1.1 Overview

Ethernet
Bridge
The Device is an Ethernet integrated access device (IAD), which provides Voice over IP (VoIP) communication capabilities to allow you to use a traditional analog telephone to make Internet calls. By integrating all of these features, you are provided with ease of installation and high-speed, shared Internet access. The Device is also a complete security solution with a robust firewall based on Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) technology and Denial of Service (DoS).
When the Device does not have power, only the phone connected to the PHONE port 1 can be used for making calls. Ensure you know which phone this is, so that in case of emergency you can make outgoing calls.

Here are some example uses for which the Device is well suited.
1.2.1 Internet Access
If you have another broadband modem or router av ailable, you can connect the WAN port to the it. This way , y ou can access the Internet via an Ethernet connection and still use the QoS, Firewall and VoIP functions on the Device.
Computers can connect to the Device’s LAN ports (or wirelessly).

1.2.2 VoIP Features
You can register 1 SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) profile (2 accounts for that profile) and use the Device to make and receive VoIP telephone calls:
Figure 2 Device’s VoIP Application
The Device sends your call to a VoIP service provider’s SIP server which forwards your calls to either VoIP or PSTN phones.
1.2.3 Wireless Connection
By default, the wireless LAN (WLAN) is enabled on the Device. Once Wireless is enabled, IEEE
802.11b/g/n compliant clients can wirelessly connect to the Device to access network resources.
You can set up a wireless network with WPS (WiFi Protected Setup) or manually add a client to your wireless network.
Figure 3 Wireless Connection Application

1.3 The WLAN Button

You can use the WLAN ON/OFF button on top of the device to turn the wireless LAN on or off. You can also use it to activate WPS in order to quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.

Chapter 1 Introduction
Turn the Wireless LAN On or Off
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 Press the WLAN ON/OFF button for one second and release it. The WLAN/WPS LED should change
from on to off or vice versa.
Activate WPS
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 Press the WLAN ON/OFF button for more than five seconds and release it. Press the WPS button on
another WPS -enabled device within range of the Device. The WLAN/WPS LED should flash while the Device sets up a WPS connection with the wireless device.
Note: You must activate WPS in the Device and in another wireless device within two
minutes of each other. See Chapter 6 on page 113 for more information.

1.4 Ways to Manage the Device

Use any of the following methods to manage the Device.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Device using a (supported) web browser.
• FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore.

1.5 Good Habits for Managing the Device

Do the following things regularly to make the Device more secure and to manage the Device more effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password to access the Web Configurator, you will have to reset the Device to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Device. You could simply restore your last configuration. Keep in mind that backing up a configuration file will not back up passwords used to set up PPPoE and VoIP. Write down any information your ISP provides you.

1.6 LEDs (Lights)

The following graphic displays the labels of the LEDs.

1.7 The RESET Button

If you forget your password or cannot access the web configurator, you will need to use the RESET button at the back of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that y ou will lose all configurations that you had previously and the passwords will be reset to the defaults.
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 T o set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for 5 seconds or until
the POWER LED begins to blink and then release it. When the POWER LED begins to blink, the defaults have been restored and the device restarts.
