Appendix A: FAQ 
1.  How do I configure the router to access Internet by ADSL users? 
1)  First, configure the ADSL Modem configured in RFC1483 bridge model. 
2)  Connect the Ethernet cable from your ADSL Modem to the WAN port on the router. The 
telephone cord plugs into the Line port of the ADSL Modem. 
3)  Login to the router, click the “Network” menu on the left of your browser, and click "WAN" 
submenu. On the WAN page, select “PPPoE” for WAN Connection Type. Type user 
name in the “User Name” field and password in the “Password” field, finish by clicking 
“Connect”.

“Connect Manually” for Internet connection mode. Type an appropriate number for “Max 
Idle Time” to avoid wasting paid time. Otherwise, you can select “Auto-connecting” for 
Internet connection mode.
