7. CONFIGURING THE ROUTER FOR INTERNET CONNECTION
To surf the Internet using your Westell Dual Connect Router, you must set up your account profile, confirm your
DSL sync, and establish a PPP session with your Internet Service Provider (ISP). After you have connected to the
Internet, you may use the Router’s Network Address Translation (NAT) feature to configure your Router for a
specific NAT service, details discussed later in this section.
7.1 Setting Up an Account Profile
NOTE: Before you set up your account profile, you must obtain your Account ID and Account Password from
your Internet service provider. You will use this information when you set up your account parameters. (Account
Parameters are required before connecting to the Internet.) If you are at a screen and need help, click on the Help
button to learn more about the screen.
After connecting the Router, bring up your Web browser and type http://dslrouter or http://192.168.1.1 in the
browser’s address window. Press Enter on your keyboard. The Getting Started screen will appear. Click on next.
