Summary of services

Physical media

To use the G250/G350 as the endpoint device for a WAN, install a WAN media module and connect the WAN line to a port on the media module. When you connect a WAN line to a media module, the G250/G350 serves as the router for the WAN line.

You can also use the fixed ETH WAN Fast Ethernet port as a WAN endpoint by configuring the port’s interface for PPPoE encapsulation (ADSL modem) or Ethernet-DHCP/static IP (cable modem).

To use the G250/G350 as a router, connect the external endpoint device to the fixed WAN port on the G250/G350 front panel using a standard network cable. See G250 physical description on page 15 and G350 physical description on page 19 for the location of the WAN port on the G250 and G350 front panels.

You can also use the fixed WAN port to connect a computer or other endpoint data device to the G250/G350.
