NB5PLUS4 Quick Start Guide for Mac
Start Here
This Quick Start provides basic instructions for connecting your NB5PLUS4 to an Apple
Macintosh computer and to the Internet.
1. USB Installation.
2. Ethernet Installation
3. Modem Set-up
Before you can use this Quick Start Guide, you must have already established an ADSL service
with your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
These instructions provide a basic set-up configuration that should get home or small office Macs
up and running. This will be sufficient for most users.
If you need to perform more advanced configurations, please see the comprehensive User Guide on
the supplied CD-ROM for additional instructions.
NOTE: NetComm Technical Support for this product only covers the essential installation and
features outlined in this Quick Start Guide. For detailed information regarding the
advanced features of this product, please see the configuring sections in the
NB5PLUS4 User Guide on the supplied CD-ROM.
Connecting your NB5PLUS4
The NetComm NB5PLUS4 Modem can be connected directly to your Mac via an Ethernet or USB
interface.
Warning: Before you begin, turn the power off for all devices. These include your Mac and your
NB5PLUS4 Modem.
Do I need to use the MicroFilter?
MicroFilters prevent common telephone equipment – such as telephones, answering machines and
fax machines – from interfering with your ADSL service.
If you are using a telephone, fax machine, answering machine or any other equipment (other than
your NB5PLUS4 Modem) on your ADSL-enabled phone line, you will need to use one Micro filter
for each phone device.
