Hi there,
Thanks for your call.

Below are the steps for resetting the IP address and re-flushing the firmware
for the router.

You can use Terminal emulation like HyperTerminal for the console.
You will need the Serial port at the back of your PC to be connected to DSL-500.
1    Click the Windows Start button, point to Programs, point to Accessories,
and then click HyperTerminal. The HyperTerminal folder opens.
2    Double click the Hypertrm.exe icon. HyperTerminal starts and displays the
Connection Description dialog.
3    In the Name field, type:
     DSL-500
     and click OK. The Connect To dialog appears.
4    In the Connect using field, select
     Direct to COM1 or COM2 depending on the COM number at the back of your PC.
If unsure, try both one after the other.
     and then click OK. The Com Port Properties dialog appears.

5    Select Bits per second = 9600, click OK.

Once you connect up via console (9600,8,N,1) successfully, press ENTER and you
should see the prompt like:
Once that is done, a blank screen shows up, press ENTER and you should see the
prompt like:
x.x.x.x>

Enter the commands below as shown below (please enter everything that is after
the prompt >):
x.x.x.x>ip device flush
x.x.x.x>ip subnet flush
x.x.x.x>ip route flush
x.x.x.x>ip ipatm pvc flush
x.x.x.x>ip nat delete ppp_device
x.x.x.x>ppp 1 disable
x.x.x.x>r1483 pvc none
x.x.x.x>config save
x.x.x.x>restart

 After those command , the system will reboot.  Then, you will see the
followings and continue with the
commands as shown below:
??:??:??:??:??:??>ip device add ethernet ether //edd 192.168.0.1
??:??:??:??:??:??>ip device add ppp_device ether //ppp/DEVICE=1 20.0.0.1
??:??:??:??:??:??>config save
??:??:??:??:??:??>restart
After reboot completes, continue with the followings if you are still not able
to access the router.

Set your PC's (to be used for recovering DSL-500) IP address to be 192.168.0.2
subnet mask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1. Restart your PC.
Once restart completes, install the upgrade/reload program downloadable from the
below link. Run to Upgrade the firmware of your DSL-500. (As long as it is
discovered, there is no changes needed on any IP settings in the upgrade
program)
Even if it already has the latest firmware, please upgrade it again. FOLLOW THE
INSTRUCTION CLOSELY!!

DSL-500 firmware is available under:
http://www.dlink.com.au/tech/drivers/files/routers/dsl500.htm

Run the file to extract. Then run SETUP to install firmware upload program for
DSL-500.
