Chapter 1
Getting To Know Your VDSL Router/Bridge
This chapter describes the key features and applications of your Prestige
.
1.1 Introducing the Prestige
The Prestige can be used for high-speed Internet access through a VDSL connection over the
telephone line. The Prestige supports data transmission speeds of 60 Mbps downstream and 34 Mbps
upstream. The actual rate depends on the copper category of your telephone wires, distance from the
central office and the type of DSL service you subscribe to. Its 10/100M auto-negotiating LAN
interface enables fast data transfer of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps in either half-duplex or full-duplex
mode depending on your Ethernet network. Your Prestige is easy to install and configure using the
System Management Terminal (SMT).
The standard your ISP supports determines the maximum
upstream and downstream speeds attainable. Actual speeds
attained also depend on the distance from your ISP, noise, line
quality, etc.
By integrating DSL and NAT, the Prestige provides ease of installation and Internet access. In the
Prestige product name, “H” denotes an integrated 4-port switch (hub).
Only use firmware for your Prestige’s specific model. Refer to
the label on the bottom of your Prestige.
The web browser-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) provides easy management.
1.2 Features of the Prestige
The following features make the Prestige a complete and the flexible networking solution for most
users.
High Speed Internet Access
The Prestige supports transmission speeds of up to 60 Mbps downstream and 34 Mbps upstream.
Actual speeds attained depend on ISP DSLAM environment, and how your prestige is configured.
Zero Configuration Internet Access
Once you turn on and connect the Prestige to a telephone jack, it automatically detects the Internet
connection settings (such as the VCI/VPI numbers and the encapsulation method) from the ISP and
makes the necessary configuration changes. In cases where additional account information (such as an
Internet account user name and password) is required or the Prestige cannot connect to the ISP, you
will be redirected to web screen(s) for information input or troubleshooting.
