CHAPTER 1
Introducing the P-2812HNU-51c
1.1 Overview
The P-2812HNU-51c is a VDSL2 Integrated Access Device (IAD) that combines a
VDSL2+ router with Voice over IP (VoIP) communication capabilities. You may
access the Internet in one of these ways:
• You can have super-fast, secure Internet access over analog (PO TS) telephone
lines. The P-2812HNU-51c supports both Packet Transfer Mode (PTM) and
Asynchronous T ransfer Mode (ATM) and can be backward compatible with ADSL,
ADSL2 and ADSL2+.
• You can use an Ethernet WAN port for Internet access through the Ethernet
WAN connection.
• You can use 3G as your WAN and access the Internet via a 3G network.
The P-2812HNU-51c also allows you to use a traditional analog telephone to make
Internet calls. Y ou can use Quality of Service (QoS) t o efficiently manage traffi c on
your network by giving priority to certain types of traffic and/or to particular
computers.
Please refer to the following description of the product name format.
• “H” denotes an integrated 4-port hu b (swi tch).
• “N” denotes IEEE 802.11n wireless functionality . There is an embedded mini-PCI
module for IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN connectivity.
• “U” denotes a USB port used to set up a 3G WAN connection via a 3G wireless
card or share files via a USB memory stick or a USB hard drive. The P2812HNU-51c can also function as a print server with an USB printer connected.
Only use firmware for your P-2812HNU-51c’s specific model. Refer
to the label on the bottom of your P-2812HNU-51c.
Models ending in “1”, for example P-2812HNU-51c, denote a device that works
over the analog telephone system, POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service).
See Chapter 31 on page 395 for a full list of features.

Chapter 1 Introducing the P-2812HNU-51c
1.2 Ways to Manage the P-2812HNU-51c
Use any of the following methods to manage the P-2812HNU-51c.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the P2812HNU-51c using a (supported) web browser.
• SNMP. The device can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See the SNMP
chapter in this User’s Guide.
• TR-069. This is an auto-configuration server used to remotely configure your
device.
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the P-2812HNU51c
Do the following things regularly to make the P-2812HNU-51c more secure and to
manage the P-2812HNU-51c 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 y our password, you will hav e to reset the
P-2812HNU-51c to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier
configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the P-2812HNU51c. You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the P-2812HNU-51c
Here are some example uses for which the P-2812HNU-51c is well suited.
1.4.1 Internet Access
You can have up to eight WAN services over one ADSL, VDSL or Ethernet WAN
line. The P-2812HNU-51c cannot work in ADSL, VDSL and Ethernet W AN mode at
the same time.
24
Computers can connect to the P-2812HNU-51c’s LAN ports (or wirelessly).
You can also configure IP filtering on the P-2812HNU-51c for secure Internet
access. When the IP filter is on, all incoming traffic from the Internet to your
P-2812HNU-51c User’s Guide
network is blocked by default unless it is initiated from your network. This means
that probes from the outside to your network are not allowed, but you can safely
browse the Internet and download files.
1.4.1.1 DSL
Your P- 2812HNU-5 1c provi des shared Internet ac cess b y connecting the DSL p ort
to the DSL or MODEM jack on a splitter or your telephone jack.

1.4.1.2 Ethernet WAN
If you prefer not to use a DSL line and you have another broadband modem or
router (such as ADSL) availab le, y ou c a n push the DSL/WAN switch (on the rear
panel) to the WAN side and connect the WAN port to the broadband modem or
P-2812HNU-51c User’s Guide
25
Chapter 1 Introducing the P-2812HNU-51c
router. This way, you can access the Internet via an Ethernet connection and still
use the QoS, Firewall and VoIP functions on the P-2812HNU-51c.
Figure 2 Internet Access Application: Ethernet WAN
LAN
1.4.1.3 3G WAN
The USB port allows you to wirelessly connect to a 3G netowk to get Internet
access by attaching a 3G wireless card. You must leave the DSL or Ethernet WAN
port unconnected and attached a 3G wireless card to use 3G as your WAN. You
can also heve the P-2812HNU-51c use the 3G WAN connection as a backup. That
means the P-2812HNU-51c switches to the 3G wireless WAN connection after the
wired DSL or Ethernet WAN connection fails. The P-2812HNU-51c automatically
changes back to use the wired DSL or Ethernet WAN connection when it is
available.

1.4.2 VoIP Internet Calls
You can register up to two SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) accounts and use the
P-2812HNU-51c to make and receive VoIP telephone calls:
Figure 4 P-2812HNU-51c’s VoIP Application
Chapter 1 Introducing the P-2812HNU-51c
• Calls via a VoIP service provider (A ) - The P-2812HNU-51c sends your call to a
VoIP service provider’s SIP server which forwards your calls to either VoIP or
PSTN phones.
1.4.3 USB File Sharing
Use the built-in USB 2.0 ports to share files via a USB memory stick or a USB hard
drive (A ). You can connect one USB hard drive to the P-2812HNU-51c at a time.

1.4.4 Wireless Connection
By default, the wireless LAN (WLAN) is enabled on the P-2812HNU-51c. IEEE
802.11a/b/g/n compliant clients can wirelessly connect to the P-2812HNU-51c 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.

1.4.4.1 The WPS Button
You can use the WPS button on the rear panel of the device to turn the wireless
LAN off or on. You can also use it to activate WPS in order to quickly set up a
wireless network with strong security.
Turn the Wireless LAN Off or On
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 Press the WPS 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 WPS button for more than five seconds and release it. Press the WPS
button on another WPS -enabled device within range of the P-2812HNU-51c. The
WLAN/WPS LED should flash while the P-2812HNU-51c sets up a WPS
connection with the wireless device.
28
P-2812HNU-51c User’s Guide
Note: You must activate WPS in the P-2812HNU-51c and in another wireless device
within two minutes of each other. See Section 7.11.4 on page 175 for more
information.
1.5 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 you will lose all configurations that you had
previously and the password will be reset to “1234”.
1.5.1 Using the Reset Button
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the RESET button for
ten 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.
