1. Introduction
With growing network services such as HDTV, IPTV, voice-over-IP (VoIP) and Multimedia
broadband applications, and the demand of bandwidth rises quickly. The current Broadband
environment has not already accorded with needing; the FTTH (fiber-to-the-home) would be the
most promising NGN (Next Generation Networking) application to fulfill the demand.
The PLANET Wired / Wireless Internet Fiber Router, FRT-40x and FRT-40xN series, provides office
and residential users the ideal solution for sharing a high-speed fiber Internet connection and
four-10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet backbone. The Fiber Router is a perfect FTTH Digital Home Router
which can provide very high performance access to Internet, both downstream and upstream up to
100Mbps through the fiber interface. The PLANET Internet Fiber Router supports several common
optical connectors for WAN connection, such as 100BASE-BX, 100BASE-LX, 100BASE-FX and
Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP). The Fiber Router can be implemented easily for optical fiber
deployment.
With built-in IEEE 802.11b/g and 802.11n wireless network capability, the FRT-40xN series allows
any computer and wireless-enabled network device connect to it without additional cabling. New
802.11n wireless capability gives you the highest speed of wireless experience ever. With a
compatible wireless adapter installed in your PC, the files can be transferred at up to 300Mbps. The
radio coverage is also doubled to offer the high speed wireless connection even in a wide space of
your office or house.
To secure the wireless communication, the FRT-40xN supports most up-to-date encryption, WEP,
WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK. In order to simplify the security settings, the FRT-40xN supports WPS
configuration with PBC/PIN type for users to easily connect to a secured wireless network.
The PLANET Fiber Router provides QoS features to make the network services smooth. Traffic
priority can be assigned by the router to guarantee some important and specific transmissions,
especially for real-time streaming multimedia applications such as the on-line gaming, VoIP, and
IPTV to keep the bandwidth usage smoothly. Furthermore, the Fiber Router not only provides basic
router functions such as DHCP server, Virtual Server, DMZ, and UPnP, but also provides full firewall
functions including Network Address Translation (NAT), IP / Port / MAC Filtering and Content
Filtering. It serves as an Internet firewall to protect your network from being accessed by
unauthorized users.

3. Web Configuration Management
Determine your connection settings
Before you configure the router, you need to know the connection information supplied by
your service provider.
Connecting the Fiber Router to your network
Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the Fiber Router consists of more than simply
plugging everything together. Because the Router acts as a DHCP server, you will have to
set some values within the Router, and also configure your networked PCs to accept the IP
Addresses the Router chooses to assign them.
Generally there are several different operating modes for your applications. And you can
know which mode is necessary for your system from ISP. These modes are router, bridge,
and PPPoE+NAT.
