“DSL” on page 54 “ATM” on page 55 “Ethernet” on page 55 “IP” on page 55 “LAN” on page 55 “Wireless” on page 56 “Logs” on page 56

These screens will vary depending on your Gateway’s model and traffic activity.

DSL

When you click DSL, the DSL Statistics page appears.

The DSL Statistics page displays information about the Gateway's WAN connection to the Internet.

Data Path: Type of path used by the device's processor.

Downstream and Upstream statistics

Max Allowed Speed (kbps): Your maximum speeds for downloading (receiving) and uploading (sending) data on the DSL line, in kilobits per second.

SN Margin (db): Signal to noise margin, in decibels. Reflects the amount of unwanted “noise” on the DSL line.

Line Attenuation: Amount of reduction in signal strength on the DSL line, in decibels.

CRC Errors: Number of times data packets have had to be resent due to errors in transmission or reception.
