Overview
1. Overview
Congratulations on purchasing the Motorola® HH1620 Wireless VoIP Gateway.
The HH1620 includes both an 802.11b/g wireless access point and a 4-port Ethernet router. It
also enables up to two standard analog telephones to use digital telephone services over a
broadband Internet connection. The broadband connection can be any high-speed data
service through either:
A cable modem connected to coaxial cable from a cable television company
A DSL (digital subscriber line) modem connected to telephone wiring from a telephone
company
You can connect up to four computers or other Ethernet devices directly to the HH1620. By
adding hubs or other routers, you can expand your network up to the recommended
maximum of 16 connected devices.
The computers on the HH1620 network must:
Have a 10Base-T or 10/100Base-T Ethernet adapter
Be running Microsoft® Windows®, Macintosh® OS, Linux®, or UNIX®
So it is both wireless and wired, providing the foundation for a truly customized network full of
options.
Using the HH1620, you can share files, pictures, peripherals, printers and more with everyone
else on the network. By connecting a broadband modem (cable, DSL or other), you can also
share a single high speed Internet connection.
The HH1620 offers both the popular 802.11b wireless standard as well as the nearly 5-times-
faster 802.11g standard, providing you the ultimate in flexibility and speed. With Wi-Fi®
Protected Access (WPA™) included, your wireless connections are robust and secure, giving
you the security to communicate without fear that your signal might be compromised.
The HH1620 comes loaded with Performance Enhancement technology that accelerates your
wireless network and your fun. This new technology boosts wireless performance among
compatible Motorola devices up to 35% faster than over standard 802.11g networking.
Upgradeable firmware keeps the router’s control software up-to-date. The HH1620 captures
the latest technology in a package that stays current, protects your home network, and
provides you easy home network management.
