    (ITU G.992.5)). EWAN Besides using ADSL to get connected to the Internet, BiPAC 7800 offers its Ethernet port 5 as a WAN port to be used to connect to Cable Modems, VDSL, fiber optic lines and PON. This alternative, yet faster method to connect to the internet will provide users more flexibility to get online.
