I'm back! My DSL was rather simple to set up after all: 1. Wait for modem to arrive via UPS (took 1 day). 2. After service was initiated, according to the modem instructions, log on to http://192.168.1.1/. 3. Click on new profile and add username and password provided to me by ISP (CenturyTel). 4. Click connect and got connected. My network looks like this: DSL Modem (192.168.1.1) | | | DI-524 Router (192.168.0.1) | | ------------------ | | | | | | desktop(102) laptop(101) printer(100) -- Thu, 02 Aug 2007 11:49:37 -0500
