Cisco 675/678 for Windows

These are the steps needed to make your Cisco 675 Connect to Znet. You will need to install your network card before you begin. If you have problems with your network card during the install please call 800-247-7285 for Megabit Service 24x7 Technical Support.

Make a serial connection to your Cisco router using Hyper Terminal. You must plug the black cable that came with your router into a comm port on the back of your computer.The other end plugs into the Management port on your router You also need to connect the yellow cross over cable from the router to the network port on the back of your computer.There is no default password for the router when you get it new (hit ENTER when it asks you for the password.)

Port settings for connection to router:

Port Speed: 38400
Data bits: 8
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None

All commands are followed by "enter"

set nvram erase

set ppp wan0-0 ipcp 0.0.0.0
set ppp wan0-0 dns 0.0.0.0
set ppp wan0-0 login yourusername@2z.net
set ppp wan0-0 password yourpassword
set ppp restart enabled
set nat enable
set dhcp server enable
set dhcp server pool 0 size 16

set dhcp server pool 0 sdns 64.61.233.3

write reboot
***1 "Set multicast forwarding disabled" may error out if you have an older CBOS version. Do not worry, the command is not required for your DSL to work
***2 We do NOT keep track of your router password. You are responsible to keep track of your own router password (pick something easy to remember, but not easy to guess. You may use the same password as your login name if you wish, however, Znet will still not be able to store or track this password for you. If you wish extra security, you can also "set password enable enablepassword" with a different password that is used to change settings in your router. AGAIN: DO NOT LOOSE YOUR ROUTER'S PASSWORD(S).
