CHAPTER 1
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The DSL-100HNU-T1 v3 is an ADSL2+ router which allows super-fast, secure Internet access over
analog (POTS) telephone lines. It supports Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). You can have ADSL,
ADSL2, ADSL2+ connections.
The Device integrates DSL and NAT for ease of installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. It
also provides a complete security solution with a robust firewall and content filtering. The product
name format indicates the following:
• “H” denotes an integrated 4-port hub (switch).
• “N” denotes IEEE 802.11n wireless networking support.
• “U” denotes a USB port used to set up a 3G WAN connection via a 3G wireless card or share files
via a USB memory stick or a USB hard drive. The Device can also function as a print server with an
USB printer connected.
Only use firmware for your Device’s specific model. Refer to the label on the bottom of
your Device.
1.2 Ways to Manage the Device
Use any of the following methods to manage the Device.
• Web Configurator. Use a (supported) web browser to manage the Device.
• FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore.
• TR-069. This auto-configuration server remotely configures your device.
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the Device
Do the following things regularly to make the Device more secure and to manage the Device more
effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different
types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.

Chapter 1 Introduction 10
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier
working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget
your password, you will have to reset the Device to its factory default settings. If you backed up an
earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Device. You could simply
restore your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the Device
Here are some example uses for the Device.
1.4.1 Internet Access
Your Device provides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to the DSL or MODEM jack
on a splitter or your telephone jack. Computers can connect to the Device’s LAN ports (or
wirelessly).
Figure 1 Device’s Router Features
DSL
LAN
Configure firewall and filtering features on the Device for secure Internet access. Set the firewall to
allow responses from the Internet for traffic initiated from your network and block traffic initiated
from the Internet. This blocks probes from the outside to your network, but lets you safely browse
the Internet and download files.
Use the filtering feature to block access to specific web sites or Internet applications such as MSN or
Yahoo Messenger. You can also configure IP/MAC filtering rules for incoming or outgoing traffic.
Use QoS to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving priority to certain types of traffic
and/or to particular computers. For example, you could make sure that the Device gives voice over
Internet calls high priority, and/or limit bandwidth devoted to the boss’s excessive file downloading.

Chapter 1 Introduction 11
1.5 Wireless Access
The Device serves as a wireless Access Point (AP) to let wireless clients such as notebook computers,
smart phones, and tablets connect to the Internet without Ethernet cables.
Configure your wireless network through the Web Configurator, or the WPS button.
Figure 2 Wireless Access Example
1.5.1 Using the WLAN/WPS Button
By default, the Device’s wireless network is enabled. To turn it off, simply press the WPS/WLAN
button on top of the Device for over 5 seconds. The WLAN/WPS LED turns off.
Use the WLAN/WPS button to quickly set up a secure wireless connection between the Device and a
WPS-compatible client by adding one device at a time. To activate WPS:
1With the POWER LED on steady, press the WLAN/WPS button for 1 second and release it.

Chapter 1 Introduction 12
2Within two minutes, press the WPS button on a WPS-enabled client within range of the Device. The
WPS/WLAN LED should flash while the Device sets up a WPS connection with the client.
3The WPS/WLAN LED shines green for a successful connection.
1.6 The RESET Button
If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, use the RESET button at the
back of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all
configurations that you had previously and the user name and password will be reset to the default.
1.6.1 Using the Reset Button
With the POWER LED on steady, press the RESET button for ten seconds or until the POWER LED
begins to blink and then release it. When the POWER LED begins to blink, the defaults have been
restored and the device restarts.
1.7 LEDs (Lights)
The following graphic displays the labels of the LEDs.
