Your product is marked with this symbol, which is known as the
WEEE mark. WEEE stands for Waste Electronics and Electrical
Equipment. It means that used electrical and electronic products
should not be mixed with general waste. Used electrical and
electronic equipment should be treated separately.
This device is an Integrated Access Device (IAD) which combines high-speed fiber
optic (G-PON) Internet access, a built-in switch, wireless networking capability
and Voice over IP (VoIP) technology to allow you to use an analog telephone to
make phone calls over the Internet. The device also comes with one coaxial CATV
connector to connect to a television or set-top-box.
Please refer to the following description of the product name format.
• “H” denotes an integrated 4-port hub (swi tc h).
• “N” denotes IEEE 802.11n wireless functionality . There is an embedded mini-PCI
module for IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless LAN connectivity.
Only use firmware for your IAD’s specific model. Refer to the label
on the bottom of your IAD.
1.2 Managing the IAD
Use the IAD’s built -in W eb Configurator to manage it. You can connect to it using a
web browser such as Firefox 2.0 (and higher) or Internet Explorer 6 (and higher).
The web configurator gives you access to all the a vailable settings for t his product.
For details on connecting to it, see the Quick Start Guide.
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the IAD
Do the following things regularly to make the IAD more secure and to manage the
IAD 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.
IAD User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Introduction
• 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
IAD to its factory default settings. If you back ed up an earlier configuration file,
you would not have to totally re-configure the IAD. You could simply restore
your last configuration.
1.4 Applications for the IAD
Here are some example uses for which the IAD is well suited.
1.4.1 Internet Access and Device Mode
Your IAD provi des shared Internet access by connecting a fiber optic line provided
by your ISP to the PON port.
In hybrid mode, the IAD works as a router. You can enable NAT, firewall and use
Quality of Service (QoS) to efficiently manage traffic on your network by giving
priority to certain types of traffic and/or to particular computers.
If you have a router deployed in your network already, set the IAD to act as a
bridge. The routing features, such as NA T and static route are not avail able on the
IAD in bridge mode and QoS configuration is done remotely by the ISP’s OLT
(Optical Line Terminal). This allows you put the IAD into an existing network that
has a router with minimum configuration.

1.4.2 Internet Calls (VoIP)
You can register up to 2 SIP (Session Init iation Protocol) accounts and use the IAD
to make and receive VoIP telephone calls:
Figure 2 VoIP Applicarion
• Peer-to-Peer calls (A) - Use the IAD to make a call to the recipient’s IP address
without using a SIP proxy server.
Chapter 1 Introduction
A
• Calls via a VoIP service provider (A) - The IAD sends your call to a VoIP service
provider’s SIP server which forwards your calls to either VoIP or PSTN phones.
1.4.3 Wireless Connection
By default, the wireless LAN (WLAN) is enabled on the IAD. IEEE 802.11b/g
compliant clients can wirelessly connect to the IAD 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.

1.4.3.1 The WPS/WLAN Button
You can use the WPS/WLAN button on the top of the device to turn the wireless
LAN off or on. Yo u 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
1Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2Press the WPS/WLAN button for one second and release it. The WLAN/WPS
LED should change from on to off or vice versa.
Activate WPS
1Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2Press the WPS/WLAN button for more than five seconds and release it. Press the
WPS button on another WPS -enabled device within range of the IAD. The WLAN/
WPS LED should flash while the IAD sets up a WPS connection with the wireless
device.
Note: You must activate WPS in the IAD and in another wireless device within two
minutes of each other. See Section 7.10.4 on page 151 for more information.
1.4.4 Triple Play
Your ISP may provide “triple play” service to your IAD. This allows you to take
advantage of such features as broadband Internet access, Voice over IP telephony,

Chapter 1 Introduction
and streaming video/audio media, all at the same time with no noticeable loss in
bandwidth.
Figure 4 Triple Play Example
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
1Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2To 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.
