Basic Configuration of the Modem 4-1

Chapter 4

Basic Configuration of the Modem

This chapter describes how to perform the basic configuration of your Model DM602 ADSL

Modem for your Internet connection.

Accessing the Web Configuration Manager in the Modem

In order to use the browser-based Web Configuration Manager built into the modem, your

computer must have a web browser program installed such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or

Netscape Navigator. Because the Configuration Manager uses Java, your Web browser must be

Java-enabled and support HTTP uploads. NETGEAR recommends using Microsoft Internet

Explorer 4.0 or Netscape Navigator 4.0 or above. Free browser programs are readily available for

Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX/Linux.

To configure the modem for Internet access using your browser:

1. Turn on the modem and wait at least ten seconds for initialization to complete.

If you normally use a login program such as Enternet or WinPOET to access the Internet, do

not launch that program.

2. Reboot your computer to obtain DHCP configuration from the modem.

3. Launch your web browser, and click your browser’s Stop button.

Note: The Model DM602 modem ships from the factory set in Router Device Mode and

functions as a DHCP server. So, if the TCP/IP configuration of your computer is set to

optain an IP address automatically, it will be able to connect to the modem.
