6. INSTALLING THE HARDWARE
This section explains the hardware installation procedures for connecting to your Router.
6.1 Installation Requirements
To install the VersaLink, you will need the following:
• Active DSL line
• Network Interface Card (NIC) installed in your PC, or
• 802.11 b/g wireless adapter
IMPORTANT: Please wait until you have received notification from your Internet service provider (ISP) that your
DSL line has been activated before installing your VersaLink.
6.2 Before you begin
Make sure that your kit contains the following items:
• Verizon VersaLink Wireless Gateway
• Power Supply
• RJ-45 Ethernet cable (straight-through) (yellow)
• RJ-11 Phone cable
• Verizon CD-ROM containing User Guide in PDF format
• Wireless antenna
6.3 Microfilters
ADSL signals must be blocked from reaching each telephone, answering machine, fax machine, computer Modem
or any similar conventional device. Failure to do so may degrade telephone voice quality and ADSL performance.
Install a microfilter if you desire to use the DSL-equipped line jack for telephone, answering machine, fax machine
or other telephone device connections. Microfilter installation requires no tools or telephone rewiring. Just unplug
the telephone device from the baseboard or wall mount and snap in a microfilter, next snap in the telephone device.
You can purchase microfilters from your local electronics retailer, or contact the original provider of your DSL
equipment.
