1.1 Getting Acquainted with the SpeedTouch™
Delivery check
Check your SpeedTouch™ package for the following items:
One SpeedTouch™USB or SpeedTouch™330

instructions.
Other materials
Your SpeedTouch™ shipping carton may also include release notes, safety and confor-
mity declarations and other materials.
The SpeedTouch™
Unlike most traditional modems, the electronic circuitry of the SpeedTouch™ has been 
shaped into a stylish body.
Note
As you notice, there is no separate mains plug, cord, or power adapter. This 
is because the SpeedTouch™ is powered via the USB connection. 
ADSL service
The appropriate DSL service must be available at your premises:
ADSL service must be enabled on your telephone line.
As both telephone and ADSL service are simultaneously available from the same 
copper pair, you will need a central splitter or distributed filters for decoupling 
ADSL and telephone signals.
Public telephone lines carry voltages that can cause electric shock. Only install splitter/
filters yourself if these are qualified for that purpose.
Computer
Your computer must be equipped with a USB port capable of powering attached USB 
devices. You may also use a USB hub to connect the SpeedTouch™.
Note
Make sure you are not using low-powered USB ports to connect the Speed-
Touch™. If you are not sure of the type of USB port, see the User's Guide of 
your computer or USB port hub.
