Multiple Virtual Connections
The Router supports multiple virtual connections. Up to eight PVCs to eight separate destinations can be created
and operated simultaneously utilizing the same bandwidth. Additional PVC connections can be added for various
purposes. For example, you may want to establish a private connection to remote office in order to create an
extended LAN, or setup a server on a separate connection. Provisioning for additional PVC profiles must be
done through your telecommunications services provider. Extended LAN operations employing multiple virtual
connections require ADSL routers or modems at the remote site for a successful connection. Contact your ISP or
telecommunications service provider if you are interested in setting up multiple virtual connections.
After the necessary arrangements have been made to use the Router with multiple virtual connections, follow the
instructions below to setup the Router using the VPI/VCI settings given to you by your server provider.
Configure Multiple PVCs
Additional PVCs can be configured by first accessing the WAN configuration menu in the Home directory.

The PVC pull-down menu offers 8 virtual connections available for configuration. The default VC used by the
Router is labeled Pvc0. Any additional connections that are configured must have a VPI/VCI combination that is
unique to the Router. These numbers will have been already been established by your service provider on their
network.
