Innoband (Broadxent) BritePort DSL 8012-G1 Modem uses the most advanced “splitterless” Asymmetric DSL(ADSL) technology. Use this article to prepare your equipment for setup.
| Preparing your Equipment |
- Make sure your computer is turned off.
- Plug one end of the Ethernet cable to the modem marked Ethernet, and the other end into the NIC or Ethernet card on your computer.
- Plug one end of the telephone cable to the modem marked DSL line and the other end into a phone jack.
Important: Make sure all phone jacks being used by a phone device have the proper filters installed. The phone cord from the port marked DSL Line on the modem to the telephone wall jack must NOT have a filter on it. If a phone will be used in the Phone port on the device, it must be filtered.
- Turn on the computer.
- Connect the end of the power supply cord to the back of the modem and plug the other end in to an electrical outlet.

The Power, * DSL and LAN light on the front of the modem should turn green. The Internet Light will remain off until the device is configured for PPPoE authentication.
* Some 900 MHz phones and halogen lamps may interfere with a DSL signal. If you are using either of these devices, try unplugging them. Computer monitors and stereo speakers may interfere with a DSL signal. If your modem is on top of a monitor or speaker, try moving it. Some phones may cause interference even after installing filters. If your modem does not show a connection to EarthLink, try unplugging all the phones in your home, unplug your modem power cord and plug it in again, checking for a steady green light.
