Preface
Thank you for placing your trust in this devolo product.
With the MicroLink ADSL Modem Router, you have purchased an ADSL router
that combines the functions and advantages of an ADSL modem, a switch
(hub) and a router in a single device. This combination makes it the optimal,
user-friendly network and Internet access solution for small-office and home-
office (SOHO) environments.
b
The router's ADSL modem provides satisfyingly fast Internet access:
Download speeds of up to 8 Mbps make transferring video material,
graphics and other high-volume data a pleasure.
With upload speeds of up to 1 Mbps, you can easily send large e-mail
attachments quickly and at low cost.
b
It also serves as an optimal combination of Internet-access router and
network switch:
The router simplifies the installation of Internet access significantly,
as no special drivers are required for the connected individual com-
puters. The access protocol has been implemented in the router
itself.
The router functionality lets multiple users access the Internet at the
same time. NAT and firewall functions protect your local network
against intruders. DHCP automates the TCP/IP configuration of the
connected computers. The router can be configured conveniently
using a Web browser.
The integrated switch is the foundation for small networks. Up to four
computers can be connected simultaneously. Each of the four ports
can also be used as an uplink port to connect additional routers,
switches or hubs.
