Smart Gateway DSL Router
Overview
Digital subscriber line (DSL) is the world's most prevalent broadband technology for residential and SOHO subscribers.
According to the DSL Forum, approximately 36 million DSL lines are now installed worldwide. DSL will continue to gain momentum as subscribers demand higher bandwidth and multiservice access (voice/ video/data).
Customer premises equipment (CPE) manufacturers have responded to the steady growth of the DSL market by developing new generations of routers that enable subscribers to connect a variety of computing and peripheral devices, such as desktop PCs, laptops, PDAs, printers and servers.
