General points: modem installation procedure This manual contains a detailed description of the procedure for installing the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100. Before beginning, deactivate any software that might disrupt the installation procedure, such as anti-virus products. We recommend that you follow the installation steps in order: Step 1: Connecting your product Refer to the chapter “Connecting the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100” on page 11. Step 2 (recommended): Checking your network configuration In order for the utilities (used to configure the modem) to work correctly and detect the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100, your computer and the modem must fall within the same addressing plan. If this is not the case, you have two options: •
Either you can change the configuration of your computer to give it an IP address compatible with the modem’s default address. Since the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100 is a DHCP server, you are advised to use a dynamic IP address, with your computer as a DHCP client. However, if you wish you can assign it a static IP address (e.g. IP address of 192.168.1.10 with the same subnet mask as the modem). To configure your network card, refer to the chapter “Configuring your computer” on page 32.
•
Or you can change the modem’s IP address using the detection wizard (with PC or Macintosh) supplied on the CD-ROM, to make it compatible with your computer's own addressing plan. Refer to the chapter “Changing the modem’s IP address” on page 44.
Step 3: Installing the utilities and establishing the Internet connection Refer to the chapter “Configuring the Internet connection” on page 13.

Recap of the modem’s utilities In addition to choosing your connection profiles, the utilities allow you to obtain information on your ADSL connection. They can also be used to identify and resolve issues you may encounter. Remember that problems may also be caused by the following: •
incorrectly configured computer (the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100 merely reveals the problem);
•
a connection problem (defective cable, plugs not inserted into ports properly, etc.);
•
a problem with the ADSL line (e.g. line not activated);
•
a problem with the service you are connected to (Internet Service Provider, use of a different profile, etc.).
This chapter will help you to identify and in most cases solve any issues yourself.
With Windows When the utility installation process is completed, an ADSL icon appears in the task bar.
ADSL Indicator
To check the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100 modem’s parameters and the connection status, rightclick on the icon to bring up a menu. •

The PC’s IP address must be within a range reserved for private networks. Indeed, your local network must not use addresses which are reserved for the Internet. This would cause problems when connecting your network to the Internet.
In case of uncertainty regarding these points, please check with a network specialist. 6. In the Subnet mask section, enter the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100’s default subnet mask value, i.e. “255.255.255.0”. 7. In the Default gateway section, enter the modem’s IP address. 8. Select the option Use the following DNS server addresses. You should preferably enter the modem’s IP address. By doing this, you are using the modem's Proxy DNS function to optimise navigation. You also have the option of entering the DNS server indicated by your ISP (for instructions on how to do this, refer to the documentation supplied by your ISP when you took out your subscription).
In the above example, the IP address and subnet mask assigned to the PC are compatible with the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100’s default IP settings (modem’s IP address: 192.168.1.1). 9. Click on OK to confirm the changes.

Changing the modem’s IP address Warning Note: if you are using Windows XP and Service Pack 2 is installed, the Wizard may not detect the modem. If this happens, your computer has a different addressing plan from the modem (e.g. 100.0.100.244) and the Windows firewall is enabled. When you install Service Pack 2, the firewall is enabled by default. There are two possible solutions: •
either you can change your computer’s IP address (assigning it a dynamic or static IP address that falls within the same addressing plan as the modem). In this case, you do not need to use the Detection Wizard. Refer directly to the section “Configuring your computer” on page 32.
•
or, if you absolutely want to change your modem’s IP address, you can temporarily disable the Windows firewall and assign the modem an IP address that is compatible with that of your computer. To do this, proceed as follows: 1. Click on start, Control Panel, and then on Security Center. 2. Click on Windows Firewall. 3. Select the option Off, and then click on OK. 4. Run the Detection Wizard again. Your modem should now be detected. Enter the modem’s new IP address, then click on Change. 5. Return to the Windows Security Center and re-enable the firewall to secure your network.
Using the Detection Wizard with a PC 1. Run the modem detection wizard on the CD-ROM. To do this, insert the CD-ROM into your PC’s drive. If the PC’s configuration allows, the installation programme will run automatically. Otherwise, run the programme autorun.exe located in the CD-ROM root directory. 2. Click on BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100, then select your language. 3. Click on Detection Assistant. The Wizard window appears.

4. In the Discovery Status section, if your modem is connected correctly, the message Found should appear.
5. In the Detected Device section, the following information is displayed: •
Device IP Address: this is the BeWAN ADSL Ethernet 100’s default IP address.
•
Network Interface and Subnet Mask: this section shows your computer’s IP address and subnet mask, which the Wizard has detected automatically.
6. If the modem’s IP address is not in the same addressing plan as the computer, in the New IP Address section, enter the modem’s new IP address. Click on Change to confirm the change.
Using the Detection Wizard with a Macintosh 1. Run the Detection Wizard on the CD-ROM. To do this, insert the CD-ROM into your Macintosh’s drive. 2. Double-click on the CD-ROM icon. 3. Double-click on the folder Ethernet, Detection Assistant, and then on the discover icon. The Wizard window appears. 4. The rest of the process is identical to that for the PC.
