Additional Virtual Connections (PVCs)
The Router can use up to eight simultaneous PVC connections. These additional connections occupy the same
bandwidth used for ADSL service. Additional PVC connections can be added to establish a private connection to
remote offices or maintain a server accessible through the WAN port. Provision for additional PVC profiles must
be done through the telephone company or telecommunications services company. The remote user must have
suitable ADSL equipment for a successful connection.
Use the WAN Setup menu to add, delete or modify additional PVCs as described below.
