Installation Guide

Before you begin, locate the ADSL configuration information from your

Internet Service Provider (ISP). Also, if you purchased the DG834G in a

country where a microfilter is not included, you must acquire one.

Connect the DG834G to the ADSL Line

ADSL signals degrade phone sound quality. Microfilters block such

problems and are required for each phone or fax. There are two types:

one-line microfilters; and two-line microfilters which include a built-in

splitter. Sharing a phone outlet with two devices requires a splitter.

The procedure below illustrates using a

two-line combo microfilter/splitter. You

can accomplish the same result using a

one-line microfilter with a separate phone

line splitter.

a.

Insert the filter into the phone outlet

and connect the phone to the phone

connector

c.

Connect the ADSL port

of the DG834G to the ADSL

connector of the two-line filter.

Note:

Improperly connecting a filter to your DG834G will block

ADSL signals and prevent connecting to the Internet.

d.

Connect the Ethernet cable

(C)

from a LAN port of your

DG834G to the Ethernet adapter in your computer.

Install a filter on each phone device that shares the phone line

with your router.

Note:

Use one-line filters for connecting additional phones.
