Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction to your Router
The Billion BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 , a multi service VDSL2 (17a) Router. It features fibre-ready triple-WAN VDSL2 supports backward compatibility to ADSL2+ for a longer reach distance, an all­in-one advanced device including concurrent dual-band 802.11ac (5GHz) wireless speeds of up to 1800Mbps and 802.11n (2.4GHz) wireless speeds of up to 600Mbps, Gigabit Ethernet, 3G/4G LTE, and NAS (Network Attached Storage) in one unit. As well as being IPv6-capable, the BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 VDSL2 router supports super-fast fibre connections via a Gigabit Ethernet WAN port. It also has one USB port, allowing the device to act as a print server as well as a NAS (Network Attached Storage) device with DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) and FTP (File Transfer Protocol) access. Moreover, the USB port can host a 3G/4G LTE modem connecting to the 3G/4G LTE network for Internet access. With an array of advanced features, the Billion BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 delivers a future-proof solution for VDSL2 connections, super-fast FTTC and ultra­speed FTTH (Fibre-To-The-Home) network deployment and services.
Very High-speed Connectivity for Internet Access
The BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 complies with VDSL2 and ADSL2+ worldwide standards and it can support the downlink data rate of up to 100Mbps and uplink data rate of up to 50Mbps in VDSL2. It’s also integrated with 4-port 10/100/1000Mbps switch, 1-port Gigabit switch, and 802.11n wireless AP, enabling users to connect to multiple computers or devices easily.
Maximum Performance Dual-band Wi-Fi Router
Featured with simultaneous dual-band technology, the BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 can run both
2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands at the same time, offering ultra-fast wireless speeds of up to 2400Mbps and multiple SSIDs on both bands. The BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400, by adopting this state­of-the-art technology, allows for multiple-demand applications, such as streaming HD videos and multiplayer gaming simultaneously. The Wireless Protected Access (WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) features enhance the level of transmission security and access control over wireless LAN. The router also supports the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) standard, allowing users to establish a secure wireless network by simply pushing a button. If your network requires wider coverage, the built-in Wireless Distribution System (WDS) repeater function allows you to expand your wireless network without the need for any external wires or cables.
3G/4G LTE Mobility and Always-on Connectivity
With 3G/LTE-based Internet connection (requires an additional 3G/LTE USB modem), communication via the BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 is becoming more convenient and widely available ­allowing you to watch movies, download music on the road, or access e-mail no matter where you are. You can even share your Internet connection with others, no matter if you're in a meeting, or speeding across the country on a train. The auto fail-over feature ensures optimum connectivity and minimum interruption by quickly and smoothly connecting to a 3G/4G LTE network in the event that you xDSL/Fibre/Cable line fails. The BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 will then automatically reconnect to the ADSL/Fibre/Cable connection when it is restored, reducing connection costs. These features are perfect for office situations when a constant and smooth WAN connection is critical.
2
Secure VPN Connections
The BiPAC 8900AX(L)-2400 supports all currently popular secure VPNs, including embedded IPSec VPN, PPTP, L2TP, GRE, which satisfies different users’ needs, allowing users to establish encrypted private connections over the Internet with your optimum VPN options. You can access your corporate Intranet and transmit sensitive data between branch offices and remote sites anytime; even when you are out of office, thus enhancing productivity.
IPv6 supported
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed IPv4. IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. This result
s from the use of a 128-bit
address, whereas IPv4 uses only 32 bits. The new address space thus supports 2
128
(about
3.4×1038) addresses. This expansion provides flexibility in allocating addresses and routing traffic and eliminates the primary need for network address translation (NAT), which gained widespread deployment as an effort to alleviate IPv4 address exhaustion.
IPv6 also implements new features that simplify aspects of address assignment (stateless address autoconfiguration) and network renumbering (prefix and router announcements) when changing Internet connectivity providers. The IPv6 subnet size has been standardized by fixing the size of the host identifier portion of an address to 64 bits to facilitate an automatic mechanism for forming the host identifier from Link Layer media addressing information (MAC address).
Virtual AP
A “Virtual Access Point” is a logical entity that exists within a physical Access Point (AP). When a single physical AP supports multiple “Virtual APs”, each Virtual AP appears to stations (STAs) to be an independent physical AP, even though only a single physical AP is present. For example, multiple Virtual APs might exist within a single physical AP, each advertising a distinct SSID and capability set. Alternatively, multiple Virtual APs might advertise the same SSID but a different capability set – allowing access to be provided via Web Portal, WEP, and WPA simultaneously. Where APs are shared by multiple providers, Virtual APs provide each provider with separate authentication and accounting data for their users, as well as diagnostic information, without sharing sensitive management traffic or data between providers. You can enable the virtual AP.
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.

12
Cabling
One of the most common causes of problems 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 all lit. If they are not, verify if you are using the proper cables. If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In this case, you should contact technical support.
Make sure you have a line filter with all devices (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) connected to the same telephone line and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the right way around. Missing line filters or line filters installed the wrong way around can cause problems with your ADSL connection, including causing frequent disconnections. If you have a back-to-base alarm system you should contact your security provider for a technician to make any necessary changes.
13
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 7 / XP / 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.
Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through this router. To configure other types of workstations, please consult your manufacturer documentation.
