Important

Users of the B FLET'S Basic Course and B FLET'S Business Course should not refer to these instructions as those Courses have a Fixed IP address as standard; therefore ASAHI Net's Fixed IP address option cannot be applied for and special connection instructions (use of "f." before the User Name, etc.) do not apply.

Settings

By applying for ASAHI Net's Fixed IP Address Option, one (1) global Fixed IP address will be assigned to your Internet connection.

*1. If after applying for a Fixed IP Address Option the "f." prefix in not used, a dynamically assigned IP address will continue to be assigned to the connection.

Making an Internet connection

Important

Basically you will refer to instructions supplied by NTT with their equipment to make an Internet connection. The two factors that will determine the setup are 1. the type of equipment you received from NTT, and 2. the operating system of your computer.

What equipment did you receive?

Received a bridge-type ADSL modem?

Typical bridge-type ADSL modems provided with NTT's FLET'S ADSL services are: MN, MNII, MNIII, N, NII and S. With a bridge-type ADSL modem you will need to install PPPoE software into your computer. Please refer to the "What is your computer's OS (operating system)?" section below.

Received a VoIP router-type ADSL modem?

Typical VoIP router-type ADSL modems provided with NTT's FLET'S ADSL services are: MNV, SV and NV. These modems are easy to identify: they have a "V" for "VoIP" in their model name, and they have a "VoIP" lamp.

NTT may have sent you one of these ADSL modems because you told them you are wanting to use an IP-Phone service, like ASAHI Net's "IP-Phone-F" service. Please refer to the documentation received with the ADSL modem for how to configure it. You may also find the following configuration guides of assistance.

• MNV ADSL modem configuration
• NV ADSL modem configuration
• SV ADSL modem configuration
• SVIII ADSL modem configuration
• Web Caster 3000MV configuration

Received NTT's Webcaster VoIP-capable router?

Typically NTT will have sent you this if you already have an ADSL modem or media converter but also needed VoIP equipment so that you can use an IP Phone service like ASAHI Net's "IP-Phone-F" service. Please refer to the documentation received with the equipment for how to configure it. You may also find the following configuration guide of assistance.

• Web Caster V100 configuration
• Web Caster V110 configuration
• Web Caster V120 configuration
• Web Caster X400V configuration

Received NTT's CTU router?

Typically NTT will supply you with a CTU router if they have opened one of their FLET'S Hikari Premium lines for you. You will need to configure the CTU with your ASAHI Net connection User Name and password so that it connects to the Internet.

What is your computer's OS (operating system)?

Using Windows XP/Vista or Mac OSX (English or Japanese)?

PPPoE is built into the WindowsXP, Windows Vista and Mac OSX operating systems. Therefore you should not install NTT's Japanese-language FLET'S Connection Tool software or other PPPoE software. Please refer to these configuration guides.

• Windows 7 PPPoE Configuration
• Windows Vista PPPoE Configuration
• Windows XP PPPoE Configuration
• Mac OSX (10.1) PPPoE Configuration

Using a different English operating system?

If using English-language Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows 98, MacOS9 then you will need to install PPPoE software. Please refer to our Frequently Asked Questions page (link below) for more about how to get this PPPoE software and configure it. By the way, NTT's Japanese-language FLET'S Connection Tool software (supplied on their CD) will not work in an English OS - so please don't install it.

Using a different Japanese operating system?

If using Japanese-language Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows 98, MacOS9 then you will need to install NTT's Japanese-language "FLET'S Connection Tool" PPPoE software, found on the CD that NTT supply. You may find setup assistance on the following guides.

Using Your Own Broadband Router

Important

If using a FLET'S ADSL or B FLET'S line, your broadband router will need to be PPPoE (PPP Over Ethernet) and PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) compatible. If using a FLET'S Hikari Next line your router will need to be PPPoE and CHAP compatible. If you are unsure, please refer to the manufacturer's documentation for details.

ASAHI Net is unable to assist you with the setup of your own broadband router. Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation for setup instructions.
