1. Introduction

The PLANET 802.11g Wireless ADSL 2/2+ Router, ADW-4401, provides office and residential users the ideal solution f Internet connection on a 5

4Mbps wireless network and a 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet

or sharing a high-speed ADSL 2/2+ broadband

backbone. It can support downstream transmission rates of up to 24Mbps and upstream transmission rates of up to 3.5Mbps. The product supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 2684 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with ISP.

Via the user-friendly management interface, ADW-4401 can be managed by workstations running standard web browsers. Furthermore, ADW-4401 provides DHCP serv

er, NAT, virtual server, DMZ, access control, IP filter, PPTP/IPSec

pass-through, DDNS, and UPnP capability. The ADW-4401 also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from b

accessed by outside users. It provides the natural firewall function (Network Ad Translation, NAT). All incoming and outgoi

ng IPs are monitored and filtered.

3 Configuration

3.1 Determine your connection settings

Before you configure the router, you need to know supplied by your ADSL service provider.

.2 Connecting the ADSL Router to your network

Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the ADSL Router co 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 applic can know which mode is necessary for your system from ISP. These modes are router bridge, PPPoE+NAT, and PPPoA+NAT.
