Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction to your Router
The BiPAC 8800AXL is a fibre-ready ADSL2+ modem, an all-in-one advanced device integrating
Wireless-AC 1300Mbps, Gigabit Ethernet, 3G/LTE, and NAS (Network Attached Storage) in one
unit. As well as being IPv6-capable, the BiPAC 8800AXL ADSL2+ router supports super fast fibre
connections via dual-WAN connectivity through a Gigabit Ethernet WAN port. Also, it also has two
USB ports, allowing the device to act as a print server as well as a NAS (Network Attached Storage)
device with DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance). Moreover, the USB port can host a 3G/LTE
modem connecting to the 3G/LTE network for Internet access. With an array of advanced features,
the BiPAC 8800AXL delivers a future-proof solution for ADSL2+ connections, super fast FTTC and
ultra-speed FTTH (Fibre-To-The-Home) network deployment and services
Maximum wireless performance
The fifth generation of Wi-Fi technology, 11AC delivers incredible speed and whole-home coverage
- up to three times as fast as current "N" Wi-Fi. BiPAC 8800AXL integrates 802.11n and Wireless-
AC standards supports a date rate of up to 300 Mbps within 2.4GHz band and a data rate of
1300Mbps within 5GHz wireless band, meanwhile backwards compatible with 802.11a/b/g.
The Wireless Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP)
features enhance the level of transmission security and access control over wireless LAN. The
router also supports the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) standard, allowing users to establish a
secure wireless network by simply pushing a button. If your network requires wider coverage, the
built-in Wireless Distribution System (WDS) repeater function allows you to expand your wireless
network without the need for any external wires or cables.
3G/LTE mobility and Always-on Connectivity
With 3G/LTE-based Internet connection (requires an additional 3G/LTE USB modem plugged into
the built-in USB port), user can access internet through 3G/LTE, whether you are seated at your
desk or taking a cross-country trip. The auto fail-over feature ensures optimum connectivity and
minimum interruption by quickly and smoothly connecting to a 3G/LTE network in the event that you
ADSL/Fibre/Cable line fails. The BiPAC 8800AXL will then automatically reconnect to the
xDSL/Fibre/Cable connection when it is restored, reducing connection costs. These features are
perfect for office situations when a constant and smooth WAN connection is critical.
IPv6 supported
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed
IPv4. IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. This results from the use of a 128-bit
address, whereas IPv4 uses only 32 bits. The new address space thus supports 2
128
(about
3.4×10
38
) addresses. This expansion provides flexibility in allocating addresses and routing traffic
and eliminates the primary need for network address translation (NAT), which gained widespread
deployment as an effort to alleviate IPv4 address exhaustion.
IPv6 also implements new features that simplify aspects of address assignment (stateless address
autoconfiguration) and network renumbering (prefix and router announcements) when changing
Internet connectivity providers. The IPv6 subnet size has been standardized by fixing the size of the
host identifier portion of an address to 64 bits to facilitate an automatic mechanism for forming the
host identifier from Link Layer media addressing information (MAC address).
