Please set hardware as follows: 1.ADSL Modem LAN port connects to the router WAN port and check if WAN LED light correctly. 2.PC LAN port connects to the router LAN port and check if LAN LED light correctly. Please set software as follows: 1.Set PC Windows to get IP address automatically from router. (Ex: Router IP is 192.168.1.1; PC IP address is assigned 192.168.1.100) 2.Open PCs Web browser to URL address of Router IP address (192.168.1.1) 3.Login with default administrator password, it is usually admin for most routers. 4.Setup WAN connection with your ADSL account/password (PPPoE or PPTP depends on what your ISP supplied). 5.Save WAN settings and reboot the router to make it active. There is one thing need to be noticed, if your ISP does not supply DNS server setting automatically, you may enter DNS server manually. Most of the case is that you can ping to Internet by IP address, but can not use domain name for browsing.
