Re: XR500
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.

Please review the user manual and setup guide PDFs for installation and confiuration with ISP modems.

Re: XR500
There shouldn't be much you need to change on the router, it should detect what is needed through the setup wizard, have you gone through the wizard?
