1 Introduction

The XH1175 ADSL Router is optimised to address the growing demand for high-speed

Internet access. With four IEEE 802.3-compliant Ethernet (UTP) ports, it aims to provide a

wide array of connectivity options without relaying on host PC drivers.

The ADSL Ethernet Router is an “always-on” high-speed broadband connection to the

Internet. Using existing twisted-pair telephone lines, ADSL technology provides data rates

more than 100 times as fast as a traditional analog modem, without an interruption in

telephone service.

The ADSL Ethernet Router is fully compliant with the full-rate ADSL (T1.413 Issue 2 and

G.dmt) and the splitterless G.lite (G.992.2) standards. It can achieve data transfer rates of up

to 8Mbps downstream and 1Mbps upstream.

2.6 Quality-of-Service (QoS)

The DSE ADSL Router supports several types of (Quality-of-Service) QoS functions with two-

level priority queues to improve multimedia or real-time networking applications. The QoS

functions are based on:

• Port-based priority

• 802.1Q VLAN priority tag

• The TOS / DS (DiffServ) field of TCP/IP as defined in RFC 2474

2.7 Advanced Firewall

The DSE ADSL Router incorporates an advanced, Stateful-Packet-Inspection (SPI) Firewall.

This firewall allows you to block / allow traffic according to Access Control Lists (ACLs) that

you have defined. This granular control of traffic, coupled with accurate logging, helps to

protect your network from Internet threats.

The Firewall is

enabled

by default, and will block all un-requested traffic – No user

configuration is needed. If your computer is “port scanned”, it will not answer – fooling the

scanner into thinking there is no device present.

Hardware Installation

2.8 Front Panel

Operation of the LED indicators, as shown in the figure, are described below.

2.9 Rear Panel

The rear panel of the Router provides access to one WAN connection, the FACTORY RESET

button, four LAN connections, DC power input and the power ON/OFF switch as indicated in

the figure below.

Note:

To reset the router back to it’s default configuration setting, with the router on, hold

down the reset button for approximately 10 seconds. The router will then automatically restart.

XH1175 - DSE ADSL Router

2.10 Power On

Connect the supplied 12V DC power adapter to a power outlet and turn the power switch,

located on the rear of the router, ON – the ADSL router will then enter a self-test phase.

When it is in the self-test phase, the READY LED will be lit ON for about 8 seconds - the

READY LED will then flash to indicate that the self-test phase has finished. Finally, the

READY LED will begin to flash constantly to indicate that the router is in normal operation.

2.11 Make sure ADSL service is activated

Before you can use your ADSL router to connect to the Internet, you must confirm that the

following conditions have been met.

• You are located within about 5km of an ADSL enabled phone exchange and you can get

Telecom’s ADSL service. This can be checked on-line by visiting “http://adsl.dse.co.nz”

and clicking on the link “

your area

” – or by calling Telecom on 0800 253 878.

• Telecom has enabled the ADSL service to your house or office. This can be facilitated by

Ihug, Xtra or directly with Telecom

• Because ADSL and voice works on the same phone line at the same time, you need to

install ADSL filter/s on each of your normal Telephone devices or contact Telecom on 123

to arrange for someone to install a central splitter.

• You need to have an account with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to enable your new

ADSL line to connect to the Internet.

• To connect with IHUG, simply call 0800 GET IHUG or visit www.ihug.co.nz/dse/adsl

To connect with XTRA JetStream, simply call 0800 JET XTRA

2.12 Configure your phone equipment

ADSL works by combining both voice and data signals on the same phone line. At your

premises, these signals need to be separated through the use of an approved Filter or

Splitter. Whilst both achieve the same results, each has their pros and cons.

Filter Splitter

Ideal for

Smaller installations with a

limited amount of phone

outlets (phones, answering

machines, cordless phones,

56K modems, Fax, etc.)

Larger installations or situations

where filters cannot be used

(alarm dialers and other

permanently wired telephone

devices).

Installation

method

Self install Professional contractor only

Maximum

phones

5 – although double and triple

adaptors can be plugged into

the phone socket of each filter.

Unlimited

How to get Dick Smith Electronics –

XH7556

Call Telecom on 123

Cost

Low per unit for most

installations

Higher – depends on installer

and the actual installation

2.12.1 Option 1: Install ADSL Filter(s) yourself

• All telephone equipment must be filtered in an ADSL installation. This includes corded

& cordless phones, answering machines, faxes, caller display units, analogue modem

(including such devices as a Sky digital decoder with integrated modem), dedicated

dialers, Etc. Filtering telephone equipment is as simple as plugging the XH7556 DSE

ADSL filter in-line with the device/s.

• Your ADSL modem or router will be the only device that can connect directly to your

jack point. However should an adaptor be required between the plug on the modem

cord and the jack point, or you wish to connect telephone equipment to the same jack

point, the DSE ADSL filter can be used by plugging the router or modem into the

“ADSL” socket.

• Do not plug an ADSL modem or router into the “PHONE” socket if the modem cord

has this type of plug.

•

It is important that the filter is connected the right way around.

 The lead coming out of the side marked

“LINE”

is plugged into the telephone JP

 Non-ADSL telephone equipment then plugs into the “PHONE” socket on the filter

 The ADSL Modem or Router plugs into the “ADSL” socket on the filter.

•

Up to 5 filters can be used on a single telephone line. If you need to install more than

5 filters, a central splitter must be installed by Telecom.

• If you need to connect more than one item of telephone equipment at the same jack

point, then a double adaptor can be plugged into the “PHONE” socket of this filter.

• This Line Filter has a RJ11 “ADSL” socket incorporated. Only ADSL modems or

routers may be plugged into this socket.

XH1175 - DSE ADSL Router

CAUTION:

Failure to connect ALL telephone type equipment via a filter will result in loss of

the data link whenever a call is made or answered. In many cases the link will also be lost

when a call is received, even if it is not answered.

2.12.2 Option 2: Have an ADSL splitter professionally installed

• Contact Telecom on 123 to arrange for a central splitter to be installed.

2.13 Connecting the Router to your PC

1. You must have an Ethernet network card or adaptor installed (See appendix for a list of

compatible Ethernet Adaptors for PDA, Notebook or PC)

2. You must have the

TCP/IP protocol

installed.

3. Set your TCP/IP properties to “Obtain IP address automatically” – refer to the next

section of this manual on how to do this.

4. Once you have confirmed the above, proceed to the “

Configuring the ADSL Router

”

section of this manual.

2.14 Router / PC Connection Diagram

Connect the router as shown in the diagram below. Please note that you do not need to have

as many computers as shown.

Note 1: Use this adaptor only if a SPLITTER has been installed

Note 2:

This is the correct way to install a XH7556 FILTER – refer to the filter instructions.

ping

command.

Ping 192.168.1.2

If the following messages appear:

Pinging 192.168.1.2 with 32 bytes of data:

Reply from 192.168.1.2: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64

Reply from 192.168.1.2: bytes=32 time<10ms TTL=64

A communication link between your computer and this Router has been successfully

established. Please note that the values for bytes, time and TTL are not critical – we are

looking for a response. Otherwise, if you get the following messages:

Pinging 192.168.1.2 with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.

There must be something wrong in the configuration or it may be a cable issue. Please check

that the front panel LINK LED that corresponds to the port you have plugged in to is lit. Check

the TCP/IP configuration of your computer. Try turning off the router and restarting it. Then

reboot your computer.
