XR500
Can I connect my XR500 to my internet if I have DSL internet? If so could someone tell me how to do it. Please I’m struggling here.
the XR500 is a router only. Not a dsl modem.
so you'd first need a dsl modem.
then you'd want that device in passthrough/modem only mode.
And then you'd connect the xr500 to that.
many dsl modems include an integrated router. Its becoming rare to find just a dsl modem only.
Again, you'd want the router portion of the dsl device disabled or you'd run into double nat issues.
