DSL/PPPoE Set Up

Follow the steps below to setup the Hermes Router & Phone Adapter for your DSL/PPPoE Internet connection.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN : These steps are only needed if your DSL connection requires a User Login and Password entry in order to connect to your DSL service. If so, you must have both your User Login and Password in order to complete these steps. For additional information regarding your User Login and Password, please contact your DSL service provider prior to beginning these steps.
 
NOTE: The easiest way is to start is by connecting a PC directly to your DSL modem and logging into the world wide web as you would normally do. The Hermes Router and Phone adapter will allow you to share your Internet network for both Hermes service and your PC. You can connect the Hermes adapter and move your PC to the PC port of the Hermes adapter after the first few steps below (see Figure 2 for multiple computer installation with a router/hub).


  1. Setup your network according to the Figure1 below. Be sure to connect your PC via an Ethernet cable to the LAN port of the Hermes Router & Phone Adapter.
