A. Contents

Check that you have received the following items in the AT-AR256E pack.

1. AT-AR256E Router.

2. 240 VAC to 9VDC power adapter.

3. ADSL Phone Cable (BT to RJ11).

4. Ethernet Patch Cable (RJ45 to RJ45).

5. AT-256E Installation Manual and Quick Start Guide.

B. Pre-Installation

Check that the PC you are using to complete this initial setup has a working

Ethernet port and that the IP protocol is installed.

Have your ISP account details available. This is to include the ADSL login and

password information.

Have an ADSL line filter installed onto the incoming telephone line. This can be

done once for the premises in which case there will be an ADSL outlet provide by

the installer. Alternatively, filters can be plugged into all phone outlets on that line

and the phones plugged into the filter. A filter is not required on the phone outlet

that the ADSL router is to use.

C. Connection

Using the Ethernet patch cable connect the PC’s NIC interface to the router’s

Ethernet port, an RJ45 socket. Plug the power pack into a mains outlet and

connect the DC power cable to the 9VDC power socket on the router.

Use the telephone cable to connect the ADSL socket on the router to the ADSL

wall outlet supplied by Telecom or to a non-filtered telephone wall outlet making

sure that all other telephone outlets are now equipped with filters.

Turn on power to the PC and the router.

D.Getting Started

The AT-AR256E ADSL router is configured via a web browser preferably

Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 5.0 or later. Remember to disable any proxy

settings.

The default IP address of the AT-AR256E ADSL router is 192.168.1.1. Enter this

address into your browser’s address bar and press enter. You should receive the

Modem Access Screen from the router as shown in Figure 1.

is already entered for you, type the password and click on “Log In”.

The Quick Start page will appear if the login has been successful, as shown in

Figure 3.

The ADSL Username and Password supplied by your ISP must be entered into

the User ID and Password fields here. When ready click on “Connect”, refer to

Figure 4

If the above information is correct and the ADSL line and its filter are correctly

installed the router will attempt to establish an ADSL connection to your ISP.

While this process is underway, a screen stating “Trying to connect to ISP…“will

be displayed.

Once the connection has been successfully completed the, “Connections” screen

will appear. This screen will display the connection name, type, the IP address

allocated to the connection and the status of the connection as shown in Figure

5. Upon connection being established, under the State will show “connected”.

This process can take up to 40 seconds.

At this point it is advisable to click on the “Save Settings” command to save the

configuration information installed so far.

Next, select “setup” from the top row of tabs, the page shown in Figure 7 will

appear.

You now need to decide what IP address range you intend to use and how IP

address allocation is going to be done on your LAN network.

By default, the AT-AR256E is configured for the IP address range 192.168.1.0

with a mask of 255.255.255.0. Also by default, DHCP is on. DHCP is an

automated method of allocating IP addresses to PCs as they boot up.

If you wish to change either of these settings, click on “DHCP Configuration”.,

refer to Figure 8.

Figure 8

It can take up to 10 seconds for all the fields to show their information.

The DHCP Configuration screen allows you to turn DHCP off or on. Click on

Apply once you have completed making changes.

To change the address of the router or the whole address range, click on

“Management IP”, refer to Figure 9

By changing the IP address and mask of the router here you will need to change

your “Gateway” setting on the LAN devices E.g. PCs or Firewall. The host name

of the router and domain name of the network can also be recorded here. Click

on “Apply” once you have made any changes.

Figure 10

Now, click on Connection 0. It may take up to 10 seconds before all the fields

are updated with current data, refer to Figure 10.

Here we can check the WAN or ADSL settings that have been configured so far.

Small changes can be made here quickly without restarting the whole procedure.

It may be useful to change the name of this connection to something more

meaningful or descriptive. Click on “Apply” once you have completed making

changes.

You should then click on the “Save Settings” button to save the configuration.
