Hi Brice, well the four additional filters, what you referred to as jacks,
are required for your telephones. With dsl you need a line directly from the
wall jack to your modem. For all other phones you need a filter in-line. If
you have any wall mounted phones you will require a filter designed
The additional jacks. In our case they were short cords with a phone plug on
one end and the other has one or two femal jacks. One is marked telephone the
other computer. Or if only one it is for a phone. Anyway make sure the phone
is in the right jack. As someone elese mentioned they are
This clears up the phone jacks and filters. Now, after hooking these up,
should the phone start working? Also, the build in phone and wireless is
all one unit. I'm thinking I'm going to need some sighted help. They want
an extra $119 for a tech to come out to hook it up, which I can't see
up.

I'd call them and ask for a home visit. There
should not be a charge. My parents did this, and it was a pleasant experience.

That is a combination router and modem. There is a place for a normal phone
line to go in the back, should be on one end. The other ports are for Ethernet
cables to plug in.
They probably also included a wireless card which is supposed to be installed
in a laptop, they assume you own one.
in brief, as was recently explained to me; the dsl comes in and is raw
wide band.
You go from the place where it enters the house to the box.
The dsl goes through unfiltered and remains wide band to any and all
computers except for dial ups that you may wish to use.
The phones get the other side
you can take the tool they give and connect the laptop with ease, or
you can go into the router and turn on encryption and right down the
key it gives you. Then all you have to do is plug in the info when
you click connect to the SSID that your router broadcasts.
you will have to use a cable
Hello Brice,
I have that very same router. Their support page is pretty good and I have
used their Network Magic software. The basic Network Magic is free and has
worked good. They also have online chat support from their web page which I
have used in the past.

Brice,
Yeah, it is possible. If you open your browser on your desktop and go to
192.168.1.1 you can log into your router. Then you can turn on the
wireless radio and set up some other things.
Make damn sure you change the password on the admin user. Also, change
the S I D to some other
I would suggest turning on wep or one of the other encrypted protocols. If you
don't, someone can easily snoop your trafic. This
will allow them to inpersonate one of your computers and get on your network
even if you have only a specific set of MAC addresses
allowed. WEP is not totally

Thanks Dan, maybe that's my problem. I just took it for granted
Terry, good catch, I forgot to mention the encryption. I like to use
shared keys and either generate a long random sequence of gibberish, or
use a long sentence as the shared key.
Later.

I'd like to make the recommendation that wpa2 be used since wep is not
as secure and in fact can slow a connection a bit. Just my experience
and most folks in the IT security business will recommend wpa2 as
well. Just my two cents worth.

You can use a mail set if the panels were nailed on with finish nails, which
have a small head with an indent on the top. A few raps with a hammer should
set them below the wood surface. If it is nail with a flat head common nail a
small flat ended punch can be used to countersink them.

Sounds like the paneling nails aren't nailed into a stud
You could try some sheet rock screws and sink them a little into the paneling
then fill in with a little wood puddy.
