LINE port of the splitter with the RJ-11 port (the phone jack) on the wall.
2. Use another RJ11 cable（match the ZXHN H108N package）to connect
the MODEM (or ADSL) port of the splitter with the LINE port of the Gateway.
3. Use the third RJ11 cable（additional, if customers also want to use
telephone at the same time）to connect the telephone set with the PHONE (or
TEL) port of the splitter.
4. Connect Ethernet port of the Gateway with 10/100BASE-T port of the
computer using the network cable that comes with the modem.
5. Plug in the power cord, and turn on the power.
If you don’t want Internet services and telephone voice services simultaneously,
please just connect the LINE port of the Gateway with the RJ-11 port (the
phone jack) on the wall using a telephone cord. In this case, the splitter is not
necessary.

switch on the power of the ZXHN H108N equipment.
Checking all connection cables
Check all connection cables following the below procedure.
1 Check the ADSL cable connection
If the DSL LED is on upon power-on of the ZXHN H108N, it indicates that
the ADSL line is correctly connected (Generally it takes one to two minutes
to perform the ADSL connection).
2 Check the computer connection
If both the LINK LED on the computer adapter and the Ethernet LED of the
ZXHN H108N turn green, it indicates that the computer and the ZXHN
H108N equipment are correctly connected.
ZXHN H108N User’s Manual

Appendix A FAQs
1 All indicators are off after the ZXHN H108N equipment is powered on.
First make sure that you have inserted the power adapter of the ZXHN H108N into a working
power socket and that the ZXHN H108N has been powered on (the switch button is pressed
down). If the indicators are still off after confirmation of the above items, the hardware is
damaged probably. You may contact local operators for maintenance. Never dismantle the
equipment by yourself.
2 Will ADSL affect the telephone conversation quality? Will making phone calls cause a slow
online rate?
ADSL separates voices from data through the frequency division multiplexing technology.
Therefore, voices and data run in different paths without mutual interference. Neither the access
rate nor conversation quality will fall even if you are in a call and on line simultaneously.
3 Sometimes, the ADSL users cannot gain access to the Internet normally.
First check whether the ZXHN H108N is in the normal state (Check the indicators with this user
manual). If yes, the computer or application network may be faulty, which is unrelated with
ADSL. If the ADSL MODEM is abnormal, check the status of indicators one by one to remove
the fault.
You are suggested to first make sure the following items before seeking help from operators: 1.
The ADSL telephone cable connectors are proper; 2. The ADSL is away from the power cable and
large-power electronic devices; 3. No telephone extensions and fax machines are installed
between the ADSL incoming line and splitter; 4. The splitter has been correctly installed; 5. The
ADSL MODEM is of good heat dissipation.
4 Password verification failure.
MODEM synchronization and connection are normal. However, sometimes the password fails to
be verified.
1. Note that the account and password are case sensitive and some accounts contain a domain
name.
2. Virtual dialup software. It is possible that sometimes the virtual dialup software is faulty, or
conflict with other software in the operating system. At this time, you are suggested to reinstall
the dialup software or replace it with other software.
3. Network adapter drive program problem.
4. In arrears of fees. Pay the fee timely in this case.
5 What are reasons for ADSL synchronization failure (also referred to link down or link
establishment failure)?
ZXHN H108N User’s Manual
13
If the ADSL suddenly fails to be synchronized (link down) during application, usually the DSL
indicator of the MODEM will not be solid on. You are suggested for checkup in the following
sequence:
1. First check the quality of incoming cables and incoming cable connectors.
2. Install the ADSL Modem correctly based on the user guide, to minimize the number of taps.
3. Check whether the telephone cables and ADSL are in good contact or whether the telephone
cables are normal.
4. Try to disconnect the splitter and directly connect the ADSL Modem to the incoming customer
cable end to ensure that the problem is not due to improper installation or incoming customer line
quality. If the ADSL can be synchronized again, it means that installation of the incoming
customer part is improper. Please reinstall it according to the user guide.
5. If the ADSL still fails to be synchronized after the ADSL Modem has been connected to the
incoming customer cable end, contact the operators to check whether it is due to external line
failure or Modem failure.
6. If the splitter problem is determined, call the operators for maintenance or replacement.
7. The problem may be also due to the end office equipment fault of the operator. Call the
operator to confirm it.
8. Too long connection cable between the splitter and ADSL Modem may cause poor
anti-interference performance and synchronization difficulty. Therefore, the connection cable
should not be too long.
6 The authenticated user names and passwords cannot be re-authenticated?
This problem may be due to the following reasons:
1. Your account has expired or you are a defaulting subscriber (please pay the deficit sum).
2. You move into a new area. Because the account and the path PVC are bundled by some
operators, your previous account and password cannot be authenticated after you changed your
path.
3. One of your accounts has logged on successfully. Therefore, you will fail to be re-authenticated
because the operator has recognized the uniqueness of this account
4. Maybe you failed to deregister your account timely in the Broadband Access Server (BAS)
when you were off line abnormally, so the BAS or the billing system deemed that your account
was still available. Therefore, your re-login may fail because of uniqueness of your account You
are suggested to redial up later. If still failing, contact the operator for a solution.
