Notes:
The P-660HW-T1 v2, is 4th generation of ZyXEL ADSL product family. It is a high
performance ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ router for small/medium office to have Internet
access and LAN-to-LAN application over the existing copper line. P-660HW-T1 v2 takes
advantage of much higher data rate than ADSL, speed up to 12Mbps (ADSL2) or 24Mbps
(ADSL2+), greater reach, faster start-up, advanced diagnostics and better power
management. This high performance ADSL router is a high integrated advanced Firewall,
Bandwidth Management and IEEE 802.11g wireless features to meet the demand of
high-end market.
P-660HW-T1 v2 provides an embedded mini-PCI module for 802.11g Wireless LAN
connectivity, four single auto-sensing, auto-detection 10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports for
connection to the user’s local network, and a single RJ-11/RJ-45 port for connection to
ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+ line.
1. Support Multiboot client V2.3
2. Support ADSL2+ by TrendChip modem code 3.10.9.0
Known Issues:
1．Set ATM QoS Type= VBR, Peak Cell Rate (PCR) =1000, Sustain Cell Rate (SCR) =
500, Maximum Burst Size (MBS) = 500, Test result it is not steady
2．Step1: set remote node 1 ATM QoS Type= VBR_RT, Step2: set remote node 2 ATM
QoS Type= VBR_nRT, Step3: set remote node 3 ATM QoS Type= CBR, Then the
priority remote node 1>remote node 3>remote node 2, (use one node with CBR and
two nodes with VBR_RT and VBR_nRT in any remote node will case priority
confusedly)
3．When set multi PVCs and to get Dynamic IP, the TriplePlay and IPRP function doesn’t
work properly
4．When DUT is power on and link up, if there are many multicast packets on the wan
sides, the DUT will reboot sometimes.
5．IOP issue with Intel 2200BG at WPA2 and WPA2-PSK Mixed mode.

6．Content filter show wrong warning message is caused by Kaspersky Anti-Virus
7．Remote F/W uploading failure under 256/256kbps line rate sometimes.
8．Enable triple play and igmp snooping, and turn on “ip mcast 0” to do IPTV both in lan
and wlan at the same time, device will crash sometimes when disable igmp snooping,
the probability is 60~70%
9．Enable triple play and igmp snooping, and turn on “ip mcast 0” to do IPTV both in lan
and wlan at the same time, when set IPTV application to group 3 (or group 4…), the
IPTV can’t broadcast.
