Introduction
1.1 Introducing the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router
Thank you for purchasing the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router. Your new router is an
all-in-one unit that combines an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet network switch to
provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet
over an ADSL broadband connection.
The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router complies with ADSL2+ standards for deployment
worldwide and supports downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1
Mbps. Designed for small office, home office and residential users, the router enables even
faster Internet connections. You can enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia
applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier
and faster than ever before.
The 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point
Protocol) over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or
routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with
your ISP. Your new router also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.
The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet
connection, the 11g Wireless ADSL2+ VoIP Router allows multiple users to have high-speed
Internet access simultaneously.
Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by
outside users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address
Translation (NAT), it also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming
data packets are monitored and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block
internal users from accessing the Internet.
