1. Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the FBR-1461 ADSL2+ Modem/Router by LevelOne. Your new
router is an all-in-one unit that combines an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet
network switch to provide everything you need to get the machines on your network
connected to the Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.
The FBR-1461 router complies withADSL2+ standards for deployment worldwide and
supports downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Designed
for small office, home office and residential users, the router enables even faster Internet
connections. You can enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia applications such as
interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever
before.
1.1. Features
Express Internet Access - ADSL2/2+ capable
The FBR-1461 complies with ADSL worldwide standards. Supporting downstream rates of
8Mbps withADSL, the router is capable of up to 12/24 Mbps with ADSL2/2+, and upstream
rates of up to 1 Mbps. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also broadband
multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio
which are easier and faster than ever. The router is compliant with Multi-Mode standard
(ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3);
and G.dmt.bisplus (ITU G.992.5)
Fast Ethernet Switch
A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built-in with automatic switching between MDI
and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports, with auto detection allowing you to use
either straight or cross-over Ethernet cables.
Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection
The router supports PPPoA(RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483
encapsulation overATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516) and IPoA
(RFC1577) to establish a connection with an ISP. The router also supports VC-based and
LLC-based multiplexing.

Quick Installation Wizard
A web-based GUI and quick installation wizard help you easily install the FBR-1461. Enter
your ISP information and begin browsing the Internet immediately.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal
This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices
and PCs from many different vendors, and it makes setting up a network simple and
affordable. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity
networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this
feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net Meeting or MSN Messenger.
Network Address Translation
NetworkAddress Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such
as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many
application layer gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet,
E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.
Firewall
NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the
Internet, like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.
Domain Name System Relay
Domain Name System (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a
user-friendlyname such as www.Level1.com with an IPaddress. When a local machine sets
its DNS server to the router‘s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC
to this router is forwarded to the real DNS on the outside network.
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname.
This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. To use the service, you must first apply for
an account from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
The FBR-1461 provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You
get greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same
ISP account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for
the local computer. Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are
also provided.

3
Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority
by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or
management information move through the router ay lightning speed, even under heavy
load. The QoS features are configurable by source IP address, destination IP address,
protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass
through the router, to ensure P2P users do not saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing
doesn‘t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change
the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.
Virtual Server
You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The router detects an incoming
service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For example, you
can assign a PC in a LANto act as a Web server inside and expose it to the outside network.
Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is protected by NAT. ADMZ
host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the outside Internet network.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server
On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider
(ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCPserver allocates a range of client IPaddresses,
including subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local computers.
This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.
Rich Packet Filtering
This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering
packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.
Static and RIP1/2 Routing
An easy static routing table or RIP1/2 routing protocol supports routing capability.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
SNMP allows convenient remote management of the router.
Web-based GUI
Aweb-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. User-friendly and with on-line
help, it also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and
manage this product.

1.7. Reset to Factory Default
1. Recovery procedures for non-working routers (e.g. after a failed firmware upgrade flash):
Hold the Emergency/Failure RecoveryButton on the back of the modem in. Keep this button
held in and turn on the modem. Once the lights on the modem have stopped flashing,
release the Emergency/Failure Recovery Button. The modem's emergency-reflash web
interface will then be accessible via http://192.168.1.254/ where you can upload a firmware
image to restore the modem to a functional state. Please note that the modem will only
respond via its web interface at this address, and will not respond to ping requestsfrom your
PC or to telnet connections.
2. Recovery procedures for a lost web interface password:
After turning the router on press the Emergency/Failure Recovery Button on the back of the
modem, and hold the button in until all lights on the modem flash and it reboots with factory
default settings. The login will be reset to admin and the password will be reset to admin, and
the modem will be accessible via its default IP address at http://192.168.1.254/

1.8. Cabling
One of the most common causes of problems is bad cabling or ADSLline(s). Make sure that
all connected devices are turned on. On the front of the product is a bank of LEDs. Verify that
the LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify that you are using the proper
cables.
Ensure that all other devices connected to the same telephone line as your LevelOne router
(e.g. telephones, fax machines, analog modems) have a line filter connected between them
and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a
qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and
the right way around. Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can
cause problems with your ADSL connection, including frequent disconnections.

2. Installation
You can configure the FBR-1461 router through the convenient anduser-friendly interface of
a web browser. Most popular operating systems such as Linux, Mac and Windows
98SE/2000/XP/Me include a web browser as a standard application.
2.1. Before Configuration
PCs must have a properly installed Ethernet interface and connect to the router directly or
through an external repeater hub. In addition, PCs must have TCP/IP installed and
configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IPaddress that must be
in the same subnet as the router. The default IP address of the router is 192.168.1.254 and
the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC must be in the same subnet, and
have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253). The easiest way is to
configure the PC to obtain an IP address automatically from the router using DHCP. If you
encounter any problems accessing the router web interface you are advised to uninstall any
kind of software firewall on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the
192.168.1.254 IP address of the router.
Please follow the steps below for installation on your PC network environment. First of all,
check your PC network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network
adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating
system manuals.
