You'll find your serial number on a bar code sticker on the bottom of the router and also on the box. This number has 12 characters. You will also need your model number, which is USR9003.

Installation Overview & System Requirements

What You Need Before You Begin

Make sure that no filter connects between the ADSL router and telephone wall jack. (Some installations require a special type splitter between the router and wall jack. In these installations, the splitter must include both telephone and router jacks. If the splitter doesn't, don't install it between the phone jack and router.)

Should You Connect via Ethernet or USB?

The USRobotics ADSL Ethernet/USB Router gives you the option to connect through a USB or an Ethernet port. Selecting how to connect your router is a matter of preference. Connection also depends on your available computer ports and the operating system that you use. For example, you must use an Ethernet connection with these operating systems: Windows 95, Windows NT 4.0, Macintosh and Linux.

Step 1. Connect Microfilters (If Necessary)

• If your package didn't include microfilters, and your ISP didn't provide any: Skip to Step 2 of these instructions.

• If your installation requires microfilters: Install one on each telephone device that shares the same phone line as the ADSL signal. (Telephone devices include telephones, answering machines, and fax machines.)

A microfilter is a small device that reduces interference between ADSL signals and telephone signals. You only need a microfilter if the ADSL router and a telephone device share the same phone line. If you don't use a microfilter, you may experience background noise on your telephone during data transmission. Also, telephone calls may interrupt data transmissions.

Connect Microfilters to Telephone Devices
To install the microfilter, plug the phone into the microfilter, and then plug the microfilter into the telephone wall jack. Do not install a microfilter on the cable that connects your router to the telephone jack unless your microfilter has a connection for both the telephone and the DSL device.

Step 2. Install the ADSL Ethernet/USB Router

To install the USRobotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router, insert the Installation CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of your computer. If the installation does not start automatically, go to your desktop and double-click My Computer, double-click the drive letter associated with your CD-ROM drive, and then double-click Setup.

The USRobotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router Installer Welcome window will display. Click Next to continue installing the USRobotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router.

• Select the connection type that you will use to connect the router to your computer. Click Next.

• A qualification test will run to verify that your system meets the minimum installation requirements. The Results screen will display those items in your configuration that passed with a green flag and the ones that failed with a red flag. If your system passed the qualification, click Next.
  
  

If the software notifies you that your system failed the test, click View Report. The report identifies which component failed.

Step 3. Connect the Cables

The table below summarizes data for connections and ports on the back of the router.

Item	Description
O/I	Pushbutton switch that turns the USRobotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router on and off.
Power	Input jack that accepts cable from wall power supply.
Console	Connects an RS-232 cable (not included) to the router. You can use the cable to communicate to the router through the Terminal User Interface. The Terminal User Interface (TUI) is another way to configure the router or get diagnostic information. The TUI substitutes for the Web User Interface.
USB	Universal serial bus port on the back of the router.
ENET1	Ethernet Port 1 on the back of the router.
ENET2	Ethernet Port 2 on the back of the router.
ADSL	Digital subscriber line RJ-11 service jack on the back of the router.

Connect the Power Adapter
Be sure to only use the included power supply. Connect the power adapter cord to the “Power” jack at the rear of the router. Connect the power adapter to a standard wall outlet.

Turn on the router by pressing the power button labeled “O / I.” The “PWR” LED on the front panel of the USRobotics ADSL Ethernet/USB Router will be illuminated if power is being supplied to the router. The router will initialize after the power is plugged in. This process takes about a minute. Click Next to initialize the router.

Connect the Telephone Cable
Connect one end of the included telephone cable to the “ADSL”telephone port on the back of your router. Connect the other end of the cable into the telephone wall jack. Click Next.

Connect the Ethernet or USB Cable

Ethernet
If you are connecting up to two devices, you can plug them directly into the back of the router. Doing so eliminates the need for a separate hub. Insert one end of the Ethernet cable into either the “ENET1” or “ENET2” port on the back of the USRobotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on your computer’s 10/100 Network Interface Card (NIC).

• Click Finish.

USB

• If you have chosen to connect via the USB port, insert the rectangular end of the included USB cable into the USB port of the computer. Insert the square end of the cable into the port labeled “USB” on the USRobotics SureConnect ADSL Ethernet/USB Router.
  
  
• After you plug in the USB cable, the router detects your PC. Then the router automatically installs its software on your PC. (Your system may require a system reboot.)
  
  
• The Found New Hardware Wizard notifies you that the PC detects the router. Click Finish.
