Minimum Requirements
•One External xDSL (ADSL) or Cable modem with an Ethernet port (RJ-45)
•Network Interface Card (NIC) for each Personal Computer (PC)
•PCs with a Web-Browser (Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher, or Netscape Navigator 4.7 or higher)
Note
The WAN “idle timeout” auto-disconnect function may not work due to abnormal activities of some network application software, computer viruses or hacker attacks from the Internet. For example, some types of software send network packets to the Internet in the background, even when you are not using the Internet. This function also may not work with some ISPs. Please make sure this function works properly when you use this function for the first time, especially if your ISP charges you according to time used. Due to such issues, we cannot guarantee that the WAN “idle timeout” auto- disconnect function will work in all situations. In order to prevent an extra fee from being charged by the ISP, if your ISP uses such a fee structure, please turn off the router when you are finished using the Internet.
