Internet Access Features

•Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN can access the Internet through the Broadband Router, using only a single external IP Address. The local (invalid) IP Ad- dresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called NAT (Network Address Translation).

•ADSL & Cable Modem Support. The Broadband Router has a 10BaseT Ethernet port for connecting an ADSL or Cable Modem. All popular ADSL and Cable Modems are sup- ported.

•PPPoE Support. Connect to your ISP using PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet), if your ISP uses this method.

•Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the WAN connection, the Broadband Router supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.

Configuration & Management

•Easy Setup. Use your WEB browser from anywhere on the LAN for configuration.

•Remote Management. The Broadband Router can be managed from a workstation anywhere on the LAN, using a WEB browser.

Advanced Internet Functions

•Virtual Servers. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers on your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.

•User-Defined Virtual Servers. Internet users can access non-standard Internet Servers on your LAN by using this feature.

•Special Internet Applications. Internet applications such as Internet Videoconferenc- ing, Telephony, Games Servers, and other special-purpose Servers are supported.

•DMZ. One (1) PC on your local LAN can be configured to allow unrestricted 2-way communication with Servers or individual users on the Internet.

Security Features

•Configuration Data. Optional password protection is provided to prevent unauthorized users from modifying the configuration.

•Access Control Features. The LAN Administrator can limit Internet access by individ- ual PCs.

•Firewall Protection. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server requests are filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources. (This protection is lost if NAT is disabled.)
