Caution
The NetComm NB100 must be installed and operated in accordance with
the instructions provided in this Quick Start Guide. Damage caused by
incorrect or careless installation is not covered by warranty.
Static Electricity
Computers are very sensitive to static electricity which may be
discharged by the user when the internal circuitry is touched. Ensure that
you have discharged any static prior to touching the computer’s PCI slots
and to removing the NetComm NB100 from its static bag, by touching an
earthed object first. This can be the computer’s Power Supply provided
the power is switched off at the wall, but the power cord is connected
to the power socket; static will be discharged through the power cord’s
earth connection.

Installing your Modem
Step 1 – Install the NB100 in your Computer
To install the NetComm NB100, you need to know how to remove the external case from your
computer and insert a PCI card. If you are unsure how to do this, consult your computer’s
documentation.
1. Ensure your computer is shut down with power off and power cable unplugged.
2. Take the cover off the CPU (central processing unit) and carefully insert the NB100
into an available PCI slot. Ensure the .’golden edge’. of the modem card is correctly
positioned so it marries correctly to the PCI slot.
3. Gently but firmly press the NB100 into the slot to ensure that it is correctly seated.
4. Plug one end of the RJ-11 telephone cable (supplied) into the matching socket on the
back the modem. Plug the other end of the cable into an ADSL-enabled telephone
outlet. If you wish to run a normal telephone from the same line, plug your telephone
into the Telecom Extension Socket however ensure that the telephone’s line is equipped
with an ADSL filter
5. Re-assemble your PC by slipping the external case back on. The hardware installation of
your unit is now complete.

YML783 Rev1
Do you need a Line Filter or Splitter?
Micro-filters are used to prevent common telephone equipment, such as phones, answering
machines and fax machines, from interfering with your ADSL service (and visca versa). If your
ADSL-enabled phone line is sharing a line with any other equipment then you will need to use one
micro-filter for each connected device.
Alternatively, ADSL Splitters may be installed with an ADSL line installation. Splitters separate the
ADSL and telephone service lines at the point they enter the building, meaning that filters will not
be required on each device. Splitters may only be installed by a qualified line technician.
Step 2 – Install the Modem Driver
1. After hardware installation is complete, power on your computer to start Windows
XP/2000. Windows will detect the newly-installed modem and a ‘found new hardware’
screen will appear. Click ‘Cancel’.
2. Insert the NB100 CD-ROM and allow the Auto-run wizard to start up. Then select
Auto-Install and click Next
3. Enter your Broadband ADSL Account User Name and Password
4. Re-enter password to confirm
At this point, installation is complete and you will be prompted to re-start. Click OK to confirm and
wait for your computer to re-start. This might take a minute.
NOTE: If in the unlikely event you need to establish a PPPoA connection,
rather than the standard PPPoE connection, choose Manual Install
instead of Auto Install, and browse to the PPPoA driver. Then follow
the instructions (below) for using the ADL Modem Analyzer Utility,
Configuration Tab, to select the PPPoA driver.

NB100 Modem Analyzer Utility
After the system has re-booted, you will notice that you have a desktop icon ‘ADSL Modem
Analyzer’ and an icon in the task bar.
NOTE: Windows XP Service Pack 2 will display a second System Tray
networking icon after restart. To disable this icon, double-click on it, then
click on Properties, then uncheck the box adjacent to ‘notify me when
this connection has limited or no connectivity.
The System Tray icon will be:
� red if no ADSL link is found
� yellow if a link is found and a connection is being initiated
� green when connected.
Double-click the System Tray or desktop icon to retrieve the ADSL Analyzer Utility main menu:
Click on Connect to initiate your Broadband session; this will retrieve the Windows Dial-up
Networking dialog box. Click Connect [your username and password having previously been
entered.]
Connection Status will change to Connected.
Now each of the main functions of the ADSL Analyzer Utility will be explained in turn.
