solution for sharing a high-speed ADSL 2/2+ broadband Internet connection on one
Ethernet port and one USB port. It can support downstream transmission rates of up to
24Mbps and upstream transmission rates of up to 3.5Mbps. The product supports PPPoA
(RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and RFC
1483 encapsulation over ATM (MER, bridged or routed) to establish a connection with ISP.
Via the user-friendly management interface, ADE-3410 can be managed by workstations

accessed by outside users. It provides the natural firewall function (Network Address
Translation, NAT). All incoming and outgoing IPs are monitored and filtered. Moreover, it
can be configured to block internal users from accessing to the Internet.

are hidden from external sources. This process is called NAT (Network Address
Translation).

can test your ADSL and Internet connection to determine the connection method
used by your ISP.
