Connecting your Router

To start with, check that you have the following equipment

 

• ADSL Micro Filters for all phone sockets in use.
  
• RJ 11 cable to connect your router to the ADSL Micro Filter.
   
   

Now check the rear panel of the router. Rear panel of most of the routers look similar to the image below. (Please note that actual rear panel of your router might be different from the image shown below)



      1. AC Power Adapter Outlet
      2. Local Ethernet RJ 45 ports
      3. RJ 11 ADSL Port
      4. Factory Default / Reset Button
      5. Wireless Antenna

ADSL Micro Filter will look like the image below. Connecter marked as 1 should be plugged into the phone socket.



On the filter, the port marked as Phone is for telephony devices and other one marked as DSL is for ADSL devices. You can connect your phone to the Filter as shown in the image below.



Now connect the RJ 11 cable between the DSL Port of the Filter and the router as shown in the image below.



Connect your PC with the router. It can be done via wireless mode (If both PC & router is equipped with wireless technology) or via RJ 45 ethernet cable, as shown in the image below.



Now follow the router manual for next set of instructions.
