Figure 1: Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router
Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router Features
The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router incorporates many advanced features, care-
fully designed to provide sophisticated functions while being easy to use.
Internet Access Features
Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the
Internet through the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router, using only a single exter-
nal IP Address. The local (invalid) IP Addresses are hidden from external sources.
This process is called NAT (Network Address Translation).
Built-in ADSL2/2+ Modem. The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router has a
built-in ADSL2/2+ modem, supporting all common ADSL connections.
IPoA, PPPoE, PPPoA, Direct Connection Support. The Wireless
ADSL2/2+ Modem Router supports all common connection methods.
Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method. In most situations, the
Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router can test your ADSL and Internet connection to
determine the connection method used by your ISP.

Introduction

Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet (ADSL port) connection, the
Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Ad-
dress is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.
Advanced Internet Functions
Application Level Gateways (ALGs). Applications which use non-standard
connections or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to
define and allow such applications is provided, to enable such applications to be
used normally.
Special Applications. This feature, also called Port Triggering, allows you to
use Internet applications which normally do not function when used behind a fire-
wall.
Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on
your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
Dynamic DNS Support. DDNS, when used with the Virtual Servers feature,
allows users to connect to Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if you
have a dynamic IP address which changes every time you connect.
URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN
users.
Firewall. As well as the built-in firewall to protect your LAN, you can define
Firewall Rules to determine which incoming and outgoing traffic should be permit-
ted.
Scheduling. Both the URL Filter and Firewall rules can be scheduled to operate
only at certain times. This provides great flexibility in controlling Internet -bound
traffic.
Logs. Define what data is recorded in the Logs, and optionally send log data to a
Syslog Server. Log data can also be E-mailed to you.
VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking)
software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configura-
tion is required.
VPN Features
IPSec Support. IPSec is the most common protocol.
Easy Configuration. The configuration required to allow 2 Wireless ADSL2/2+
Modem Routers to establish a VPN connection between them is easy accom-
plished.
Wireless Features
Standards Compliant. The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router complies with
the IEEE802.11g (DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs.
Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11g
standard provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both
802.11b and 802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.
Speeds to 54Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps are
supported.
WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key
sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported. WEP encrypts any data before trans-
mission, providing protection against snoopers.

Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router User Guide
6
WPA-PSK support. Like WEP, WPA-PSK encrypts any data before transmis-
sion, providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later standard than
WEP, and provides both easier configuration and greater security than WEP.
Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can
check the MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that
only trusted Wireless Stations can access your LAN.
Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they can be
changed quickly and easily.
LAN Features
4-Port Switching Hub. The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router incorporates a
4-port 10/100BaseT switching hub, making it easy to create or extend your LAN.
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a
dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The Wireless
ADSL2/2+ Modem Router can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local
LAN and WLAN.
Configuration & Management
Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN for
configuration.
Configuration File Upload/Download. Save (download) the configuration
data from the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router to your PC, and restore (upload)
a previously-saved configuration file to the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router.
Remote Management. The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router can be ma-
naged from any PC on your LAN or Wireless LAN. And, if the Internet connection
exists, it can also (optionally) be configured via the Internet.
Network Diagnostics. You can use the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router to
perform a Ping or DNS lookup.
Security Features
Password - protected Configuration. Password protection is provided to
prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.
Wireless LAN Security. WPA-PSK, WEP and Wireless access control by
MAC address are all supported. The MAC-level access control feature can be
used to prevent unknown wireless stations from accessing your LAN.
NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)
technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the loca-
tion and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint,
there is no network, only a single device - the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router.
Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server re-
quests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from
external sources.
Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood
your Internet connection with invalid packets and connection requests, using so
much bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access becomes unavailable.
The Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router incorporates protection against DoS at-
tacks.

segment to which the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router is
attached (the same value as the PCs on that LAN segment).
DHCP Server
If Enabled, the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router will
allocate IP Addresses to PCs (DHCP clients) on your LAN
when they start up. The default (and recommended) value is
Enabled.
If you are already using a DHCP Server, this setting must be
Disabled, and the existing DHCP server must be re-
configured to treat the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router as
the default Gateway. See the following section for further de-
tails.
The Start IP Address and Finish IP Address fields set the
values used by the DHCP server when allocating IP Ad-
dresses to DHCP clients. This range also determines the
number of DHCP clients supported.
See the following section for further details on using DHCP.
