• Auto-detection of Internet Connection Method. In most situations, the
Wireless ADSL2+ Router can test your ADSL2+ and Internet connection to
determine the connection method used by your ISP.
• Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet (ADSL port) connection, the
Wireless ADSL2+ Router supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP Address is
allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.
Advanced Internet Functions
• Application Level Gateways (ALGs). Applications which use non-standard
connections or port numbers are normally blocked by the Firewall. The ability to
define and allow such applications is provided, to enable such applications to be
used normally.
• Port Triggering. This feature, also called Special Applications, allows you to
use Internet applications which normally do not function when used behind a
firewall.
• Port Forwarding. This feature allows Internet users to access Internet servers
on your LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
• Dynamic DNS Support. DDNS, when used with the Virtual Servers feature,
allows users to connect to Servers on your LAN using a Domain Name, even if
you have a dynamic IP address which changes every time you connect.
• URL Filter. Use the URL Filter to block access to undesirable Web sites by LAN
users.
• Scheduling. Both the URL Filter and Firewall rules can be scheduled to operate
only at certain times. This provides great flexibility in controlling Internet -bound
traffic.
• Logs. Define what data is recorded in the Logs, and optionally send log data to a
Syslog Server. Log data can also be E-mailed to you.
• VPN Pass through Support. PCs with VPN (Virtual Private Networking)
software using PPTP, L2TP and IPSec are transparently supported - no
configuration is required.
Wireless Features
• Standards Compliant. The Wireless ADSL2+ Router complies with the
IEEE802.11g (DSSS) specifications for Wireless LANs.
• Supports both 802.11b and 802.11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11g
standard provides for backward compatibility with the 802.11b standard, so both
802.11b and 802.11g Wireless stations can be used simultaneously.
• Speeds to 54Mbps. All speeds up to the 802.11g maximum of 54Mbps are
supported.
• WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key
sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are supported. WEP encrypts any data before
transmission, providing protection against snoopers.
• WPA-PSK support. Like WEP, WPA-PSK encrypts any data before
transmission, providing protection against snoopers. The WPA-PSK is a later
standard than WEP, and provides both easier configuration and greater security
than WEP.
• Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can
check the MAC address (hardware address) of Wireless stations to ensure that
only trusted Wireless Stations can access your LAN.
