is made on a session that is not currently connected.
l PPP X: does not exist! This is displayed when a connect or disconnect attempt is
made on a session number that does not exist.
4.3 ADSL Page
The ADSL Status page shows the ADSL physical layer or link status. The information dis-
played 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.

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.
15
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 in-
stance, Router mode uses NAT which requires ALG support. PPP Half Bridge also ter-
minates 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.
