2-4  Firmware User Guide

Some of these selections will reset the defaults for the remaining options in this screen. You will be 
challenged to confirm your choice. The SDSL-HDLC and IDSL Line Types do not offer these choices.

The 

Data Rate Mode

 pull-down menu allows you to select either 

Hunt

 or 

Locked

 mode. 

If you choose 

Hunt

, the router will cycle through the speeds available and attempt to connect at the 

highest available speed. This hunt will take a few minutes. When a negotiated speed is determined, 
the router will remember that speed and use it as the star ting point for the next time a connection is 
attempted. 

If you choose 

Locked

, the Data Rate you select in the next menu will always be used.

The 

Data Rate

 pull-down menu allows you to select the data rate for your connection. This is usually 

assigned by your Ser vice provider.

Your 

Data Link Encapsulation

 may be either 

PPP

 or 

RFC1483

, as assigned by your Ser vice Provider.

If you are using PPP, the 

PPP Mode

 menu offers either 

VC Multiplexed

 or 

LLC SNAP

.

If you are using RFC1483, the 

RFC1483 Mode

 menu offers either 

Bridged 1483

 or 

Routed 1483

Bridged 1483 displays a 

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

 toggle item that can be toggled either 

On

 or 

Off
