Step 3: Install a Telephone Filter on Every Telephone Line

IMPORTANT: Install filters on every phone jack on your DSL line that

will be used for an analog device to prevent interference from the

digital signal provided by DSL service. A filter is required between all

phones, answering machines, fax machines, Caller ID units or analog

routers and the phone jack for the DSL line. Connect the phone line

connected to your router to the side of the filter labeled “ADSL HPN”

c. DSL Router and Analog Device on the Same Jack

1. 1. Connect the filter to

your phone jack.

2. A filter is required

between all phones,

answering machines,

fax machines, Caller ID

units or analog routers

and the phone jack for

the DSL line.

3. Connect the phone

line connecter to your

router to the side of

the filter labeled “ADSL

HPN”.

d. DSL Router Running Directly from the Wall Jack with No Shared Devices

1. Connect the router to

your phone jack.

2. No filter is required if

the Netopia does not

share the line with an

analog device.

e. A NIC (Ethernet) card is required to complete this installation. If you do not have an available NIC

card, contact your computer vendor or authorized technician to arrange for installation.

NOTE: The NIC card must be properly installed before beginning the installation of the DSL kit

components.

Warnings and Cautions:

Refer to your PC manual for instructions on opening your PC to install

new hardware. Follow all safety warnings and precautions as specified

by your PC manufacturer.

In Addition:

• Back up any important files on your hard drive.

• Turn off your PC and unplug the power cord.

• Unplug all cables connecting your PC to the peripheral devices.

Note the port location of each device so you can easily reconnect

the cables later.

Step 4: Install the Netopia45413 DSL Router

Insert the connector

from the power

adapter to the power

port, and plug the

other end into an

electrical outlet.

Connect one end of the

phone cord to the jack

labeled “DSL” on your

router, and the other

end to the side of the

filter labeled “ADSL

HPN”. This is not

necessary if the router

does not share the jack

with another analog

device such as a phone,

answering machine, fax

machine, etc. Use Serial Port cable to transfer

data between your Router and the

PC if you wish to reconfigure the

Router. (This step is not needed

for normal installation. Call

MegaPath Networks at 1-877-

611-6342 before you start to

reconfigure the Router.)

Plug one end

of the Ethernet

cable into one

of the empty

ports labeled

Ethernet.

Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the

Ethernet port on your computer.
