Figure 1-1: ADSL Bridge Router

ADE-3000 Features

ADE-3000 incorporates many advanced features, carefully designed to provide sophisticated functions for user’s convenience while surfing in the net.

Internet Access Features

· Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN (up to 253 users) can access the Internet through ADE-3000, using only a single external IP Address. (router mode).

· DSL Service Support. ADE-3000 has a RJ-11 port for connecting a DSL connection to provide Internet resource sharing feature. All popular DSL service providers are supported.

· Standard Compliance. ADSL-Compliant with ANSI T1.413 Issue 2, ITU G.992.1 (G.dmt) Annex A , and G.992.2 (G.lite).

Advanced Functions

· Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.

· DMZ. One (1) PC on your local LAN can be configured to allow unrestricted 2way communication with Servers or individual users on the Internet. This provides the ability to run programs, which demand for bi-directional communication.

· System Log & Internet Access diagnostics ADE-3000 implements system log and Internet access diagnostic help users to diagnose what could be wrong via system log or Internet access diagnostics.

· VPN Support. VPN (Virtual Private Networking) connections using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configuration is required.

LAN Features

w Dual Ethernet and USB ports. One (the Ethernet RJ-45 port) is used to

connect to your network adapter. The other (the USB port) can be connected to USB interface DSL/Cable router or directly with computer.

w DHCP Server support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a

dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. ADE-3000 can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN.

Configuration & Management

· Easy Setup. Use WEB browser from anywhere to begin the configuration.

· Remote Management. The ADE-3000 can be managed from any PC on your

LAN. And, if the Internet connection exists, it can also (optionally) be configured via the Internet.

Security Features

w Two-level password protected Configuration. Two-level password

protection can provided stronger protection to prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration data and settings.

w NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation)

technology is that by allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and even the existence of each PC is hidden. From the external viewpoint, there is no network, only a single device - ADE-3000.

Package Contents

The following items should be included:

· ADE-3000 Unit

· Power Adapter

· Quick Installation Guide

Button definition

Reset Button This button has two (2) functions:

· When pressed and released, ADE-3000 will reboot (restart).

· When reset button is pressed over 5 seconds and then release. ALL data will be clear and restore ALL settings to the factory default values.

Restore Default IP Address and Clear Password

If ADE-3000's IP Address or password is lost, the following procedure can be used to recover from this situation.

Pressing the Reset button for more than 5 seconds. ADE-3000 will restore to factory default setting. Note that this should be done only when you had tried all the troubleshooting options. Pressing the Reset button during operation may bring you into the risk of creating IP address conflict between your PC and the router. In such a case, you may be compelled to reboot your entire system(s).

Installation Procedure

Figure 2-1: Installation Diagram

Step 1

Choose an Installation Site

Select a suitable place on the network to install ADE-3000. Ensure ADE-3000 is powered OFF.

Step 2

Connect LAN Cables

Use standard LAN cables to connect PCs to the ETHERNET port on ADE-3000. Either 10BaseT or 100BaseT connections can be used.

PDF created with FinePrint pdfFactory Pro trial version http://www.fineprint.com

If required, use a standard LAN cable to connect the "Uplink" port to a standard port on another hub.

Step 3

Connect WAN Cable

Connect one end of the RJ-11 phone cord to the LINE port on your ADSL modem. Connect the other end of the RJ-11 phone cord to your wall phone jack.

Step 4

Power Up

Connect the supplied power adapter to ADE-3000 and power up. Use only the power adapter provided. Using a different one may cause hardware damage

Step 5

Check the LEDs

If there is no cable or wrong cable connected, LAN LED on ADE-3000 should flash in Red, then turn OFF. If it stays Red, there might be a hardware error.

For each LAN (PC) connection, the LAN Link/Act LED should be ON (provided the PC is also ON.)

Chapter 3

This Chapter details the first time login procedure and the Status screen

ADE-3000 contains an HTTP server. This enables you to connect to it, and configure it, using your Web Browser. Your Browser must have JavaScript support. The configuration program has been tested on the following browsers:

· Netscape V4.08 or later

· Internet Explorer V4 or later

Preparation

Before attempting to configure ADE-3000, please ensure that:

· Your PC can establish a physical connection to ADE-3000. The PC and ADE-3000 must be directly connected (using the ETHERNET port on ADE-3000) or on the same LAN segment.

· ADE-3000 must be installed and powered ON.

· If ADE-3000's default IP Address (10.0.0.2) is already used by another device, the

other device must be turned OFF until ADE-3000 is allocated a new IP Address during configuration.

Connecting to ADE-3000

To establish a connection from your PC to ADE-3000:

1. After installing ADE-3000 in your LAN, start your PC. If your PC is already running, restart it.

2. Start your WEB browser.

3. In the Address box, enter "HTTP://" and the IP Address of ADE-3000, as in this example, which uses ADE-3000's default IP Address:

http://10.0.0.2

4. If connection is established, a pop-up password request page will show up. The default login User Name of ADE-3000 administrator is “admin”, and Password is “conexant”. The default login User Name for non-administrator is “user”, and Password is “password”.

If you can't connect

Figure 3-1: Logon Window

If ADE does not respond, check the following:

· Machine is properly installed, LAN connection is OK, and it is powered ON. You can test the connection by using the "Ping" command:

· Open the MS-DOS window or command prompt window.

· Enter the command:

ping 10.0.0.2 If no response is received, either the connection is not working, or your PC's IP address is not compatible with ADE-3000's IP Address. (See next item.)

· If your PC is using a fixed IP Address, its IP Address must be within the range 10.0.0.3 to 10.255.255.254 to be compatible with ADE-3000's default IP Address of 10.0.0.2. Also, the Network Mask must be set to

255.0.0.0. See Chapter 5 - PC Configuration for details on checking your PC's TCP/IP settings.

· Ensure that your PC and ADE-3000 are on the same network segment. (If you don't have a router, this must be the case.)
