1. Introduction

The PLANET 802.11g Wireless ADSL 2/2+ Router, ADW-4401v2, provides office
and residential users the ideal solution for sharing a high-speed ADSL 2/2+ broadband
Internet connection on a 54Mbps wireless network and a 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet
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 (RFC1483) to establish a connection
with ISP.
Via the user-friendly management interface, ADW-4401v2 can be managed by workstations running standard web browsers. Furthermore, ADW-4401v2 provides DHCP server, NAT, virtual server, DMZ, access control, IP filter, PPTP/IPSec/L2TP pass-through, DNS Proxy, DDNS, and UPnP capability.
The ADW-4401v2 also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from being accessed by outside users. It provides the natural firewall function (Network Address Translation, NAT). All incoming and outgoing IPs are monitored and filtered. Moreover, it can be configured to block internal users from accessing to the Internet.
1.1 Feature
Internet Access Features
Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the Internet through the ADW-4401v2 using only a single external IP Address. The local (invalid) IP Addresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called NAT (Network Address Translation).
Built-in ADSL 2/2+ Modem. The ADW-4401v2 provides ADSL 2/2+ modem, and supports all common ADSL connections.
IPoA, PPPoE, PPPoA, Direct Connection Support. Various WAN connections are supported by ADW-4401v2.
Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method. In most situations, the ADW-4401v2 can test your ADSL and Internet connection to determine the connection method used by your ISP.
Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet (WAN port) connection, the ADW-4401v2 supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.
Advanced Internet Functions
Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
Firewall. Supports simple firewall with NAT technology and provides option for blocking access from Internet, like Web, FTP, Telnet, SNMP, and ICMP.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) UPnP allows automatic discovery and configuration of the Broadband Router. UPnP is supported by Windows ME, XP, or later.
Dynamic DNS Support. DDNS, when used with the Virtual Servers feature, allows users to connect to Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if you have a dynamic IP address which changes every time you connect.
7
VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking) software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no configuration is required.
RIP1/2 Routing. It supports RIP1/2 routing protocol for routing capability.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). It is an easy way to remotely
manage the router via SNMP.
Wireless Features
Standards Compliant. The ADW-4401v2 complies with the IEEE802.11g (DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs. Maximum of 54Mbps are supported.
Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11g standard provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.
WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported.
WPA-PSK support. WPA-PSK_TKIP and WAP-PSK_AES encryption are supported.
Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can check the MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that only trusted Wireless Stations can access your LAN.
LAN Features
4-Port Switch. The ADW-4401v2 incorporates a 4-port 10/100BaseT switching hub, making it easy to create or extend your LAN.
DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other devices upon request. The ADW-4401v2 can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.

3 Configuration

3.1 Determine your connection settings
Before you configure the router, you need to know the connection information
supplied by your ADSL service provider.
3.2 Connecting the ADSL Router to your network
Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the ADSL 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, PPPoE+NAT, and PPPoA+NAT.
3.3 Configuring with Web Browser
It is advisable to change the administrator password to safeguard the security of your
network.
To configure the router, open your browser, type 'http: //192.168.0.1' into the address
bar and click 'Go' to get to the login page.
Save this address in your Favorites for future reference.
At the User name prompt, type 'admin'. And the Password prompt, type 'admin'. You
can change these later if you wish. Click 'OK'.
