4.3 ADSL Page
The ADSL Status page shows the ADSL physical layer or link status. The information displayed on this page
is either inherent to the Router or set by the ADSL Central Office (CO) DSLAM, neither of which cannot be
changed by the user. This page contains information that is dynamic and will refresh every 2 seconds.
Restart/Stop Execute: It allows you to stop or restart the ADSL connection by selecting the appropriate
action and clicking Execute.
Showtime Firmware Version: It displays the ADSL data pump firmware version.
ADSL Line Status: It displays the ADSL connection process and status. The different states for this field
are as follows:
l Activation: The Router is in this state when it is attempting to start the activation process.
l Initialization: The Router is initializing handshake with the CO.
l Training: It is a part of the handshake process with the CO.
l Channel Analysis: It is a part of the handshake process with the CO.
l Exchange: It is a part of the handshake process with the CO.
l Down: It indicates that the ADSL connection is down.
l Showtime: It indicates that a connection has been established between the Router and the CO.
ADSL Modulation: It displays the ADSL modulation status, which can either be G.dmt or T1.413.
ADSL Annex Mode: It displays the ADSL annex mode, which can either be Annex A or Annex B.
ADSL Startup Attempts: It displays the number of ADSL connection attempts after loss of showtime. A
connection attempt is recorded only if showtime is attained.
ADSL Max TX Power: It displays the transmit output power level of the CPE (Customer Premise
Equipment), which is the transmit output power level of the Router.
ADSL CO Vendor: It displays the Central Office (CO) DSLAM vendor name, if available. If the Router is
not connected to an ADSL vendor, then ‘UNUSED_VENDOR_0’ will appear in this field.
Elapsed Time: It displays the time of the Router has been in operation. This is the amount of time the
Router is on, not the amount of time it is connected to the PC or in showtime status.
A table contained the information of SNR Margin, Line Attenuation, Errored Seconds, Loss of Signal,
Loss of Frame, CRC Errors, Data Rate, and Latency is also available.
SNR Margin: Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is the measure of signal intensity relative to the background
7
noise. The SNR Margin is the amount of increased noise that can be tolerated while maintaining the
designated BER (bit error rate). The SNR Margin is set by Central Office DSLAM. If the SNR Margin is
increased, bit error rate performance will improve, but the data rate will decrease. Conversely, if the SNR
Margin is decreased, bit error rate performance will decrease, but the data rate will increase.
Line Attenuation: Attenuation is the decrease in magnitude of the ADSL line signal between the
transmitter (Central Office DSLAM) and the receiver (Client ADSL Bridge/Router), measured in dB. It is
measured by calculating the difference in dB between the signal power level received at the Client ADSL
Bridge/Router and the reference signal power level transmitted from the Central Office DSLAM.
Errored Seconds: During Showtime, if any given second contains a CRC error, then that second will be
declared and recorded as an Errored Second.
Loss of Signal: Loss of signal refers to the ADSL Bridge/Router losing an ADSL signal, not the computer
losing a signal with the modem. Loss of Signal event is only recorded if the signal is lost while the ADSL
Bridge/Router is in showtime status. This field displays the count of ADSL signal loss events.
Loss of Frame: A frame is a unit of data in ATM. This field displays the count of ADSL frame loss events. A
Loss of Frame event is only recorded if the signal is lost while the ADSL Bridge/Router is in showtime
status.
CRC Errors: Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is a method for checking errors in data transmissions. This
field displays the number of transmit data frames containing CRC errors.
Data Rate: This field displays the ADSL data rate in kbps.
Latency: Latency, synonymously delay, is the amount of time it takes for a packet of data to get from one
designated point to another. This field displays the two mapping modes for latency (fast and interleaved).

Bridge Mode: Bridge Mode is used when there is one PC connected to the LAN-side Ethernet port. IEEE
802.1D method of transport bridging is used to bridge between the WAN (ADSL) side and the LAN
(Ethernet) side, i.e., to store and forward.
Router Mode: Router Mode is used when there is more than one PC connected to the LAN-side Ethernet
port. This enables the ADSL WAN access to be shared with multiple nodes on the LAN. Network Address
Translation (NAT) is supported so that one WAN-side IP address can be shared among multiple LAN-side
devices. DHCP is used to serve each LAN-side device and IP address.
When any settings are changed, please go to the Save Settings page to save the new
the Router is rebooted. If power is lost before saving, all new configurations since the last
save will be lost, even if they were submitted.

PPP Half Bridge: Although the Router mode is capable of terminating the PPP in the modem and hence
does not require PPPoE client software on the host PC, there are some disadvantages to Router mode
when only single-user support is required. For instance, Router mode uses NAT which requires ALG
support. PPP Half Bridge also terminates the PPP in the modem and does not require a PPPoE client on
the PC. However, PPP Half Bridge does not use NAT and is not limited by ALGs. PPP Half Bridge will work
with Ethernet interface to the PC.
Single-User Mode: Only one computer is connected at the LAN side through Ethernet.
Multi-User Mode: Multiple computers are connected at the LAN side through Ethernet.
5.2 WAN Configuration
The WAN configuration page allows you to set the configuration for the WAN/ADSL ports. Before you
enter the WAN Configuration page, you will be asked to select an adapter (PVC0 through PVC7) first.
Once you select the adaptor, then following page will appear.
Virtual Circuit: Select Enable to activate the current PVC configuration. The current PVC is displayed at
the top of the page in parenthesis. Default is Enabled for PVC0 and Disabled for PVC1-PVC7.
Bridge: Enable to connect the LAN to the WAN (bridge the two connections). This is available in Bridge
Mode only (see Table 5-2). Default is Disabled.
