1. Introduction of Wireless Router For ADSL
1.1 Introducing the Wireless Router For ADSL
Wireless Router For ADSL is a high performance wireless LAN access point that complies with the IEEE 802.11b and 802.11g wireless standards, which can be used to provide mobile clients with wireless access to an Ethernet network.
The Wireless Router For ADSL supports Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition (ME), and Windows 98.
A wireless LAN provides the same functionality of a wired network, but it eliminates the need to install networking cables and other networking equipment. A wireless LAN is not only easier to deploy, but it also allows for mobility through “roaming.” For example, the Wireless Router For ADSL can roam from a conference room to an office without being disconnected from the network.
*Available features vary by region/country.
1.2 System Requirements
PC with the Operating Systems as follows: Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition (ME), or Windows 98 Second Edition
1.3 IEEE 802.11 Specifications
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) adopted the 802.11 standard for wireless devices operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band in 1997. This standard includes provisions for three radio technologies: direct sequence spread spectrum, frequency hopping spread spectrum, and infrared. Devices that comply with the 802.11
1.3.1 802.11b
In 1999, the IEEE modified the 802.11 standard to support direct sequence devices that can operate at speeds of up to 11 Mbps. The IEEE ratified this standard as 802.11b. 802.11b devices are backwards compatible with 2.4 GHz
802.11 direct sequence devices (that operates at 1 or 2 Mbps).
1.3.2
Also in 1999, the IEEE modified the 802.11 standard to support devices operating in the 5 GHz frequency band. This standard is referred to as 802.11a. 802.11a devices are not backward compatible with 2.4 GHz 802.11 or 802.11b devices.
802.11a radios use a radio technology called Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) to achieve data rates of up to 54 Mbps.
1.3.3
In 2003, the IEEE ratified the 802.11g standard. This standard delivers the same 54Mbps maximum data rate as 802.11a, yet it offers an additional and compelling advantage-backward compatibility with 802.11b equipment. This means that
802.11a
802.11g
standard operate at a data rate of either 1 or 2 Mbps.

802.11b client cards will work with 802.11g access points, and 802.11g client cards will work with 802.11b access points. Note that 802.11b products cannot be upgraded to support 802.11g since the 802.11g radios use a different chipset than
802.11b devices. However, 802.11g products and 802.11b products can work in the same network. Because 802.11g and 802.11b operate in the same unlicensed band, the two standards share the same three channels, which can limit wireless capacity and scalability.
An 802.11a device and an 11b/g device cannot communicate with each other.
The Wi-Fi standard certified at 2.4 GHz ensures the wireless interoperability with other Wi-Fi (802.11b) certified devices.
1.4 Security Standards
The Wireless Router For ADSL supports the following security standards (features vary based on models):
Cisco Client Extension compatibility (including LEAP)
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption using 64 bit, 128 bit or 152 bit
encryption
AES-CCM Encryption support
Support for Windows 802.1x supplicants
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption using PassPhrase (text string with
at least 8 to 63 characters, it can be any combination of letters, numbers and other characters).
