Introduction
1.1 An overview of Mistral Lan Router ISDN
Mistral Lan Router ISDN provides fast Ethernet port for connecting to ADSL modem or Cable
modem. It allows all users in a local network to be quickly and easily connected to high-speed Internet
(via DSL or Cable service) using PPPoE. The ISDN Router is built-in and acts as a backup when the
DSL/Cable service fails or if the service is not available. In addition, Mistral Lan Router ISDN
supports remote ISDN dial-in and remote access.
Mistral Lan Router ISDN is a small desktop router that sits between your local Ethernet network
and a remote network (For example, the Internet or a remote office). It contains an ISDN S/T interface,
a 10 Mbps WAN port, four 10/100 Base-T LAN ports, and an auxiliary port for a directly connected
management console.
With Mistral Lan Router ISDN, users don’t need to worry about a shortage of IP address
resources. Dozens of network users can surf on the Internet simultaneously by using one ISP account
and a single IP address.
Sitting between your computer and remote network, the device acts as a firewall and protects your
computer from unwanted intruders.
Mistral Lan Router ISDN supports Bandwidth-on-Demand and Dial-on-Demand. Depending on
the data flow through an open B channel, the device will establish another B channel connection to
allow greater data throughput. This extra line will then be dropped again, once the demand decreases,
saving money on phone calls.

LAN such as an office or home network.
Connect an UTP Ethernet cable to this port when connecting to the
Internet or making other WAN connections
2.4 Cabling
Now you should be ready to connect your MISTRAL LAN ROUTER ISDN on your LAN and
WAN or ISDN jacks. Follow these steps to install:
• Connect the router from EWAN port to an ADSL/cable modem, or attach the ISDN line to the
ISDN connector (S/T interface).
• Connect the PC to the RJ-45 LAN connector. Two or more PCs can connect to a multi-port
Hub first and then uplink (cascade) port on the hub must be connected to LAN port.
• Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet and into the AC connector on the back of Mistral
Lan Router ISDN.
5
• The Auxiliary connector is only used to connect a terminal to run the Command Line
Interface using the null modem cable. (This is an optional connection.)
• There is a DIPswitch located on the rear panel for setting the terminating resistor.
You only need to adjust this switch if there are two or more external ISDN equipments attached to
the local telephone line.
