ADSL Router

Before You Begin


1. 2.

If you purchased this Router to share your high-speed Internet connection with other computers, you must have an established Internet account from an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Its best to use the same computer that is connected to your ISP for configuring the DSL-504T ADSL Router. The DSL-504T acts as a DHCP server and will assign all the necessary IP address information on your network. See at the Quick Installation Guide or the Manual on the CD-ROM for setting each network adapter to automatically obtain an IP address.
