How do I set up an ISP-Customized DSL modem router on the Aginet app?

DSL modem routers can connect to a phone/DSL cable or an Ethernet cable for Internet access. Before we begin, identify the cable type from the Internet source to determine the operation mode:

• For DSL cable (shown on the right, smaller in size, with 4 or 2 pins), use DSL Modem Router Mode
• For Ethernet cable (shown on the left, larger in size, with 8 pins), switch to Wireless Router mode

Guide for Setting up DSL Modem Router mode

Take Archer VX420-G2h as an example.

1. Connect your DSL line to TP-Link modem router’s DSL port.

2. Wait about 5 min till the DSL light solid on the modem router. Please try to reset the modem or contact your ISP to check the line issue if the DSL light is not solid on.
