DSL Installation - PC

Thank you for choosing STI. This guide will help you install the DSL router and make sure your computer is properly configured. The DSL router has been pre-configured and is ready for you to use. Before you begin, turn off the computer. If you requested an Ethernet card from us, install it before continuing. See the Quick Installation Guide that came with the Ethernet/PCI Card.

Step 1: Connect phone cord, power supply, and Ethernet cable (all of these are in your kit)
A. Plug one end of the phone cord directly into a phone jack, and the other end into the "DSL" port on the DSL router.
B. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into your Ethernet card (at the back or side of your computer), and the other end into one of the LAN/Ethernet ports on the DSL router.
C. Plug the power supply into an electrical outlet (or surge protector), and the other end into the power port on the DSL router.
D. Install a filter on all other devices connected to your phone line(s). DO NOT install a filter on the line to the DSL router. Click HERE for more information on installing your DSL filters.

Step 2: Turn on the equipment
A. Turn on the DSL router.
B. Wait 60 seconds or until the DSL/ACT light turns amber.
C. Turn on the computer.

Step 3: Check the Connection settings
A. Click on Start, point to Settings, and click on Control Panel. (If you are using Windows XP: click on Start, and click on Control Panel.)
B. Double-click Internet Options. NOTE: If you are using Windows XP, and Category view, click on "Network and Internet Connections" then click Internet Options.
C. Make sure that "Never dial a connection" is selected as seen above.
D. Click OK.
E. Close the Control Panel.
