. Special cables, which may be  
required by the regulatory inspection authority for the installation site, are the responsibility of the customer. Use a  
UL Listed, CSA certified, minimum No. 24 AWG line cord for connection to the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)  
network.  
6. When installed in the final configuration, the product must comply with the applicable Safety Standards and  
regulatory requirements of the country in which it is installed. If necessary, consult with the appropriate regulatory  
agencies and inspection authorities to ensure compliance.  
7. A rare phenomenon can create a voltage potential between the earth grounds of two or more buildings. If products  
installed in separate buildings are interconnected, the voltage potential may cause a hazardous condition. Consult  
a qualified electrical consultant to determine whether or not this phenomenon exists and, if necessary, implement  
corrective action prior to interconnecting the products.  
8. Input power to this product must be provided by one of the following: (1) a UL Listed/CSA certified power source  
with a Class 2 or Limited Power Source (LPS) output for use in North America, or (2) a certified transformer, with a  
Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) output having a maximum of 240 VA available, for use in the country of  
installation.  
9. In addition, since the equipment is to be used with telecommunications circuits, take the following precautions:  
—
—
—
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.  
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.  
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the  
network interface.  
—
—
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.  
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of  
electric shock from lightning.  
—
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of  
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no  
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference  
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to  
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
„
„
„
„
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.  
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
Notice to Users of the United States Telephone Network  
The following notice applies to versions of the modem that have been FCC Part 68 approved.  
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the Administrative Council for  
Terminal Attachment (ACTA). On the bottom side of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a  
product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the Telephone  
Company.  
This equipment is intended to connect to the Public Switched Telephone Network through a Universal Service Order  
Code (USOC) type RJ11C jack. A plug and jack used to connect this equipment to the premises wiring and telephone  
network must comply with the applicable FCC Part 68 rules and requirements adopted by the ACTA. A compliant  
telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this product. It has been designed to be connected to a compatible  
modular jack that is also compliant.  
The Ringer Equivalence Number (or REN) is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a  
telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming  
call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that  
may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local Telephone Company. The REN for this  
product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the  
REN without a decimal point. For example, 03 represents a REN of 0.3.  
If the modem causes harm to the telephone network, the Telephone Company will notify you in advance that temporary  
discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice is not practical, the Telephone Company will notify the  
customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is  
necessary.  
The Telephone Company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures that could affect the  
operation of the equipment. If this happens, the Telephone Company will provide advance notice in order for you to  
make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service. If trouble is experienced with the modem, refer to the  
repair and warranty information in this document.  
If the equipment is causing harm to the telephone network, the Telephone Company may request that you disconnect  
the equipment until the problem is resolved.  
The user may make no repairs to the equipment.  
Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility commission, public service  
commission or corporation commission for information.  
If the site has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the installation of the modem  
does not disable the alarm equipment. If you have questions about what will disable alarm equipment, consult your  
Telephone Company or a qualified installer.

Overview  
This chapter provides basic instructions for connecting the router to a computer or  
a LAN and to the Internet using DSL. The first part provides instructions to set up  
the hardware, and the second part describes how to prepare your PC for use with  
the router.  
It is assumed that you have already subscribed to DSL service with your Internet  
service provider (ISP).  
Connecting the Hardware  
Caution  
Shut down your PC and any other equipment before connecting it to the  
router.  
To connect your router:  
Procedure  
1. Connect your ADSL line to the port labeled LINE on the rear panel of the  
device.  
2. For routers with a phone port (model numbers of the form 6211-I1-x0x),  
optionally connect your telephone to the port labeled PHONE.  
3. Connect your PC or a LAN:  
— Use the supplied Ethernet cable to connect your PC directly to the router.  
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the port labeled LAN on the  
router and connect the other end to the Ethernet port of your computer.  
— Alternatively, use the supplied USB cable to connect your PC directly to  
the router. Connect one end of the USB cable to the port labeled USB on  
the router and connect the other end to a free USB port on your PC. Install  
the USB drivers as described in the user’s guide on the CD.

2. Hardware Installation and PC Setup  
— If your LAN has more than one computer, you can attach one end of an  
Ethernet cable to a hub or a switch and the other to the LAN port of the  
router. Either a crossover or straight-through Ethernet cable can be used.  
4. Connect the AC power adapter to the POWER connector on the back of the  
device and plug the adapter into a wall outlet or power strip.

between 3 and 254), with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Your router's default IP  
address is 192.168.1.1.  
Windows XP PCs
