Cisco 675/678 Standard Config (CAP)

These instructions are intended for a Cisco 675 or 678 DSL router configured for CAP. If you have a DMT line, you will need to follow other instructions.

Setup for a Static IP Address

Attach your Cisco 675/678 DSL router to your computer using the serial management cable which was included in the box with your router from Qwest.

Use a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal for Microsoft Windows or ZTerm for Apple Macintosh) to connect to your router. You will need to use the following terminal settings:

        Baud Rate:      38400 bps
        Parity:         None
        Data Bits:      8
        Stop Bits:      1
        Flow Control:   None

The router will prompt you for a login password. If you have not set a password on this router before, then simply hit the Enter key.

At the "cbos>" prompt, enter "enabled mode" by typing the command "en". The router will prompt you for an enable password. If you have not set a password on this router before, then simply hit the Enter key. In enabled mode, the prompt changes to "cbos#".

Enter the command "set nvram erase" at the prompt to erase any current configuration and settings from the router's memory.

Enter the command "write" to write the empty configuration to the router's permanent memory.

Finally, enter the command "reboot" to restart the router.

After the router has finished restarting, connect and login into it again as above. Enter enabled mode.

Enter the following commands, one at a time, at the "cbos#" prompt. For the USERNAME and PASSWORD, use the DSL username and password which were given to you when you signed up for your ipHouse DSL account.

        set dhcp server enabled
        set dhcp server pool 0 dns 216.250.190.144
        set dhcp server pool 0 sdns 216.250.190.145
        set nat enabled
        set ppp wan0-0 ipcp 0.0.0.0
        set ppp wan0-0 login USERNAME
        set ppp wan0-0 password PASSWORD
        set ppp restart enabled
        set broadcast forwarding disabled
        set web disabled
        set password exec PASSWORD
        set rip disabled
        write
        reboot

After the router has finished restarting, you should be online with ipHouse.

You will need to configure your computer to obtain an IP address automatically, using DHCP. The Cisco router will act as a DHCP server, and assign your computer an IP address as needed.

If you plan on running a server on your computer which you want to be accessible to other computers on the Internet, then you will need to assign an unused static IP address within the 10.0.0.0/24 network to your computer instead, and add the appropriate NAT entries to your router.
