DSL-G624M Wireless 108G MIMO ADSL2/2+ Router User's Guide

Introduction

This section provides a brief description of the Device, its associated technologies and a list of features.
Device Description and Operation
The DSL-G624M is designed to provide a simple and cost-effective ADSL Internet connection for a private Ethernet or
802.11g/802.11b wireless network. The Router combines high-speed ADSL2/2+ Internet connection, IP routing for the
LAN and Wireless 108G MIMO connectivity in one package.
The device is easy to install and use. The DSL-G624M connects to an Ethernet LAN or computers via standard Ethernet
ports. The ADSL connection is made using ordinary telephone line with standard connectors. Multiple workstations can
be networked and connected to the Internet using a single Wide Area Network (WAN) interface and single global IP
address. The advanced security enhancements, packet filtering and port redirection, can help protect your network from
potentially devastating intrusions by malicious agents from outside your network.
The D-Link DSL-G624M Wireless 108G MIMO ADSL2/2+ Router is an 802.11g high-performance, wireless router
that supports high-speed wireless networking at home, at work or in public places.
Unlike most routers, the DSL-G624M provides data transfers at up to 108 Mbps (compared to the standard 54 Mbps)
when used with other D-Link Wireless 108G MIMO and AirPlus Xtreme G Products. The 802.11g standard is
backwards compatible with 802.11b products. This means that you do not need to change your entire network to
maintain connectivity. You may sacrifice some of 802.11g's speed when you mix 802.11b and 802.11g devices, but you
will not lose the ability to communicate when you incorporate the 802.11g standard into your 802.11b network. You
may choose to slowly change your network by gradually replacing the 802.11b devices with 802.11g devices .
In addition to offering faster data transfer speeds when used with other 802.11g products, the DI-634M has the newest,
strongest, most advanced security features available today. When used with other 802.11g WPA (WiFi Protected
Access) compatible products in a network, the security features include:
ADSL
Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) is a broadband network technology that utilizes standard twisted-pair
copper wire telephone lines to enable broadband high-speed digital data transmission and bandwidth hungry
applications for business and residential customers. With the DSL-G624M you have the very latest in ADSL technology
thus future proofing your investment.
ADSL routers and modems provide faster downloads and more reliable connectivity to the user without loss of quality
or disruption of voice/fax telephone capabilities.
ADSL service operates at speeds of up to 8 Mbps downstream and up to 640 Kbps upstream. A secure dedicated point-
to-point connection is established between the user and the central office of the service provider.
ADSL 2 service operates at speeds of up to 12 Mbps downstream and up to 1 Mbps upstream.
ADSL 2+ service operates at speeds of up to 24 Mbps downstream and up to 1 Mbps upstream.
802.11g Wireless
The embedded 802.11g wireless access point provides Internet access and connectivity to the Ethernet for 802.11g and
802.11b wireless workstations. IEEE 802.11g is fully compatible with IEEE 802.11b wireless devices. The 802.11g
standard supports data transfer rates of up to 54 Mbps. The Router's wireless access point supports common security
protocols used for wireless LAN including WEP encryption, 802.1x and WPA.
