13 Setup the Device When installing the router, find an area where there are enough electrical outlets for the router, the main computer, and your other computer devices. NOTE: Different setup procedures are provided for both ADSL and Fibre subscribers. For ADSL Subscribers: For ADSL subscribers, please follow the instructions below in setting up your device: 1. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable from the router s Ethernet port and then plug the other end into the Ethernet port of your computer. Page 13 of 52

14 2. If you have another device that you need to connect into the router, use another Ethernet cable. Plug one end of an Ethernet cable from the computer s Ethernet port and then plug the other end into an available Ethernet port in the router. 3. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the DSL Microfilter s ADSL port and then plug the other end into the router s DSL port. DSL Microfilter Your phone line carries with it both phone calls and Internet signals. When you are using the Internet, the connection produces highpitched tones that can affect your voice calls when using the phone. Installing a DSL Microfilter separates the two signals and eliminates the noise. To setup a telephone on the DSL Microfilter: a. Locate the phone jack in your house. b. Insert the DSL Microfilter into the phone jack. c. Plug one end of the telephone cable from the DSL Microfilter s TEL port and then plug the other end into the telephone. 4. Connect the power adapter from the router s 19V 1.89A DC port into the power outlet. Page 14 of 52

15 For Fibre Subscribers: For Fibre subscribers, please follow the instructions below in setting up your device: 1. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable from the router s Ethernet port and then plug the other end into the Ethernet port of your computer. 2. If you have another device that you need to connect into the router, use another Ethernet cable. Plug one end of an Ethernet cable from the computer s Ethernet port and then plug the other end into an available Ethernet port in the router. 3. Using another Ethernet cable, plug one end of an Ethernet cable to the WAN port of your router, and then plug the other end to the available Ethernet port of your ONT. 4. Connect the power adapter from the router s 19V 1.89A DC port into the power outlet. Page 15 of 52

16 About the Web User Interface The Web User Interface is used to configure your router s settings. The Web User Interface also allows ADSL subscribers to configure and ready your internet settings for first use. Fibre Subscribers, however, need not to configure their Internet Connection method since these are already pre-configured in ONT devices and are loaded in your router once connected except for TM Unifi subscribers. NOTE: Fibre TM Unifi Home still requires a username and password to be keyed-in. Accessing the Web User Interface To access the Web User Interface: 1. Open your web browser. 2. Type-in on the address bar and then press Enter. 3. You will be prompted to enter a username and password for authentication. Type admin as its username and admin as its password then click Log In. 4. You will be redirected to the Web User Interface of your DSL8800GR(S) device. Page 16 of 52

17 Web User Interface Menu The DSL8800GR(S) Web User Interface includes the following menus: Quick Setup Local Network Configuration Device Status Statistics Applications Device Administration Some menus include several sub menus which would be discussed in the subsequent pages. Quick Setup This is the DSL8800GR(S) Web User Interface s initial page. You would automatically be redirected to this page once you access your router s Web User interface. It contains two sub menus: Quick Internet Setup Wireless Page 17 of 52

18 Quick Internet Setup Your router has an auto connection feature that automatically detects active connections on its Ethernet WAN and DSL port. Before proceeding, it is important to take note of the following: ADSL Subscribers are advised to consult their respective Internet Service Providers for the details of their internet connection access. Take note that it is important to ensure that you have followed the setup for ADSL subscribers. Fibre Subscribers, however, need not to configure their Internet Connection method since these are already pre-configured in ONT devices and are loaded in your router once connected except for TM Unifi subscribers. Page 18 of 52

19 This page easily allows you to determine or set parameters for the following: Connection Status. Displays the model of your router, the Basic MAC Address, its Serial No., and your router s Firmware Version. Connection Method. Allows you to set your router s method of connection.

35 Port Triggering Some applications require that the remote parties open the specific ports in the router s firewall for access. For instance, an application uses port 25 for requests and port 113 for replies. If a computer on the LAN connects to port 25 on a remote server hosting this application, using Port Triggering on the router, incoming connections to port 113 (from the remote server) could be redirected to the PC that initiated the request. A maximum of 32 Port Triggering entries can be configured. To add a new port triggering rule: 1. Select the interface to be used on the Use interface drop down list. 2. Key in the Application Name: You may opt to simply select an application from the drop down list provided or use a custom application name if the application you want to use is not included on the drop down list.
