  • Page 4: Chapter 1 Introduction

    Chapter 1 Introduction This Chapter provides an overview of the Wireless ADSL Modem Router's features and capabilities. Congratulations on the purchase of your new Wireless ADSL Modem Router. The Wireless ADSL Modem Router is a multi-function device providing the following services: •...

  • Page 5: Advanced Internet Functions

    • IPoA, PPPoE, PPPoA, Direct Connection Support. The Wireless ADSL Modem Router supports all common connection methods. • Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method. In most situations, the Wireless ADSL Modem Router can test your ADSL and Internet connection to determine the con- nection method used by your ISP.

  • Page 6: Lan Features

    • WPA-PSK support. Like WEP, WPA-PSK encrypts any data before transmission, providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later standard than WEP, and provides both easier configuration and greater security than WEP. • WPA2-PSK support. Support for WPA2 is also included. WPA2 uses the extremely secure AES encryption method.
  • Page 7 • NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) tech- nology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and even the existence of each computer is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network, only a single device - the Wireless ADSL Modem Router.
