Overview

The P-661HNU-Fx series are high performance routers which combine
high-speed ADSL Internet access, a built-in switch, a firewall and high­speed wireless networking capability. It also comes with a USB 2.0 port
that can be used for file sharing via a USB compatible storage device, or
inserting a 3G wireless adapter to access the internet through a 3G
network. The P-661HNU-Fx can also function as a print server.

Requirements

Make sure you have the following things before you start.

• Internet access - account information provided by your ISP, such as
user name, password, and so on.

• 3G account - if you want to access the Internet through a 3G
network. The P-661HNU-Fx uses this 3G connection as your WAN
or as a backup when the DSL connection fails.

• Internet Explorer 6.0 and later versions, with JavaScript enabled, or
Mozilla Firefox 3 and later versions or Safari 2.0 and later versions.
