Telepermit Information

DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router PTC 272/06/039

PTC200 General Warning

1. The grant of a Telepermit for any item of terminal equipment indicates only

that Telecom has accepted that the item complies with minimum conditions

for connection to its network. It indicates no endorsement of the product by

Telecom, nor does it provide any sort of warranty. Above all, it provides no

assurance that any item will work correctly in all respects with another item of

Telepermitted equipment of a different make or model, nor does it imply that

any product is compatible with all of Telecom's network services.

The Service Covered by this Telepermit

2. This Telepermit shows that this DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router is

suitable for connection to Telecom’s existing ADSL1 service. This service is

defined by the specification PTC270. When compliance with the specification

XH9950 – DSE Wireless ADSL Router 802.11g 4 port

is proved a PTC272 Telepermit is issued for each product. This Telepermit

does not show suitability for connection to a new ADSL service when Telecom

introduces it. Telecom will require proof of compliance with a new PTC

specification when the new service is introduced

ADSL2 & ADSL2+ Services

3. ADSL2 and ADSL2+ services are only available from the network of the ADSL

Service Provider. Telecom does not currently provide either service to

customers from its Broadband network. When Telecom introduces ADSL2

and/or ADSL2+ services this Wireless Router has not been proven suitable for

connection to it.

Routers and Power Supply

4. This DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router must be connected to the Telecom

network using the model RH48-1201200AS AC-AC Power Adaptor that it was

tested with in Telelab limited Test Report number 1236, testing date 29

September 2006. Failure to do so could negate the Telepermit as untested

power supplies may affect the routers operation.

This DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router on Long Lines

5. This DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router may not achieve the type of “high

speed” operation expected when attached to a line that is longer than

intended by the ITU-T G996.1 ADSL standard i.e. >4 km of 0.4mm cable or a

shorter cable length with several tails or multiples. If the Router is installed in

such conditions and does not give the expected “download” performance,

then do not refer the matter to the Telecom Fault Service or ADSL Helpdesk.

User Instructions (1) for This DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router

6. When distributed to Broadband users attached to the Telecom network the

User Instructions for setting up this DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router must

not contain any information that relates to setting up the router on another

companies network. Such information is confusing for the new customer and

causes excessive calls to the Jetstream Helpdesk.

User Instructions (2) for This DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router

7. If customers have problems setting up this DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless

Router to download information from the “Internet” via the Telecom network

the problem must be directed to the Router supplier (DSE NZ limited) do not

call the Telecom Fault Service or Jetstream helpdesk or a monetary charge

will result.

Security of the Wireless Connectivity on This DSE XH9950 ADSL Wireless Router

8. Security of the 802.11g wireless connection associated with this DSE XH9950

ADSL Wireless Router is the Supplier’s and customer’s responsibility.

Telecom will take no responsibility for charges made to customer’s accounts

due to poorly organised wireless security allowing unknown users to connect

to the internet via this wireless router. Should this occur do not complain to

the Telecom Fault Service or JetStream Helpdesk.

XH9950 – DSE Wireless ADSL Router 802.11g 4 port

3.3 Make sure ADSL service is activated

Note: Before you can use any ADSL modem or router, you must confirm that the

following conditions have been met.

• You are located within 5Km of an ADSL enabled phone exchange and you

can get Telecom’s ADSL service. This can be checked by contacting

Telecom.

• Telecom has enabled the ADSL service to your house or office.

• Because the 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 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.

3.4 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 pro’s 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 diallers 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

or XH8556

Call Telecom on 123

Cost

Low per unit for most

installations

Higher – depends on installer

and the actual installation

3.4.1 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 or XH8556 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 XH7556

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.

• If the Line Filter has a RJ11 “ADSL” socket incorporated. Only ADSL modems or routers

may be plugged into this socket.

Note: If you have a house alarm with dialler which is hardwired into your phone line,

you will need to have a central splitter installed as the filters will not be adequate.

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.

XH9950 – DSE Wireless ADSL Router 802.11g 4 port

3.4.2 Option 2: Have an ADSL splitter professionally installed

• Contact Telecom on 123 to arrange for a technician to be sent out to install

a central splitter.

3.5 Connecting the ADSL modem to your PC

1. Plug the provided 12v power adaptor into the connector labelled as POWER

on the rear panel.

2. Plug one end of the provided Ethernet cable into one of the four LAN

connectors on the rear of the router and the other end into a Network/Ethernet

card on your desktop/laptop computer.

3. Finally plug the RJ11 end of the provided phone cable into the LINE

connector (as shown above) and plug the other end either into your filter

directly or through the provided BT adaptor into your phone line. Press the

SW button located on the rear of the router to turn your router ON.

NOTE: You can also setup/use the router without any LAN cables provided you have

a wireless network card installed on your computer/laptop. This is possible as the
