Product FAQ

Will the device work with my Internet connection?

SBG3300 is designed to be compatible with major ISPs that utilize ADSL as a
broadband service. SBG3300 offers Ethernet ports to connect to your computer so
the device is placed in the line between the computer and your ISP. If your ISP
supports PPPoE you can also use the device, because PPPoE is supported by the
device.

Why do I need to use SBG3300?

You need an ADSL modem/router to use with ADSL line, SBG3300 is an ideal device
for such application. The device has 4 Ethernet ports (LAN ports) and one ADSL WAN
port. You should connect your computer to the LAN port and connect the ADSL line
to the WAN port. If the ISP uses PPPoE, you need a user account and password to
access the Internet.

What is PPPoE?

PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet; it is an IETF draft standard
specifying how a computer interacts with a broadband modem (i.e. xDSL, cable,
wireless, etc.) to achieve access to the high-speed data networks via a familiar PPP
dialer such as 'Dial-Up Networking' user interface. PPPoE supports a broad range of
existing applications and services including authentication, accounting, secure access
and configuration management. There are many service providers running of PPPoE
today. Before configuring PPPoE in the device, please make sure your ISP supports
PPPoE.
