Advanced Internet Functions
• Conferencing & Telephony Applications. Internet Telephony and Conferencing

LAN. The required setup is quick and easy.
• DMZ. One (1) PC on your local LAN can be configured to allow unrestricted 2-way

address to PCs and other devices upon request. The DSL/Cable Router can act as a DHCP
Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
• Multi Segment LAN Support. LANs containing one or more segments are supported,
via the Router's RIP (Routing Information Protocol) support and built-in static routing ta-
ble.
