DSL Users: Enabling PPPoE
If your DSL provider requires “User Name & Password” authentication, you will need to
change your PPPoE configuration. (PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet.)
Be sure and check with your provider first to find out if changing your PPPoE
configuration is necessary.
DSL users who are not required to enter a User Name & Password as part of their
normal DSL experience should go directly to the basic installation instructions
shown on the previous pages.
1 Connecting
• Connect your computer to the Ethernet port on the back of the gizmo.
• Open a web browser and enter 192.168.0.1 into the url address field.
2 Enabling

•
Select "WAN Setup" on the left hand side of the screen.
Select "PPPoE" from the Connection Type drop down menu.
Enter the user name in the PPPoE Login Name field.
Enter the password in the PPPoE Login Password field.
Click the "Submit All Changes" button.
3 Begin Installing
• Once you have enabled PPPoE, please follow the appropriate setup instructions
for your gizmo installation.
• Please note, if you have a router you need to access your router’s configuration
and disable PPPoE and enable DHCP, or “Obtain IP address automatically.” See
your router manual for instructions.

Troubleshooting Tips
Having trouble? Try these simple tips. If these do not help, go
online to SunRocket.com/install or call us at 1-800-786-0132.
First, Check Cables and Connections:
1. Check that all your cables fit securely into the appropriate jacks.
2. Check all your power connections and that you are using the
correct power adapter that came with the gizmo.
(Power adapters vary.)
3. Confirm that the Ethernet cable provided by SunRocket is
connected between your modem and either your router or the
gizmo and that the Internet light is lit.
4. Check to make sure your telephone is plugged into the gizmo’s
PHONE 1 port and that the PHONE 1 light is lit.
5. If you are using a cordless phone, make sure it is fully charged.
Next, Try Power Cycling:
1. Physically disconnect the power cable from your modem. The
power needs to be off at least 2 minutes.
2. Shut down your computer, router (if you have one), and gizmo.
3. Plug in your modem and wait 60-90 seconds.
4. Plug in the gizmo and wait another 60-90 seconds.
5. Apply power to the router and wait 60-90 seconds.
6. Restart your computer.
7. Check for a PHONE 1 light, dial-tone, and Internet connection.
