1.1 Overview
The XMG is an ADSL/VDSL2 bonding and high-performance wireless gateway that provides ultra-speed
VDSL Internet access for triple-play services and optimized HD IPTV services at home or office. This model
offers a Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) WAN with an interface using Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP), Ethernet
or DSL port. The XMG offers 2.4G and 5G Wi-Fi networks that operate simultaneously, providing a simple
and unified network management. The XMG has one USB port for sharing files via a USB storage device.
The XMG is also backward compatible with ADSL, ADSL2 and ADSL2+.
Only use firmware for your XMG’s specific model. Refer to the label on
the bottom of your XMG.
1.1.1 Internet Access
CHAPTER 1
Introducing the XMG
Computers can connect to the XMG’s LAN ports (or wirelessly).
You can also configure IP filtering on the XMG for secure Internet access. When the IP filter is on, all
incoming traffic from the Internet to your 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.
1.1.1.1 DSL
Your XMG provides shared Internet access by connecting the DSL port to the DSL or MODEM jack on a
splitter or your telephone jack. You can have multiple WAN services over one ADSL or VDSL. The XMG
cannot work in ADSL and VDSL mode at the same time.
Note: The ADSL and VDSL lines share the same WAN (layer-2) interfaces that you configure in
the XMG. Refer to Section 6.2 on page 68 for the Network Setting > Broadband screen.

1.1.1.2 Ethernet WAN
If you prefer not to use a DSL line and you have another broadband modem or router (such as ADSL)
available, you can convert LAN port number four as a WAN port using the Network Setting > Broadband
> Ethernet WAN screen and then connect the LAN port to the broadband modem or router. This way,
you can access the Internet via an Ethernet connection and still use the QoS, Firewall and parental
control functions on the XMG.

1.1.1.3 SFP
DSL
If you prefer not to use the Ethernet or DSL line, your XMG also provides shared Internet access by
connecting the Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver. SFP is also known as Fiber Optics
interface. The Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) WAN with SFP is a dual-personality design (GbE + Fiber) which
enables increased bandwidth and extended coverage. The XMG supports multiple VLANs over the SFP
WAN interface for triple play. To connect the SFP port use a Fiber Optic Module, also known as a miniGBIC transceiver, to a Switch or Router.
Figure 3 XMG’s Internet Access Application: SFP WAN
Chapter 1 Introducing the XMG
Note: You can only have Internet access through one of the ports (DSL, Ethernet or SFP) at a
time. Your XMG has WAN priority, and if you connect all ports simultaneously to a
successful internet access, only one WAN port interface will be active. The XMG will
prioritize SFP, then Ethernet, and last DSL.
1.1.2 XMG’s USB Support
The USB port of the XMG is used for file-sharing and media server.
File Sharing
Use the built-in USB 2.0 port to share files on a USB memory stick or a USB hard drive (B). You can connect
one USB hard drive to the XMG at a time. Use FTP to access the files on the USB device.

Media Server
You can also use the XMG as a media server. This lets anyone on your network play video, music, and
photos from a USB device (B) connected to the XMG’s USB port (without having to copy them to
another computer).

1.2 Ways to Manage the XMG
Use any of the following methods to manage the XMG.
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the XMG using a (supported)
web browser.
1.3 Good Habits for Managing the XMG
Do the following things regularly to make the XMG more secure and to manage the XMG more
effectively.
XMG3563-B10A User’s Guide
20
• 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, you will have to reset the XMG to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier
configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the XMG. You could simply restore your
last configuration.

1.6 Wireless Access
The XMG is a wireless Access Point (AP) for wireless clients, such as notebook computers or PDAs and
iPads. It allows them to connect to the Internet without having to rely on inconvenient Ethernet cables.
You can configure your wireless network in either the built-in Web Configurator, or using the WPS button.
Figure 7 Wireless Access Example
1.6.1 Using the WPS Button
Chapter 1 Introducing the XMG
Once the WiFi LED turns green, the wireless network is active. If the wireless network is turned off, see
Section 7.2 on page 86 for how to enable the wireless network on the XMG.
You can also use the WPS button to quickly set up a secure wireless connection between the XMG and
a WPS-compatible client by adding one device at a time.
To activate WPS:
1 Make sure the POWER LED is on and not blinking.
2 Press the WPS button for five seconds and release it.
3 Press the WPS button on another WPS-enabled device within range of the XMG. The WiFi LED flashes
orange while the XMG sets up a WPS connection with the other wireless device.
4 Once the connection is successfully made, the WPS LED shines green.
The WPS LED turns off when the wireless network is off.

6 Mark two holes on the wall at the appropriate distance apart for the screws.
Be careful to avoid damaging pipes or cables located inside the wall
when drilling holes for the screws.
7 If using screw anchors, drill two holes for the screw anchors into the wall. Push the anchors into the full
depth of the holes, then insert the screws into the anchors. Do not insert the screws all the way in - leave
a small gap of about 0.5 cm.
If not using screw anchors, use a screwdriver to insert the screws into the wall. Do not insert the screws all
the way in - leave a gap of about 0.5 cm.
8 Make sure the screws are fastened well enough to hold the weight of the XMG with the connection
cables.
9 Align the holes on the back of the XMG with the screws on the wall. Hang the XMG on the screws.
