When selecting the location for MT800, allow ample room to
access the connections on the rear panel. For convenience, try to
place the MT800 near your computer so you can monitor the LED
indicators. Allow some space above the MT800 for ventilation to
avoid problems with overheating.
2.2.1 Connecting ADSL Line
Use the twisted-pair ADSL cable (standard telephone cable)
packed with the MT800 to connect it to your telephone line. Simply
plug one end of the cable into the ADSL port (RJ-11 receptacle) on
the rear panel of the MT800 and insert the other end into the phone
jack.
2.2.2 Connecting the computer to MT800
Use a straight-through cable to connect your computer and
MT800. You can connect the MT800 directly to a 10/100Base-TX
Ethernet adapter card (NIC) on your PC with the Ethernet cable
provided as shown in this diagram.
