1 Introduction to Ethernet Router
The ADSL Ethernet Router isoptimized toaddress the growing demand
for high-speed Internet access. With both a USB 1.1-complient interface
and an IEEE 802.3-complient Ethernet interface, it provides the widest
array of connectivity options without relaying on host PC drivers.
The ADSL Ethernet Router is an “always-on”high-speed broadband
connection to the internet. Using existing twisted-pair telephone lines,
ADSL technology provides data rates more than 100 times as fast as a
traditional analog modem, without an interruption in telephone service.
The ADSL Ethernet Router is fully compliant with the full-rate
ADSL(T1.413 Issue 2 and G.dmt) and the splitterless G.lite (G.992.2)
standards. With data transfer rates of up to 8 Mbps downstream and
1Mbps upstream.

3. Hardware Installation
Power on
Connect the Adapter to power inlet and turn the power switch on, this
product will enter a self-test phase. When it is in the self-test phase, the
indicators READY LED will be lighted ON for about 8 seconds, and the
READY LED will be flashed to indicate that the self-test phase has
finished. Finally,the READY LED will be flashed to indicate that router is
in normal operation.
ADSL connection
Simply plug one end of the cable into the ADSL port (RJ-11 receptacle) on
the rear panel of the Router and insert the other end into splitter .
Connect Router to LAN
Prepare an Ethernet cable to connect Router to Hub or Switch of your
LAN. You can connect Router to your PC directly by crossover Ethernet
cable.
