The TD-W8951ND connects to an Ethernet LAN or computers via standard Ethernet ports. The
ADSL connection is made using ordinary telephone line with standard connectors. Multiple
workstations can be networked and connected to the Internet using a single Wide Area Network
(WAN) interface and single global IP address. The advanced security enhancements, IP/MAC
Filter, Application Filter and URL Filter can help to protect your network from potentially
devastating intrusions by malicious agents from the outside of your network.
Quick Start of the Web-based Utility is supplied and friendly help messages are provided for the
