Tips & Notes
• Dependent on the Internet provider you use for DSL, further confi guration may have be car-
ried out in the DSL router.
☞
Please note:
In general, when using a router we expressly advise the use of a fl at rate or at least
a volume tariff (e.g. 5 GByte/month). The automatic disconnection after a given idle
time (e.g. after 10 minutes, e.g. in the router called „Idle time-out") may not always
function correctly.
Which means that, regardless of the router setting, the Internet connection is not
disconnected and costs continue to be incurred, even when no Internet browser is
running or all the connected computers are switched off. This can lead to very high
costs (several hundred Euros monthly!).
Even when the router does not show this behaviour, a fi rmware update, or the ins-
tallation of certain software on the computer, could change this.
Causes could be, for example, queries from exchange programs, update requests
from Windows, antivirus programs, etc. or time server queries from the router or
from Windows.
In case of doubt, disconnect the router from the mains voltage, or from the splitter,
when it is not in use!
• If you press and hold the „RESET" key, located on the back of the router, all settings of the
router will be reset to the factory settings.
Press and hold the „RESET" button (approx. 5-10 seconds) until all the LEDs briefl y go out.
Then, release the button again.
Please note that, in addition to the DSL/Internet login details (user name/password), the VCI
and VPI values must be entered correctly, see below.
• After connecting the router (or after a reset), it takes at least 1 minute until the router can be
used by a computer (e. g. to access the web interface).
• If the router is connected to a network switch, then all the computers connected to the net-
work switch have access to the Internet (as in conventional routers with built-in switch).
• Enter the VCI and VPI values correctly, otherwise an Internet connection is not possible. The
values required for your Internet provider are available online, e.g. from your provider.
The abbreviation „VCI" stands for „Virtual Channel Identifi er". The adjustable values of the
router range from 32 to 65535; the default value for T-DSL is „32". „VPI" stands for „Virtual
Path Identifi er". The possible values range from 0 to 255; the default value for T-DSL is „1".
Both values are used to identify the data transmitted between DSL subscribers and the DSL-
switching centre.
• The LEDs' function:
„POWER" LED: Lights when the router is ready for operation and fl ashes while starting up the
router
„ETH" LED: Lights when there is network connection and fl ashes during data transfer; if the
LED is off, you can assume that neither a network connection to the PC or network switch
has been detected. In the latter case, check the cable connection between the router and the
PC/network switch.
„LINK" LED: The LED lights when a DSL connection is established and fl ashes during Inter-
net connection
„INTERNET" LED: Lights during connection to the Internet and fl ashes during data transfer.
• Please consult the manufacturer's English operating instructions for further confi gurations
(the manual is available in printed form or in PDF format on the CD).
