DSL-584T ADSL Router User Guide 
Installation Notes 
In order to establish a connection to the Internet it will be necessary to provide information to the Router that will be 
stored in its memory. For some users, only their account information (Username and Password) is required. For others, 
various parameters that control and define the Internet connection will be required. You can print out the two pages 
below and use the tables to list this information. This way you have a hard copy of all the information needed to setup 
the Router. If it is necessary to reconfigure the device, all the necessary information can be easily accessed. Be sure to 
keep this information safe and private.  
Low Pass Filters 
Since ADSL and telephone services share the same copper wiring to carry their respective signals, a filtering 
mechanism may be necessary to avoid mutual interference. A low pass filter device can be installed for each telephone 
that shares the line with the ADSL line. These filters are easy to install passive devices that connect to the ADSL device 
and/or telephone using standard telephone cable. Ask your service provider for more information about the use of low 
pass filters with your installation.  
Operating Systems 
The DSL-584T uses an HTML-based web interface for setup and management. The web configuration manager may be 
accessed using any operating system capable of running web browser software, including Windows 98 SE, Windows 
ME, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.  
Web Browser 
Any common web browser can be used to configure the Router using the web configuration management software. The 
program is designed to work best with more recently released browsers such as Opera, Microsoft Internet Explorer® 
version 6.0, Netscape Navigator® version 6.2.3, or later versions. The web browser must have JavaScript enabled. 
JavaScript is enabled by default on many browsers. Make sure JavaScript has not been disabled by other software (such 
as virus protection or web user security packages) that may be running on your computer. 
Ethernet Port (NIC Adapter) 
Any computer that uses the Router must be able to connect to it through the Ethernet port on the Router. This 
connection is an Ethernet connection and therefore requires that your computer be equipped with an Ethernet port as 
well. Most notebook computers are now sold with an Ethernet port already installed. Likewise, most fully assembled 
desktop computers come with an Ethernet NIC adapter as standard equipment. If your computer does not have an 
Ethernet port, you must install an Ethernet NIC adapter before you can use the Router. If you must install an adapter, 
follow the installation instructions that come with the Ethernet NIC adapter.  
Additional Software 
For a bridged connection, the information needed to make and maintain the Internet connection is stored on another 
computer or gateway device using PPP client or similar third party client software, not in the Router itself.  
If your ADSL service is delivered through a PPPoE, PPPoA or Static IP connection, the information needed to establish 
and maintain the Internet connection can be stored in the Router. In this case, it is not necessary to install software on 
your computer. It may however be necessary to change some settings in the device, including account information used 
to identify and verify the connection.
