QUICK INSTALL GUIDE
Billion 8500/8520/8501 VPN Firewall Bridge/Router Installation
1.1 Starting out:
Before you can establish an Internet connection through your Billion 8500 VPN
Firewall Bridge/Router make sure you have the following:
1. A Computer or Notebook with an installed Network Adaptor (sometimes called
an Ethernet Adaptor, Network Card or NIC)
2. An SHDSL (sometimes called SDSL) service account and configuration
information provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). You should need
only a User Name and Password, but you can check with your ISP to see if you
require any of the other following configuration parameters to connect your
Billion 8500 VPN Firewall Bridge/Router to the Internet :
a. ISP User Name and Password
b. VPI/VCI parameters
c. Multiplexing Method
d. Host and Domain Names
e. ISP Domain Name Server ( DNS ) Address
f. Fixed or Static IPAddress.
1.2 Steps for Connection:
The following are the steps to properly connect your Billion 8500 VPN Firewall
Bridge/Router:
1. Turn off your computer.
2. Connect the supplied ADSL RJ-11 cable from your master SDSL socket or SDSL
enabled telephone socket to the LINE Port of your Billion 8500 VPN Firewall
Bridge/Router.
3. Connect the Ethernet cable (RJ-45) from one of the Ethernet ports of your Billion
8500 VPN Firewall Bridge/Router to the Network Adaptor in your computer.
4. Connect the Power adaptor to the Billion 8500 VPN Firewall Bridge/Router and
plug the other end into a Power outlet. Power up the unit.
5. Turn on your computer. Please allow up to 45 seconds for your Network Adaptor
to locate the Router.
6. Now you are ready to configure the Billion 8500 VPN Firewall Bridge/Router.
7. Please note that your router should be pre-configured for the UK*. All you need to
do is to follow the instructions that follow and enter your user name and password
4
as supplied by your Service Provider. No other changes should be necessary.
*Standard UK settings are VPI 0, VCI 38, Encapsulation PPPoA, and Annex B for
SHDSL. If the modem is not pre-configured for the UK, you will have to make
changes to the VPI and VCI settings and check the Encapsulation. This can be done at
Step 4 on the next page, and under Configuration. Please contact your Service
Provider to confirm their configuration parameters.
Screen shots in this QIG may vary slightly from the actual Router.
2.1 Configuration:
1. Open Internet Explorer or your default web browser and type
http://192.168.1.254 on the address bar (where you would normally enter the
web site address) as per the illustration below.
2. You will be presented with a user name and password prompt. Simply enter
user name as admin, password as admin and click OK. This will take you to
the modem’s Status Page.*
•If the user name and password prompt box does not appear make sure that any
firewall or anti-virus such as Zone Alarm or Norton is disabled. Also ensure that
your Internet settings are correct. (In Internet Explorer go to Tools/Internet
Options/Connections and make sure “Never dial a Connection” is checked. Then
Click on the LAN settings and ensure “Automatically detect settings” is checked
and all other fields are blank. Then go to Tools/Internet Options/Security and
