Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction to your Router
Thank you for purchasing BEC 7800 Router. Your new router is an all-in-one unit that combines an
ADSL modem, ADSL2/2+ router and Ethernet network switch to provide everything you need to
get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.
The BEC 7800 router complies with ADSL2+ standards for deployment worldwide and supports
downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Designed for small office,
home office and residential users, the router enables even faster Internet connections. You can
enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video
streaming and real-time audio much easier and faster than ever before.
The BEC 7800 supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) over ATM Adaptation
Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516)
to establish a connection with your ISP. Your new router also supports VC-based and LLC-based
multiplexing.
The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet
connection, the BEC 7800 allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access
simultaneously.
Your new router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from access by
outside users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network Address Translation
(NAT), it also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All incoming data packets
are monitored and filtered. You can also configure your new router to block internal users from
accessing the Internet.
The BEC 7800 provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IP addresses making
them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult for a hacker to target a
machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that
outside users can access. To ensure that games and other Internet applications run properly, you
can open specific ports for outside users to access internal services on your network.
The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow multiple
users to get IP addresses automatically when the router boots up. Simply set local machines as
a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the DHCP server and reboot.
Each time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it and assigns an IP address to
instantly connect it to the LAN.
For advanced users, Virtual Service (port mapping) functions allow the product to provide limited
visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. For instance, a dedicated web
server can be connected to the Internet via the router and then incoming requests for web pages
that are received by the router can be rerouted to your dedicated local web server, even though
the server now has a different IP address.
Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you can set the
router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible
IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from hackers.

Features
Express Internet Access
The router complies with ADSL worldwide standards. It supports downstream rate up to 12/24
Mbps with ADSL2/2+, 8Mbps with ADSL. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also
broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio
much easier and faster than ever. It is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2;
G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.lite (ITU G.992.2); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); G.dmt.bis.
plus (ITU G.992.5)).
EWAN
Besides using ADSL to get connected to the Internet, BEC 7800 offers its Ethernet port 5 as a WAN
port to be used to connect to Cable Modems, VDSL, fiber optic lines and PON. This alternative, yet
faster method to connect to the internet will provide users more flexibility to get online.
Fast Ethernet Switch
A 4-port 1000Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X.
An Ethernet straight or crossover cable can be used directly for auto detection.
Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection
It supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation
overATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a
connection with the ISP. The product also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
The BEC 7800 provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You get
greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same ISP
account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for the local
computer. Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal
This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs
from many different vendors. It makes network simple and affordable for users. UPnP architecture
leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and
data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, users can now connect to Net
meeting or MSN Messenger seamlessly.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
2
Allows multi-users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP
address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateway (ALG) are supported such as
web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This
dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. For example, to use the service, you must first apply
for an account from a DDNS service like http://www.dyndns.org/. More than 5 DDNS servers are
supported.
Virtual Server
Users can specify some services to be visible from outside users. The router can detect incoming
service requests and forward either a single port or a range of ports to the specific local computer
to handle it. For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN acting as a WEB server inside and
expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside web servers directly while it is
protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a local computer exposed to the outside
network, Internet.
Rich Packet Filtering
Not only filters the packet based on IP address, but also based on Port numbers. It will filter packets
from and to the Internet, and also provides a higher level of security control.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server
In the WAN site, the DHCP client can get an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP)
automatically. In the LAN site, the DHCP server can allocate a range of client IP addresses and
distribute them including IP address, subnet mask as well as DNS IP address to local computers. It
provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.
Web based GUI
It supports web based GUI for configuration and management. It is user-friendly and comes with online help. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and manage
this product.
Firmware Upgradeable
Device can be upgraded to the latest firmware through the WEB based GUI.

Cabling
One of the most common causes of problem is bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that all
connected devices are turned on. On the front panel of your router is a bank of LEDs. Verify that the
LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify if you are using the proper cables.
Make sure that all devices (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) connected to the same
telephone line as your router have a line filter connected between them and the wall outlet (unless
you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician),
and that all line filters are correctly installed in a right way. If line filter is not installed and connected
properly, it may cause problem to your ADSL connection or may result in frequent disconnections.

Chapter 3: Basic Installation
The router can be configured through your web browser. A web browser is included as a standard
application in the following operating systems: Linux, Mac OS, Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me/Vista,
etc. The product provides an easy and user-friendly interface for configuration.
Please check your PC network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network
adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating system
manuals.
There are ways to connect the router, either through an external repeater hub or connect directly to
your PCs. However, make sure that your PCs have an Ethernet interface installed properly prior to
connecting the router device. You ought to configure your PCs to obtain an IP address through a
DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same subnet as the router. The default IP
address of the router is 192.168.1.254 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC
must be in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253).
The best and easiest way is to configure the PC to get an IP address automatically from the router
using DHCP. If you encounter any problem accessing the router web interface it is advisable to
uninstall your firewall program on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the IP address of
the router. Users should make their own decisions on what is best to protect their network.
Please follow the following steps to configure your PC network environment.
