How to Configure a 3347-ENT Modem for Qwest DSL

The Motorola 3347-ENT modem is a DSL modem provided by Qwest. A Digital Subscriber Line, or DSL, transfers data over phone lines and then uses a modem to convert that data to high-speed Internet. The only real configuration the Motorola---sometimes called Netopia---3347 modem needs to work with Qwest is to connect the wires and add the PPP username and password to the router. PPP stands for "point-to-point protocol" and is a connection type that requires a username and password.

Things You'll Need

• Ethernet cable
• Phone line
• Qwest username
• Qwest password

Instructions

1. Connect the phone line from the wall jack to the DSL port on the back of the modem.

2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the computer to one of the four LAN ports on the modem.

3. Turn on the modem.

4. Open a web browser, type "192.168.0.01" into the address line and press "Enter."

5. Click on "Quick Setup."

6. Enter the PPP username and password provided to you by Qwest.

7. Click on the drop-down menu next to the PPP username box, select "@qwest.net" and click "Apply."
