Device
Name
This field displays the current name of this device.
Device Mode Only the ADSL Modem component is operational.

Router - Both the ADSL Modem and the Router features are
operational. In this mode, this device can provide shared Inter-
net Access to all your LAN users. Also, by default, it acts a
DHCP Server, providing an IP address and related information
to all Wireless and LAN users.

Modem - Only the ADSL Modem component is operational. All
Router features are disabled. This device is "transparent" - it
does not perform any operations or make any changes to the
network traffic passing through it. You need to have a DHCP
Server on your LAN to provide IP addresses to the Wireless
clients using this Access Point.
After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a
few seconds. The menu will also change, depending on the mode
you are in.
Language Select the desired option from the drop-down list.
Notes:

Generally, you should NOT use modem mode. Only select this mode if you are
sure this is what you want.

After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a few seconds.
The menu will also be changed, depending on the mode you are in.

The Wireless Access Point can function in either Router or Modem mode. But
generally it is not a good idea to combine a Modem with an Access Point, because
all data received from the wireless stations will be sent over the modem connec-
tion. (Since the modem is transparent, it does not examine the traffic to determine
whether the traffic is for the LAN or the WAN.)
