Your Broadband Setup Guide

If you are using the ZyXEL router supplied by Gaelic Telecom then please read the instruction leaflet that came with the router pack.
  1. Install Filter
    Plug one end of the grey phone cable into the "DSL" socket on the back of the router and the other end into the Dual Filter on the side marked with the picture of a computer. This Dual Filter then connects into the phone socket on your wall. The Single Filters are to be connected to any other equipment that connects into the phone points in your premises, such as phones in other rooms or Sky digital etc.

  2. Connect Router
    1.
    Please connect the power supply to the router and switch the router on.
    2.
    If you are connecting using the blue USB cable then please make sure that you run the CD provided before plugging the blue USB cable in.
    3.
    If you are using the yellow ethernet cable then you do not need the CD provided. Please connect the yellow ethernet cable to your computer's ethernet socket and to the router's "LAN 10/100m" socket.
    4.
    If you are connecting using wireless, then get the computer to scan for available networks. The network name for this router (and its network key) are printed on a sticker underneath the router.

  3. DSL Highlights
    Note: if you are using your own router you need to make sure that your DSL light is constant
    The DSL light needs to be constant in order for you to get Internet access.

    1.
    If the DSL light is not on constant then please make sure that you have the filters connected correctly.
    2.
    If the filters are connected correctly and the DSL light is not on or is flashing then please bring your router to the main phone socket in the premises. Then plug one end of the grey phone cable into the "DSL" socket on the back of the router and the other end directly into the MAIN phone socket with no filters remember that all other equipment should be removed from the phone points in the premises and wait 5 minutes to complete the check.
If the DSL light is not on constant after trying the above then please call Technical Support
1890 92 90 03 or you can email.
