1 Safety Precautions
Read the following information carefully before operating the device. Please follow
the following precaution items to protect the device from risks and damage caused
by fire and electric power:
Use volume labels to mark the type of power.
Use the power adapter that is packed within the device package.
Pay attention to the power load of the outlet or prolonged lines. An
overburden power outlet or damaged lines and plugs may cause electric
shock or fire accident. Check the power cords regularly. If you find any
damage, replace it at once.
Proper space left for heat dissipation is necessary to avoid any damage
caused by overheating to the device. The holes on the device are designed
for heat dissipation to ensure that the device works normally. Do not cover
these heat dissipation holes.
Do not put this device close to a place where a heat source exits or high
temperature occurs. Avoid the device from direct sunshine.
Do not put this device close to a place where is over damp or watery. Do not
spill any fluid on this device.
Do not connect this device to any PC or electronic product, unless our
customer engineer or your broadband provider instructs you to do this,
because any wrong connection may cause any power or fire risk.
Do not place this device on an unstable surface or support.

2 Overview
The Zhone 6738 provides wireless LAN and USB services. It is designed to provide
a simple and cost-effective xDSL Internet connection for a private Ethernet and
802.11b/802.11g/802.11n wireless network. The Router combines high-speed
xDSL Internet connection, Ethernet uplink, IP routing for the LAN and wireless
connectivity in one package. It is usually preferred to provide high access
performance applications for the individual users, the SOHOs, and the small
enterprises. The Router supports 3G WAN service.
The Router is easy to install and use. The Router connects to an Ethernet LAN or
computers via standard Ethernet ports. The xDSL connection is made using
ordinary telephone line with standard connectors. You can connect the Ethernet
interface of WAN to Internet with Ethernet cable for ETH uplink. Multiple
workstations can be networked and connected to the Internet by a single Wide
Area Network (WAN) interface and single global IP address. The advanced
security enhancements, packet filtering and port redirection, can help protect your
network from potentially devastating intrusions by malicious agents from outside
your network.
Network and Router management is done through the web-based management
interface that can be accessed through the local Ethernet using any web browser.
You may also enable remote management to configure the settings of the Router
via the WAN interface.

3.2.1 Choosing the Best Location for Wireless Operation
Many environmental factors may affect the effective wireless function of the DSL
Router. If this is the first time that you set up a wireless network device, read the
following information:
The access point can be placed on a shelf or desktop, ideally you should be able to
see the LED indicators in the front, as you may need to view them for troubleshooting.
Designed to go up to 100 meters indoors and up to 300 meters outdoors, wireless
LAN lets you access your network from anywhere you want. However, the numbers of
walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through limit signal
range. Typical ranges vary depending on types of materials and background RF
noise in your home or business.
3.2.2 Connecting the Device
Step 1 Connect the DSL port of the router and the Modem port of the splitter
with a telephone cable; connect the phone to the phone port of the
splitter through a cable; and connect the incoming line to the Line port of
the splitter.
The spliiter has three ports:
Line: Connect to a wall phone jack (RJ-11 jack)
Modem: Connect to the Line interface of the router
Phone: Connect to a telephone set
Step 2 Connect the LAN port of the router to the network card of the PC through
an Ethernet cable.
Step 3 Plug the power adapter to the wall outlet and then connect the other end
of it to the Power port of the router.
The followig figure displays the connection of the DSL router, PC, and telephones.

Figure 4 Connecting the DSL router
Note:
If you use 3G WAN service, connect the 3G USB data card to the USB port of
the router.
If you use the Ethernet uplink, connect the WAN interface that is defined to the
Internet with Ethernet cable.
The xDSL uplink, 3G WAN service, and Ethernet uplink cannot coexist.

4 PC Network Configuration and Login
4.1 PC Network Configuration
Each network interface on the PC should either be configured with a statically defined
IP address and DNS address, or be instructed to automatically obtain an IP address
using the network DHCP server. DSL router provides a DHCP server on its LAN and
it is recommended to configure your LAN to automatically obtain its IP address and
DNS server IP address.
The configuration principle is identical but should be carried out differently on each
operating system.
The following displays the TCP/IP Properties dialog box on Windows XP.

PPP Password: The correct password provided by your ISP.
PPPoE Service Name: If your ISP provides it to you, please enter it. If not,
do not enter any information.
Authentication Method: The value can be AUTO, PAP, CHAP or MSCHAP.
Usually, you can select AUTO.
MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. Sometimes you must modify this function
to access network successfully.
NAT Public IP Address: Transfer the IP address of the Lan port to the
specified WAN IP address.
Enable Fullcone NAT:. NAT is one where all requests from the same internal
IP address and port are mapped to the same external IP address and port.
Furthermore, any external host can send a packet to the internal host, by
sending a packet to the mapped external address.
Dial on demand (with idle timeout timer): If this function is enabled, you
need to enter the idle timeout time. Within the preset minutes, if the modem
does not detect the flow of the user continuously, the modem automatically
stops the PPPoE connection. Once it detects the flow (like access to a
webpage), the modem restarts the PPPoE dialup. If this function is disabled,
the modem performs PPPoE dial-up all the time. The PPPoE connnection
does not stop, unless the modem is powered off and DSLAM or uplink
equipment is abnormal.
PPP IP extension: If you want to configure DMZ Host, you should enable it
first.
MAC Clone: Use the specified MAC address, click Clone the PC MAC
address to get the specified MAC.
Use Static IPv4 Address: If this function is disabled, the modem obtains an

RFC3646, RFC4075, RFC 4272 etc. The router advertisement daemon
(RADVD) is running Linux or BSD systems acting as IPv6 routers. It sends

LAN periodically and when requested by a node sending a router solicitation
message. These messages are required for IPv6 stateless
auto-configuration.
