Setup Wizard
Supports Setup Wizard Web GUI to install this ADSL router easily and quickly.
Multi-connection protocol support
Multi Protocol over AAL5 (RFC1483 / 2684)  Classical IP over ATM (RFC 1577)  VC and LLC Multiplexing  PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516)  PPP over ATM (RFC 2364)
Network Address Translation (NAT)
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows the translation of an Internet protocol address used within one network (for example a private IP address used in a local network) to a different IP address known within another network (for example a public IP address used on the Internet).
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
Universal Plug and Play is a standard that uses Internet and Web protocols to enable devices such as PCs, peripherals, intelligent appliances, and wireless devices to be plugged into a network and automatically know about each other. devices and PCs.
This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone
Dynamic DNS Support
With Dynamic DNS support, you can have a static hostname alias for a dynamic IP address, allowing the host to be more easily accessible from various locations on the Internet. You must register for this service with a Dynamic DNS client.
DHCP Support
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) allows individual clients to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a centralized DHCP server. The ADSL router has built-in DHCP server capability enabled by default. It can assign IP addresses, an IP default gate way and DNS servers to DHCP client s. It can also act as a surrogate DHCP server (DHCP Relay) where it relays IP address assignment from the actual real DHCP server to the clients.
Device Management
Web-based GUI Configuration / Management  Firmware upgrade via Web-based GUI  Built-in Diagnostic tool and IP Ping
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) Support
It’s an easy way to remote control the router via SNMP.
