P320W Support Notes
5.The Prestige Internet Access Sharing Router uses Solid State Disk technology. There are no moving parts in the product. It is much more reliable than any hard disk based system, such as the one for WinGate.
Is it possible to access a server running behind SUA from the outside Internet? If possible, how?
Yes, it is possible because Prestige delivers the packet to the local server by looking up to a SUA server table. Therefore, to make a local server accessible to the outside users, the port number and the inside IP address of the server must be configured in Network>NAT>Port Forwarding
What DHCP capability does the Prestige support?
The Prestige supports DHCP client on the WAN port and DHCP server on the LAN port. The Prestige's DHCP client allows it to get the Internet IP address from ISP automatically. The Prestige's DHCP server allows it to automatically assign IP and DNS addresses to the clients on the local LAN.
What network interface does the new Prestige series support?
The Prestige series support 4*10/100M Ethernet LAN port to connect to the computer on LAN and 1*10/100M Ethernet to connect to the external cable or ADSL modem on WAN.
How can I upload data to outside Internet over the one-way cable?
A workaround is to use an alternate path for your upstream path, such as a dialup connection to an Internet service provider. So, if you can find another way to get your upstream packets to the Internet you will still be able to receive downstream packets via Prestige.
How fast can the data go?
The speed of the cable modem is only one part of the equation. There are a combination of factors starting with how fast your PC can handle IP traffic, then how fast your PC to cable modem interface is, then how fast the cable modem system runs and how much congestion there is on the cable network, then how big a pipe there is at the head end to the rest of the Internet.
Different models of PCs and Macs are able to handle IP traffic at varying speeds. Very few can handle it at 30 Mbps.
