If you do not have an existing router (modem only), connect your existing computer
equipment to the ETHERNET port (yellow) and connect a network cable from the
INTERNET port (blue) to your modem.
2. Connect the mains adapter to the Linksys device and then plug it into an electrical
power socket or UPS and switch on the power.
Alternatively, arrange a power source that
comes from the alarm panel or other 12v backup power supply
.
3. For initial setup, plug a telephone handset into the PHONE port (sometimes labelled
PHONE 1 on a two line ATA).
After initial setup is complete, you will connect your alarm
panel to this port
.
Configuring your Linksys ATA via IVR or Web Browser
Before attempting to configure your ATA, you should take the time to familiarise yourself
with the two different methods of communicating with it. The first method is to use the
Interactive Voice Response (IVR) System. Your ATA has the ability to detect digits dialed
from a telephone handset. When you’re ready, try the following:
Dial **** (do this even if you hear a busy signal or nothing at all)
You will hear a message - "Linksys configuration menu. Please enter option followed by
the pound key...", then enter 1 1 0 # on your phone.
You will now hear a message giving you the internal IP address of your device such as -
"192.168.0.5".
TIP: You will be asked to perform this step during the provisioning process, so you may
want to write the number down. Hang up the phone or experiment with other IVR options
shown towards the end of this document. Finding out and writing down the MAC address
would be a good experiment as this is also required during the provisioning process.
The second method is to access the device’s built-in web pages. Start up an internet
browser (Internet Explorer 4 or Firefox 1.0.7 or later) and type the internal IP address of
the device into the URL bar and depending on the model of your device, you should see a
web interface similar to one of the following:
