Introduction to your Router
Welcome to the VoIP/ 802.11g ADSL2+ Firewall Router. The router is an “all-in-one” ADSL router,
combining an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet network switch functionalities, providing
everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over your
ADSL broadband connection. With features such as an ADSL Quick-Start wizard and DHCP Server,
you can be online in no time at all and with a minimum of fuss and configuration, catering for firsttime users to the guru requiring advanced features and control over their Internet connection and
network.
Features
Express Internet Access
The router complies with ADSL worldwide standards. It supports downstream rate up to 12/24
Mbps with ADSL2/2+, 8Mbps with ADSL. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also
broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio
much easier and faster than ever. It is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2;
G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.lite (ITU G.992.2); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); G.dmt.bis.
plus (ITU G.992.5)).
802.11g Wireless AP with WPA Support
With integrated 802.11g Wireless Access Point in the router, the device offers a quick and easy
access among wired network, wireless network and broadband connection (ADSL) with single
device simplicity, and as a result, mobility to the users. In addition to 54 Mbps 802.11g data rate,
it also interoperates backward with existing 802.11b equipment. The Wireless Protected Access
(WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK) and Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) supported features enhance
the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN.
Fast Ethernet Switch
A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI and
MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports. An Ethernet straight or crossover cable can be used
directly for auto detection.
Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection
It supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation
overATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a
connection with the ISP. The product also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.
Quick Installation Wizard
It supports a WEB GUI page to install this device quickly. With this wizard, end users can enter the
information easily which they get from their ISP, then surf the Internet immediately.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal
This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs
from many different vendors. It makes network simple and affordable for users. UPnP architecture
leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and
data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, users can now connect to Net
meeting or MSN Messenger seamlessly.
Network Address Translation (NAT)
Allows multi-users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP
address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateway (ALG) are supported such as
web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.
SOHO Firewall Security with DoS and SPI
Along with the built-in NAT natural firewall feature, the router also provides advanced hacker patternfiltering protection. It can automatically detect and block Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. The router
is built with Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) to determine if a data packet is allowed through the
firewall to the private LAN.
Domain Name System (DNS) Relay
It provides an easy way to map the domain name (a friendly name for users such as www.yahoo.
com) and IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server with this router’s IP address, every
DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router will be forwarded to the real DNS in the
outside network.
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This
dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. For example, to use the service, you must first apply
for an account from a DDNS service like http://www.dyndns.org/. More than 5 DDNS servers are
supported.
Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority by
the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or management
information move through the router ay lightning speed, even under heavy load. The QoS features
are configurable by source IP address, destination IP address, protocol, and port. You can throttle
the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass through the router, to ensure P2P users
don’t saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In
addition, or alternatively, you can simply change the priority of different types of upload data and let
the router sort out the actual speeds.
)
Virtual Server (“port forwarding”)
Users can specify some services to be visible from outside users. The router can detect incoming
service requests and forward either a single port or a range of ports to the specific local computer
to handle it. For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN acting as a WEB server inside and
expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside web servers directly while it is
protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a local computer exposed to the outside
network, Internet.
Rich Packet Filtering
Not only filters the packet based on IP address, but also based on Port numbers. It will filter packets
from and to the Internet, and also provides a higher level of security control.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server
In the WAN site, the DHCP client can get an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP)
automatically. In the LAN site, the DHCP server can allocate a range of client IP addresses and
distribute them including IP address, subnet mask as well as DNS IP address to local computers. It
provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.
Static and RIP1/2 Routing
It has routing capability and supports easy static routing table or RIP1/2 routing protocol.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
It is an easy way to remotely manage the router via SNMP.
Web based GUI
It supports web based GUI for configuration and management. It is user-friendly and comes with online help. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and manage
this product.
Firmware Upgradeable
Device can be upgraded to the latest firmware through the WEB based GUI.
Rich Management Interfaces
It supports flexible management interfaces with local console port, LAN port, and WAN port. Users
can use terminal applications through the console port to configure and manage the device, or
Telnet, WEB GUI, and SNMP through LAN or WAN ports to configure and manage the device.

Cabling
One of the most common causes of problem is bad cabling or ADSL line(s). Make sure that all
connected devices are turned on. On the front panel of your router is a bank of LEDs. Verify that the
LAN Link and ADSL line LEDs are lit. If they are not, verify if you are using the proper cables.
Make sure that all devices (e.g. telephones, fax machines, analogue modems) connected to the same
telephone line as your router have a line filter connected between them and the wall outlet (unless
you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician),
and that all line filters are correctly installed in a right way. If line filter is not installed and connected
properly, it may cause problem to your ADSL connection or may result in frequent disconnections.
Chapter 3: Basic Installation
The router can be configured through your web browser. A web browser is included as a standard
application in the following operating systems: Linux, Mac OS, Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/Me/Vista,
etc. The product provides an easy and user-friendly interface for configuration.
Please check your PC network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network
adapter must be installed. If not, please refer to your Windows-related or other operating system
manuals.
There are ways to connect the router, either through an external repeater hub or connect directly
to your PCs. However, make sure that your PCs have an Ethernet interface installed properly prior
to connecting the router device. You ought to configure your PCs to obtain an IP address through
a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same subnet as the router. The default IP
address of the router is 192.168.1.254 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 (i.e. any attached PC
must be in the same subnet, and have an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.253).
The best and easiest way is to configure the PC to get an IP address automatically from the router
using DHCP. If you encounter any problem accessing the router web interface it is advisable to
uninstall your firewall program on your PCs, as they can cause problems accessing the IP address
of the router. Users should make their own decisions on what is best to protect their network.

44
Port Setting
This section allows you to configure the settings for the router’s Ethernet ports to solve some
of the compatibility problems that may be encountered while connecting to the Internet, as well
allowing users to tweak the performance of their network.
Port # Connection Type: There are Six options to choose from: Auto, disable, 10M half-duplex,
10M full-duplex, 100M half-duplex, 100M full-duplex and Disable. Sometimes, there are Ethernet
compatibility problems with legacy Ethernet devices, and you can configure different types to
solve compatibility issues. The default is Auto, which users should keep unless there are specific
problems with PCs not being able to access your LAN.
IPv4 TOS priority Control (Advanced users): TOS, Type of Services, is the 2nd octet of an IP
packet. Bits 6-7 of this octet are reserved and bit 0-5 are used to specify the priority of the packet.
This feature uses bits 0-5 to classify the packet’s priority. If the packet is high priority, it will flow
first and will not be constrained by the Rate Limit. Therefore, when this feature is enabled, the
router’s Ethernet switch will check the 2nd octet of each IP packet. If the value in the TOS field
matches the checked values in the table (0 to 63), this packet will be treated as high priority.
45
DHCP Server
You can disable or enable the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or enable the
router’s DHCP relay functions. The DHCP protocol allows your router to dynamically assign IP
addresses to PCs on your network if they are configured to obtain IP addresses automatically.
To disable the router’s DHCP Server, check Disabled and click Next, then click Apply. When the
DHCP Server is disabled you will need to manually assign a fixed IP address to each PCs on your
network, and set the default gateway for each PCs to the IP address of the router (by default this is
192.168.1.254).
To configure the router’s DHCP Server, check DHCP Server and click Next. You can then configure
parameters of the DHCP Server including the IP pool (starting IP address and ending IP address to
be allocated to PCs on your network), lease time for each assigned IP address (the period of time
the IP address assigned will be valid), DNS IP address and the gateway IP address. These details
are sent to the DHCP client (i.e. your PC) when it requests an IP address from the DHCP server.
Click Apply to enable this function. If you check “Use Router as a DNS Server”, the ADSL Router will
perform the domain name lookup, find the IP address from the outside network automatically and
forward it back to the requesting PC in the LAN (your Local Area Network).
If you check DHCP Relay Agent and click Next, then you will have to enter the IP address of the
DHCP server which will assign an IP address back to the DHCP client in the LAN. Use this function
only if advised to do so by your network administrator or ISP.
Click Apply to enable this function.

55
System
Here are the items within the System section: Time Zone, Remote Access, Firmware Upgrade,
Backup/Restore, Restart and User Management.
Time Zone
The router does not have a real time clock on board; instead, it uses the Simple Network Time
Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an SNTP server outside your network. Choose your
local time zone, click Enable and click the Apply button. After a successful connection to the Internet,
the router will retrieve the correct local time from the SNTP server you have specified. If you prefer
to specify an SNTP server other than those in the list, simply enter its IP address as shown above.
Your ISP may provide an SNTP server for you to use.
Daylight Saving is also known as Summer Time Period. Many places in the world adapt it during
summer time to move one hour of daylight from morning to the evening in local standard time. Check
Enable box to set your local time.
Resync Period (in minutes) is the periodic interval the router will wait before it re-synchronizes the
router’s time with that of the specified SNTP server. In order to avoid unnecessarily increasing the
load on your specified SNTP server you should keep the poll interval as high as possible – at the
absolute minimum every few hours or even days.
56
Remote Access
To temporarily permit remote administration of the router (i.e. from outside your LAN), select a time
period the router will permit remote access for and click Enable. You may change other configuration
options for the web administration interface using Device Management options in the Advanced
section of the GUI.
If you wish to permanently enable remote access, choose a time period of 0 minute.
Firmware Upgrade
Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality.
Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time
this software may be improved and revised, and your router allows you to upgrade the software it
runs to take advantage of these changes.
Clicking on Browse will allow you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded to
your PC. Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the firmware in your router.
57
Backup / Restore
These functions allow you to save and backup your router’s current settings to a file on your PC, or
to restore a previously saved backup. This is useful if you wish to experiment with different settings,
knowing that you have a backup handy in the case of any mistakes. It is advisable to backup your
router’s settings before making any significant changes to your router’s configuration.
Press Backup to select where on your local PC to save the settings file. You may also change the
name of the file when saving if you wish to keep multiple backups.
Press Browse to select a file from your PC to restore. You should only restore settings files that have
been generated by the Backup function, and that were created when using the current version of the
router’s firmware. Settings files saved to your PC should not be manually edited in any way.
After selecting the settings file you wish to use, pressing Restore will load those settings into the
router.
58
Restart Router
Click Restart with option Current Settings to reboot your router (and restore your last saved
configuration).
If you wish to restart the router using the factory default settings (for example, after a firmware
upgrade or if you have saved an incorrect configuration), select Factory Default Settings to reset to
factory default settings.
You may also reset your router to factory settings by holding the small Reset pinhole button more
than 6 seconds on the back of your router.
Caution: After pressing the RESET button for more than 6 seconds, to be sure you power
cycle the device again.
59
User Management
In order to prevent unauthorized access to your router’s configuration interface, it requires all users
to login with a password. You can set up multiple user accounts, each with their own password.
You are able to Edit existing users and Add new users who are able to access the device’s configuration
interface. Once you have clicked on Edit, you are shown the following options:
You can change the user’s password, whether their account is active and valid, as well as add a
comment to each user account. Click Edit/Delete button to save your revise. You cannot delete
the default admin account, if you do you will be log out. However, you can delete any other created
accounts by clicking Delete when editing the user. You are strongly advised to change the password
on the default “admin” account when you receive your router, and any time you reset your configuration
to Factory Defaults.
60
When you create a user account, check Valid box and fill in the respective information for User,
Comment, Password and Confirm Password in the blanks provided. Then click the Add button to
add your new user account.
To delete a user account, click on the Delete radio button on the right column of the account
you wish to delete and then click the Edit/Delete button on the top to confirm your deletion.
61
Firewall and Access Control
Your router includes a full SPI (Stateful Packet Inspection) firewall for controlling Internet access
from your LAN, as well as helping to prevent attacks from hackers. Besides, when using NAT, the
router acts as a “natural” Internet firewall, as all PCs on your LAN will use private IP addresses
that cannot be directly accessed from the Internet.
Firewall: Prevent outsiders from accessing your local network. The router provides three levels
of security support:
NAT natural firewall: This masks LAN users’ IP addresses which are invisible to users on the
Internet, thus making it more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. This natural
firewall is turned on when NAT function is enabled.
Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Inbound direction of Packet Filter rules to
prevent unauthorized computers or applications to access your local network from the Internet.
Intrusion Detection: Enable Intrusion Detection to detect, prevent and log malicious attacks.
Access Control: Prevent access from PCs on your local network.
Firewall Security and Policy (General Settings): Outbound direction of Packet Filter rules to
prevent unauthorized computers or applications from accessing the Internet.
URL Filter: To block PCs on your local network from unwanted websites.
62
Listed are the items under the Firewall section: General Settings, Packet Filter, Intrusion Detection,
URL Filter, IM/P2P Blocking and Firewall Log.
General Settings
You can choose not to enable Firewall and still able to access to URL Filter and IM/P2P Blocking or
enable the Firewall using preset filter rules and modify the port filter rules as required. The Packet
Filter is used to filter packets based-on Applications (Port) or IP addresses.
There are four options when you enable the Firewall, they are:
L All blocked/User-defined: no pre-defined port or address filter rules by default, meaning that
all inbound (Internet to LAN) and outbound (LAN to Internet) packets will be blocked. Users have
to add their own filter rules for further access to the Internet.
L High/Medium/Low security level: the predefined port filter rules for High, Medium and Low
security are displayed in Port Filters of Packet Filter.
Select either High, Medium or Low security level to enable the Firewall. The only difference between
these three security levels is the preset port filter rules in the Packet Filter. Firewall functionality is
the same for all levels; it is only the list of preset port filters that changes between each setting. For
more detailed on level of preset port filter information, refer to Table 1: Predefined Port Filter.
If you choose of the preset security levels and add custom filters, this level of filter rules will be saved
even and do not need to re-configure the rules again if you disable or switch to other firewall level.
The “Block WAN Request” is a stand-alone function and not relate to whether security enable or
disable. Mostly it is for preventing any scan tools from WAN site by hacker.
63
SIP ALG: You can choose to enable or disable SIP ALG by clicking on the radio buttons.
FTP ALG: You can choose to enable or disable FTP ALG by clicking on the radio buttons.
64
Packet Filter
This function is only available when the Firewall is enabled and one of these four security levels is
chosen (All blocked, High, Medium and Low). The preset port filter rules in the Packet Filter must
modify accordingly to the level of Firewall, which is selected. See Table1: Predefined Port Filter for
more detail information.
65
66
Example: Predefined Port Filters Rules
The predefined port filter rules for High, Medium and Low security levels are listed. See Table 1.
Note: Firewall – All Blocked/User-defined, you must define and create the port filter rules
yourself. No predefined rule is being preconfigured.

Example: Configuring your firewall to allow a publicly accessible web server on your LAN
The predefined port filter rule for HTTP (TCP port 80) is the same no matter whether the firewall is
set to a high, medium or low security level. To setup a web server located on the local network when
the firewall is enabled, you have to configure the Port Filters setting for HTTP.
69
As you can see from the diagram below, when the firewall is enabled with one of the three presets
(Low/Medium/High), inbound HTTP access is not allowed which means remote access through
HTTP to your router is not allowed.
Note: Inbound indicates accessing from Internet to LAN and Outbound is from LAN to the
Internet.
70
Configuring Packet Filter:
1. Click Packet Filters. You will then be presented with the predefined port filter rules screen (in
this case for the low security level), shown below:
Note: You may click Edit the predefined rule instead of Delete it. This is an example to show
to how you add a filter on your own.
2. Choose the radio button you want to delete the existing HTTP rule. Click Edit/Delete button to
delete the existing HTTP rule.
3. Input the Rule Name, Time Schedule, Source/Destination IP, Type, Source/Destination Port,
Inbound and Outbound.
71
Example:
Application: Cindy_HTTP
Time Schedule: Always On
Source / Destination IP Address(es): 0.0.0.0 (I do not wish to active the address-filter, instead I
use the port-filter)
Type: TCP (Please refer to Table1: Predefined Port Filter)
Source Port: 0-65535 (I allow all ports to connect with the application))
Redirect Port: 80-80 (This is Port defined for HTTP)
Inbound / Outbound: Allow
1. The new port filter rule for HTTP is shown below:
2. Configure your Virtual Server (“port forwarding”) settings so that incoming HTTP requests on
port 80 will be forwarded to the PC running your web server:
Note: For how to configure the HTTP in Virtual Server, go to Add Virtual Server in Virtual
Server section for more details.
72
73
Intrusion Detection
The router’s Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is used to detect hacker attacks and intrusion attempts
from the Internet. If the IDS function of the firewall is enabled, inbound packets are filtered and
blocked depending on whether they are detected as possible hacker attacks, intrusion attempts or
other connections that the router determines to be suspicious.
Blacklist: If the router detects a possible attack, the source IP or destination IP address will be
added to the Blacklist. Any further attempts using this IP address will be blocked for the time period
specified as the Block Duration. The default setting for this function is false (disabled). Some attack
types are denied immediately without using the Blacklist function, such as Land attack and Echo/
CharGen scan.
Intrusion Detection: If enabled, IDS will block Smurf attack attempts. Default is false.
Block Duration:
L Victim Protection Block Duration: This is the duration for blocking Smurf attacks. Default
value is 600 seconds.
L Scan Attack Block Duration: This is the duration for blocking hosts that attempt a possible
Scan attack. Scan attack types include X’mas scan, IMAP SYN/FIN scan and similar attempts.
Default value is 86400 seconds.
L DoS Attack Block Duration: This is the duration for blocking hosts that attempt a possible
Denial of Service (DoS) attack. Possible DoS attacks this attempts to block include Ascend Kill and
WinNuke. Default value is 1800 seconds.
Max TCP Open Handshaking Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether a SYN Flood
attempt is occurring or not. Default value is 100 TCP SYN per seconds.
Max PING Count: This is a threshold value to decide whether an ICMP Echo Storm is occurring or
not. Default value is 15 ICMP Echo Requests (PING) per second.
Max ICMP Count: This is a threshold to decide whether an ICMP flood is occurring or not. Default
value is 100 ICMP packets per seconds except ICMP Echo Requests (PING).
For SYN Flood, ICMP Echo Storm and ICMP flood, IDS will just warn the user in the Event Log. It
74

URL Filter
URL (Uniform Resource Locator – e.g. an address in the form of http://www.abcde.com or http://
www.example.com) filter rules allow you to prevent users on your network from accessing particular
websites by their URL. There are no pre-defined URL filter rules; you can add filter rules to meet
your requirements.
Enable/Disable: To enable or disable URL Filter feature.
Block Mode: A list of the modes that you can choose to check the URL filter rules. The default is
set to Always On.
Disabled: No action will be performed by the Block Mode.
L Always On: Action is enabled. URL filter rules will be monitoring and checking at all hours of
the day.
L TimeSlot1 ~ TimeSlot16: It is self-defined time period. You may specify the time period to
check the URL filter rules, i.e. during working hours. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule
section.
Keywords Filtering: Allows blocking by specific keywords within a particular URL rather than having
to specify a complete URL (e.g. to block any image called “advertisement.gif”). When enabled, your
specified keywords list will be checked to see if any keywords are present in URLs accessed to
determine if the connection attempt should be blocked. Please note that the URL filter blocks web
browser (HTTP) connection attempts using port 80 only.
For example, if the URL is http://www.abc.com/abcde.html, it will be dropped as the keyword
“abcde” occurs in the URL.
77
Domains Filtering: This function checks the whole URL not the IP address, in URLs accessed
against your list of domains to block or allow. If it is matched, the URL request will be sent (Trusted)
or dropped (Forbidden). For this function to be activated, both check-boxes must be checked. Here
is the checking procedure:
1. Check the domain in the URL to determine if it is in the trusted list. If yes, the connection attempt
is sent to the remote web server.
2. If not, check if it is listed in the forbidden list. If yes, then the connection attempt will be
dropped.
3. If the packet does not match either of the above two items, it is sent to the remote web server.
4. Please be note that the completed URL, “www” + domain name shall be specified. For example
to block traffic to www.google.com.au, enter “www.google” or “www.google.com”
In the example below, the URL request for www.abc.com will be sent to the remote web server
because it is listed in the trusted list, whilst the URL request for www.google or www.google.com
will be dropped, because www.google is in the forbidden list.
78
Example:
Andy wishes to disable all WEB traffic except for ones listed in the trusted domain, which would
prevent Bobby from accessing other web sites. Andy selects both functions in the Domain Filtering
and thinks that it will stop Bobby. But Bobby knows this function, Domain Filtering, ONLY disables
all WEB traffic except for Trusted Domain, BUT not its IP address. If this is the situation, Block
surfing by IP address function can be handy and helpful to Andy. Now, Andy can prevent Bobby
from accessing other sites.
Restrict URL Features: This function enhances the restriction to your URL rules.
L Block Java Applet: This function can block Web content that includes the Java Applet. It is to
prevent someone who wants to damage your system via standard HTTP protocol.
L Block surfing by IP address: Preventing someone who uses the IP address as URL for skipping Domains Filtering function. Activates only and if Domain Filtering enabled.
79
IM / P2P Blocking
IM, short for Instant Message, is required to use client program software that allows users to
communicate, in exchanging text message, with other IM users in real time over the Internet. A
P2P application, known as Peer-to-peer, is group of computer users who share file to specific
groups of people across the Internet. Both Instant Message and Peer-to-peer applications make
communication faster and easier but your network can become increasingly insecure at the same
time. Billion’s IM and P2P blocking helps users to restrict LAN PCs to access to the commonly used
IM, Yahoo and MSN, and P2P, BitTorrent and eDonkey, applications over the Internet.
Instant Message Blocking: The default is set to Disabled.
Disabled: Instant Message blocking is not triggered. No action will be performed.
Always On: Action is enabled.
L TimeSlot1 ~ TimeSlot16: This is the self-defined time period. You may specify the time period to trigger the blocking, i.e. during working hours. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule
section.
Yahoo/MSN Messenger: Check the box to block either or both Yahoo or/and MSN Messenger.
To be sure you enabled the Instant Message Blocking first.
Peer to Peer Blocking: The default is set to Disabled.
Disabled: Instant Message blocking is not triggered. No action will be performed.
Always On: Action is enabled.
TimeSlot1 ~ TimeSlot16: This is the self-defined time period. You may specify the time period to
trigger the blocking, i.e. during working hours. For setup and detail, refer to Time Schedule section.
BitTorrent / eDonkey: Check the box to block either or both Bit Torrent or/and eDonkey. To be
sure you enabled the Peer to Peer Blocking first.
80
Firewall Log
Firewall Log display log information of any unexpected action with your firewall settings.
Check the Enable box to activate the logs.
Log information can be seen in the Status – Event Log after enabling.
81
VoIP - Voice over Internet Protocol
VoIP enables telephone calls through existing Internet connection instead of going through the
PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network). It is not only cost-effective, especially for a long
distance telephone charges, but also toll-quality voice calls over the Internet.
Here are the items within the VoIP section: SIP Device Parameters, SIP Accounts, Phone Port,
PSTN Dial Plan, VoIP Dial Plan, Call Features, Speed Dial and Ring &Tone.
82
SIP Device Parameters
This section provides easy setup for your VoIP service. Phone port 1 and 2 can be registered to
different SIP Service Provider.
SIP Device Parameters
SIP: To use VoIP SIP as VoIP call signaling protocol. Default is set to Disable.
Silence Suppression (VAD): Voice Activation Detection (VAD) prevents transmitting the nature
silence to consume the bandwidth. It is also known as Silence Suppression which is a software
application that ensures the bandwidth is reserved only when voice activity is activated. Default is
set to Enable.
Echo Cancellation: G.168 echo canceller is an ITU-T standard. It is used for isolating the echo
while you are on the phone. This helps you not to hear much of your own voice reflecting on the
phone while you talk. Default is set to Enable.
RTP Port: Provide the based value from the media (RTP) ports that are assigned for various
endpoints and the different call sessions that may exist within an end-point. (Range from 5100 to
65535, default value is 5100)
Region: This selection is a drop-down box, which allows user to select the country for which the
VoIP device must work. When a country is selected, the country parameters are automatically
loaded.
Voice QoS, DSCP Marking: Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), it is the first 6 bits in
the ToS byte. DSCP Marking allows users to assign specific application traffic to be executed in
priority by the next Router based on the DSCP value. See Table 4. The DSCP Mapping Table:
Note: To be sure the router(s) in the backbones network have the capability in executing and
checking the DSCP through-out the QoS network.
83
Advanced – Parameters
VoIP through IP Interface: IP Interface decides where to send/receive the voip traffic; it includes:
ipwan and iplan. Easy way to select the interface is to check the location of the SIP server. If
it locates some where in the Internet then select ipwan. If the VoIP SIP server is on the local
Network then select iplan.
Voice Frame Size: Frame size is available from 10ms to 60ms. Frame size meaning how many
milliseconds the Voice packets will be queued and sent out. It is ideal to have the same frame
size in both of Caller and Receiver.
Dial Plan Priority: Define the priority between VoIP and PSTN dial plan.
PSTN Auto-fallback: Whenever VoIP SIP responses error and error code matching with the
codes in the Edit section, the VoiP calls will automatically fallback to PSTN. In the other word, the
call will be called via the PSTN when VoIP SIP returns an error code.
Click the Edit to add or remove the responses code. To be sure the code is separated by a
comma (,).
to link to http://voip-info.
For more information about SIP responses codes, please check
org/wiki/view/sip+response+codes where you can get to know the meaning of each error code.
T.38 Fax Relay: It allows the transfer of facsimile documents in real-time between two standard
Group 3 facsimile terminals over the Internet or other networks using IP protocols. It will only
function when both sites are support this feature and enabled.
Advanced – PSTN Environment Adjustment
PSTN Environment Adjustment options will help you to adjust the onhook and offhook voltage
detection values for your environment. You should use these if the default values are incorrect
and result in PSTN calls not being detected properly, e.g. calls being terminated within 5 seconds
of being answered. The actual levels are determined by your environment including the number
and type of telephones used.
Note: ONHOOK means hung up.
84
To take your phone OFFHOOK, lift the receiver then press Hook/Flash until you hear your normal
PSTN dialtone, not your VoIP dialtone. Wait several seconds and then press Check Level.
You should check the OFFHOOK value for each telephone you have connected to this device.
Set the OFFHOOK voltage to the lowest setting registered for all your telephones, e.g. if your
telephones return values of 4, 5 and 7 then you should set your OFFHOOK voltage to 4.
Note: The detected values will not automatically be set by the Check Level function; you
must enter the lowest level detected after testing all your telephones.
85
SIP Accounts

Press “+“, the plus sign, to increase either microphone or/both speaker’s level of your telephone.
88
PSTN Dial Plan (Router with LINE port only)
This section enables you to configure “VoIP with PSTN switching” on your system. You can define
a range of dial plans to make regular call from VoIP switching to PSTN line. Prefix numbers is
essential key to make a distinguishing between VoIP and Regular phone call. If actual numbers
dialed matches with prefix number defined in this dial plan, the dialed number will be routed to the
PSTN to make a regular call. Otherwise, the number will be routed to the VoIP networks.
Reminder! In order to utilize this feature, you must have registered and connected to your
SIP Server first.
Prefix: Specify number(s) for switching to a PSTN call.
Number of Digits: Specify the total number of digits wish to dial out. Maximum digit number is 15.
Action: Specify a dialing method you wish to make PSTN call(s).
Dial with Prefix: The dialed number with prefix will be sent call through the PSTN.
Note: The actual dialed number of valid digits length requires matching in the Number of
Digits filed.
Dial without Prefix: The dialed number will be sent call through the PSTN without prefix.
Note: The actual dialed number of valid digits length requires matching in the Number of
Digits filed.
L Dial at Timeout: The dialed number will be sent call through the PSTN with the prefix when
timeout starts. This timeout activates when no more digits are dialed in a specific duration.
Note: The actual dialed number of valid digits length MUST NOT exceed in the Number of
Digits filed.
L Dial at Timeout no Prefix: The dialed number will be sent call through the PSTN without
prefix when timeout starts. This timeout activates when no more digits are dialed in a specific duration.

PSTN Dial Plan Examples:
1. Dial with Prefix
If you dial 01223 707070, number 01223707070 will be dialed out via FXO to make a regular phone
call.
2. Dial without Prefix
If you dial 9102, the number 102 will only be dialed out via FXO port to make a regular phone call.
3. Dial at Timeout
If you only dial 01223 7070 and no more numbers, after the timeout activates, 012237070 will be
dialed to make a regular call via FXO port.
91
Even though 7070 (only 4 digits) does not match with number of digits 6 defined in the filed, 7070
is still a valid phone number since it has not exceeded 6 digits.
4. Dial at Timeout no Prefix
If you only dial 97070 and no more numbers, after the timeout activates, 7070 will be dialed
without prefix to make a regular call via FXO port.
Even though 7070 (only 4 digits) does not match with number of digits 6 defined in the filed, 7070
is still a valid phone number since it has not exceed 6 digits.

Dial Plan Rules List
Click the Add button to create and define a VoIP dial-plan rule(s).
Prefix Processing:
Prepend xxx unconditionally: xxx number is appended unconditionally to the front of the dialing
number when making a call. Prefix can also be included with any number and/or character such as
+, *, #.
Note: For special service with +, *, #, you may need to check with your VoIP or Local Telephone
Service Provider for information.
If Prefix is xxx, delete it: Prefix xxx is removed from the dialing numbers before making a call.
If Prefix is xxx, replace with: Prefix xxx is appended to the front of the dialing numbers when
making a call.
No prefix: No prefix is appended to the front of the dialing numbers. It is set as in default settings.
Main Digit Sequence: The call(s) can be called out via SIP or PSTN or ENUM.
x: Any numeric number between 0 and 9.
. ( period ): Repeat numeric number(s) between 0 and 9.
* (asterisk sign): It is normal character ‘*’ on phone key pad. Please check if special service(s) is

VoIP Service Provider or Local Telephone Service Provider for special service(s).
95
<@ Current Profile>: Referring to the VoIP account registered on the VoIP Wizard for Port 1 / 2.
<@ PSTN>: Meaning making call(s) via the PSTN line.
<@ENUM>: Meaning making a VoIP SIP direct call via E.164 number (“ENUM”) to an ENUM
callee.
Electronic Number (ENUM) uses the DNS (Domain Network System) based technology to map
between a traditional phone number (PSTN) to an Internet addresses/ SIP URL. The ENUM
number must be registered via a public ENUM site or your VoIP Service Provider.
<@ SIPgateway>: It is used for the Intelligent Call Routing feature where you need to set up
your SIP account on the VoIP User-defined Profiles link on the VoIP Wizard page. Go to the VoIP
Wizard in this manual for more information.

Intelligent Call Routing Example:
VoIP Gateway let you use 3 VoIP/SIP providers at the same time. VoIP/SIP providers are
96
localcheap.com, longdischeap.com and mobilecheap.com. Each provider has its price for
different type of calls and I can set the following rule for each providers.
1. Phone 1: For Local calls: I use localcheap.com that charges $0.01 per minute to all local calls. I
set a dial rule, <:03>[123]x.T, on my phone port 1.
Localcheap.com is the default VoIP provider I set on phone port 1. When I call out any number
start with 1 or 2 or 3 and plus rest of the phone number for local call, 03 is always prepended in
front of these number. If 23295 are dialed, 03-2-32935 is the actual phone number called out via
localcheap.com provider.
2. Phone 2: For Mobile calls: I use mobilecheap.com that charges $0.25 per minute to all local calls.
I set a dial rule, <123:09>39x.T, on my phone port 2.
Mobilecheap.com is the default VoIP provider I set on phone port 2. When I call out 123-39-45678
for a mobile call, 123 is replaced with 09. Therefore, 09-39-45678 is the actual phone number
called out via Mobilecheap.com provider.
The Intelligent Call Gateway not only saves time from changing VoIP settings to different provider
to make call get routed to specific gateway(s) automatically but also taking advantage of different
call rate.

QoS - Quality of Service
QoS function helps you to control your network traffic for each application from LAN (Ethernet
and/or Wireless) to WAN (Internet). It facilitates you to control the different quality and speed of
through put for each application when the system is running with full loading of upstream.
Here are the items within the QoS section: Prioritization, Outbound IP Throttling & Inbound IP
Throttling (bandwidth management).
Prioritization
There are three priority settings to be provided in the Router:
High
Normal (The default is normal priority for all of traffic without setting)
Low
And the balances of utilization for each priority are High (60%), Normal (30%) and Low (10%).
To delete the application, you can choose Delete option and then click Edit/Delete.
Name: User-define description to identify this new policy/application.
Time Schedule: Scheduling your prioritization policy.
Priority: The priority given to each policy/application. Its default setting is set to High; you may

Source IP Address Range: The source IP address or range of packets to be monitored.
Source Port: The source port of packets to be monitored.
101
Destination IP Address Range: The destination IP address or range of packets to be monitored.
Destination Port: The destination port of packets to be monitored.
DSCP Marking: Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), it is the first 6 bits in the ToS byte.
DSCP Marking allows users to assign specific application traffic to be executed in priority by the
next Router based on the DSCP value. See Table 4 for DSCP Mapping Table.
Note: To be sure the router(s) in the backbones network have the capability in executing and
checking the DSCP through-out the QoS network.

Mission-critical application
Mostly the VPN connection is mission-critical application for doing data exchange between head
and branch office.
The mission-critical application must be sent out smoothly without any dropping. Set priority as
high level for preventing any other applications to saturate the bandwidth.
Voice application
Voice is latency-sensitive application. Most VoIP devices are use SIP protocol and the port number
will be assigned by SIP module automatically. Better to use fixed IP address for catching VoIP
packets as high priority.
Above settings will help to improve quality of your VoIP service when traffic is full loading.
Restricted Application
Some of companies will setup FTP server for customer downloading or home user sharing their
files by using FTP.
107
With above settings that help to limit utilization of upstream of FTP. Time schedule also help you to
only limit utilization at daytime.
Advanced setting by using IP throttling
With IP throttling you can specify more detail for allocating bandwidth; even the applications are
located in the same level.
Upstream: 928kbps (29*32kbps)
Mission-critical Application: 192kbps (6*32kbps)
Voice Application: 128kbps (4*32kbps)
Restricted Application: 160kbps (5*32kbps)
Other Applications: 448kbps (14*32kbps)
6+4+14+5=29, 29*32kbps=928kbps
108
Sometime your customers or friends may upload their files to your FTP server and that will
saturate your downstream bandwidth. The settings below help you to limit bandwidth for the
restricted application.
109
Virtual Server (known as Port Forwarding)
In TCP/IP and UDP networks a port is a 16-bit number used to identify which application program
(usually a server) incoming connections should be delivered to. Some ports have numbers that
are pre-assigned to them by the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), and these are
referred to as “well-known ports”. Servers follow the well-known port assignments so clients can
locate them.
If you wish to run a server on your network that can be accessed from the WAN (i.e. from other
machines on the Internet that are outside your local network), or any application that can accept
incoming connections (e.g. Peer-to-peer/P2P software such as instant messaging applications
and P2P file-sharing applications) and are using NAT (Network Address Translation), then you will
usually need to configure your router to forward these incoming connection attempts using specific
ports to the PC on your network running the application. You will also need to use port forwarding
if you want to host an online game server.
The reason for this is that when using NAT, your publicly accessible IP address will be used by and
point to your router, which then needs to deliver all traffic to the private IP addresses used by your
PCs. Please see the WAN configuration section of this manual for more information on NAT.
The device can be configured as a virtual server so that remote users accessing services such
as Web or FTP services via the public (WAN) IP address can be automatically redirected to local
servers in the LAN network. Depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the
device redirects the external service request to the appropriate server within the LAN network
110
Add Virtual Server
Because NAT can act as a “natural” Internet firewall, your router protects your network from being
accessed by outside users when using NAT, as all incoming connection attempts will point to your
router unless you specifically create Virtual Server entries to forward those ports to a PC on your
network.
When your router needs to allow outside users to access internal servers, e.g. a web server, FTP
server, Email server or game server, the router can act as a “virtual server”. You can set up a local
server with a specific port number for the service to use, e.g. web/HTTP (port 80), FTP (port 21),
Telnet (port 23), SMTP (port 25), or POP3 (port 110), When an incoming access request to the
router for a specified port is received, it will be forwarded to the corresponding internal server.
Application: Users-define description to identify this entry or click the Application drop-down menu
to select an existing predefined rules.
Select: 20 predefined rules are available. Application, Protocol and External/Redirect Ports will
be filled after the selection.
Protocol: It is the supported protocol for the virtual server. In addition to specifying the port
number to be used, you will also need to specify the protocol used. The protocol used is
determined by the particular application. Most applications will use TCP or UDP.
Time Schedule: User-defined time period to enable your virtual server. You may specify a time
schedule or Always on for the usage of this Virtual Server Entry. For setup and detail, refer to
Time Schedule section
External Port: The Port number on the Remote/WAN side used when accessing the virtual server.
Redirect Port: The Port number used by the Local server in the LAN network.
Internal IP Address: The private IP in the LAN network, which will be providing the virtual server
application. The Select List lists all existing PCs connecting to the network. You may assign a PC
with IP address and MAC from this list.
111
Example:
If you like to remote accessing your Router through the Web/HTTP at all time, you would need to
enable port number 80 (Web/HTTP) and map to Router’s IP Address. Then all incoming HTTP
requests from you (Remote side) will be forwarded to the Router with IP address of 192.168.1.254.
Since port number 80 has already been predefined, next to the Application click Helper. A list of
predefined rules window will pop and select HTTP_Sever.
Application: HTTP_Sever
Time Schedule: Always On

Edit DMZ Host
The DMZ Host is a local computer exposed to the Internet. When setting a particular internal
IP address as the DMZ Host, all incoming packets will be checked by the Firewall and NAT
algorithms then passed to the DMZ host, when a packet received does not use a port number
used by any other Virtual Server entries.
Cautious: This Local computer exposing to the Internet may face varies of security risks.
Go to Configuration > Virtual Server > Edit DMZ Host
Enabled: It activates your DMZ function.
Disabled: As set in default setting, it disables the DMZ function.
Internal IP Address: Give a static IP address to the DMZ Host when Enabled radio button is
checked. Be aware that this IP will be exposed to the WAN/Internet.
The Select List lists all existing PCs connecting to the network. You may assign a PC with IP
address and MAC from this list.
Select the Apply button to apply your changes.

Example: List of some well-known and registered port numbers.
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is the central coordinator for the assignment
of unique parameter values for Internet protocols. Port numbers range from 0 to 65535, but only
ports numbers 0 to 1023 are reserved for privileged services and are designated as “well-known
ports” (Please refer to Table 5). The registered ports are numbered from 1024 through 49151.
The remaining ports, referred to as dynamic or private ports, are numbered from 49152 through
65535.

Time Schedule
The Time Schedule supports up to 16 time slots which helps you to manage your Internet
connection. In each time profile, you may schedule specific day(s) i.e. Monday through Sunday to
restrict or allowing the usage of the Internet by users or applications.
This Time Schedule correlates closely with router’s time, since router does not have a real time
clock on board; it uses the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to get the current time from an
SNTP server from the Internet. Refer to Time Zone for details. You router time should correspond
with your local time. If the time is not set correctly, your Time Schedule will not function properly.

Advanced
Configuration options within the Advanced section are for users who wish to take advantage of
the more advanced features of the router. Users who do not understand the features should not
attempt to reconfigure their router, unless advised to do so by support staff.
Here are the items within the Advanced section: Static Route, Static ARP, Dynamic DNS,
Device Management, IGMP and VLAN Bridge.
Static Route
Go to Configuration > Advanced > Static Route
Destination: This is the destination subnet IP address.
Netmask: Subnet mask of the destination IP addresses based on above destination subnet IP.
Gateway: This is the gateway IP address to which packets are to be forwarded.
Interface: Select the interface through which packets are to be forwarded.
Cost: This is the same meaning as Hop. This should usually be left at 1.
121
Static ARP
Go to Configuration > Advanced > Static ARP
IP Address: Fill in the IP address of the host computer that is sending the data packet.
MAC Address: Fill in the MAC address of the computer that the incoming data packets are to
be forwarded.
Dynamic DNS
The Dynamic DNS function allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname,
allowing users whose ISP does not assign them a static IP address to use a domain name.
This is especially useful for hosting servers via your ADSL connection, so that anyone
wishing to connect to you may use your domain name, rather than having to use your
dynamic IP address, which changes from time to time. This dynamic IP address is the WAN
IP address of the router, which is assigned to you by your ISP.
You will first need to register and establish an account with the Dynamic DNS provider
using their website, for example http://www.dyndns.org/
There are more than 5 DDNS services supported.
Dynamic DNS:
Disable: Check to disable the Dynamic DNS function.
122
L
Enable: Check to enable the Dynamic DNS function. The following fields will be
activated and required.
Dynamic DNS Server: Select the DDNS service you have established an
account with.
Domain Name, Username and Password: Enter your registered domain name and your
username and password for this service.
Period: Set the time period between updates, for the Router to exchange information with the
DDNS server. In addition to updating periodically as per your settings, the router will
perform an update when your dynamic IP address changes.
123
Device Management
The Device Management advanced configuration settings allow you to control your router’s
security options and device monitoring features.
Device Host Name
Host Name: Assign it a name.
(The Host Name cannot be used with one word only. There are two words
should be connected with a ‘.’ at least.
Example:
Host Name: homegateway ==> Incorrect
Host Name: home.gateway or my.home.gateway ==> Correct)
Embedded Web Server ( 2 Management IP Accounts)
124
HTTP Port: This is the port number the router’s embedded web server (for web-based
configuration) will use. The default value is the standard HTTP port, 80. Users may
specify an alternative if, for example, they are running a web server on a PC within their
LAN.
Management IP Address: You may specify an IP address allowed to logon and access
the router’s web server. Setting the IP address to 0.0.0.0 will disable IP address
restrictions, allowing users to login from any IP address.
Expire to auto-logout: Specify a time frame for the system to auto-logout the user’s
configuration Session.
For Example: User A changes HTTP port number to 100, specifies their own IP
address of 192.168.1.55, and sets the logout time to be 100 seconds. The router
will only allow User A access from the IP address 192.168.1.55 to logon to the
Web GUI by typing: http://192.168.1.254:100 in their web browser. After 100
seconds, the device will automatically logout User A.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP)
UPnP offers peer-to-peer network connectivity for PCs and other network devices,
along with control and data transfer between devices. UPnP offers many advantages
for users running NAT routers through UPnP NAT Traversal, and on supported systems
makes tasks such as port forwarding much easier by letting the application control the
required settings, removing the need for the user to control advanced configuration of
their device.
Both the user’s Operating System and the relevant application must support UPnP in
addition to the router. Windows XP and Windows Me natively support UPnP (when the
component is installed), and Windows 98 users may install the Internet Connection Sharing
client from Windows XP in order to support UPnP. Windows 2000 does not support UPnP.
Disable: Check to disable the router’s UPnP functionality.
Enable: Check to enable the router’s UPnP functionality.
UPnP Port: Its default setting is 2800. It is highly recommended for users to use this port
value. If this value conflicts with other ports already being used you may wish to change the
port.
SNMP Access Control
Software on a PC within the LAN is required in order to utilize this function – Simple
Network Management Protocol.
Enable: Select Enable to allow management access from remote side (mostly from internet).
SNMP V1 and V2:
Read Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Read Community, and an IP
address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the
configuration file. Once the string name is matched, user obtains this IP address will be able
to view the data.
Write Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Write Community, and an IP
address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the
125
configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be able
to view and modify the data.
Trap Community: Specify a name to be identified as the Trap Community, and an IP
address. This community string will be checked against the string entered in the
configuration file. Once the string name is matched, users from this IP address will be sent
SNMP Traps.
SNMP V3:
Specify a name and password for authentication. And define the access right from
identified IP address. Once the authentication has succeeded, users from this IP address
will be able to view and modify the data.
SNMP Version: SNMPv2c and SNMPv3
SNMPv2c is the combination of the enhanced protocol features of SNMPv2 without the
SNMPv2 security. The “c” comes from the fact that SNMPv2c uses the SNMPv1 community
string paradigm for “security”, but is widely accepted as the SNMPv2 standard.
SNMPv3 is a strong authentication mechanism, authorization with fine granularity for remote
monitoring.
Traps supported: Cold Start, Authentication Failure.

IGMP, known as Internet Group Management Protocol, is used to management hosts from
multicast group.
IGMP Forwarding: Accepting multicast packet. Default is set to Enable.
IGMP Snooping: Allowing switched Ethernet to check and make correct forwarding decisions.
Default is set to Disable.
VLAN Bridge
This section allows you to create VLAN group and specify the member.
Edit: Edit your member ports in selected VLAN group.
Create VLAN: To create another VLAN group.

Logout
To exit the router web interface, choose Logout. Please save your configuration setting before
logging out of the system.
Be aware that the router configuration interface can only be accessed by one PC at a time.
Therefore when a PC has logged into the system interface, the other users cannot access the
system interface until the current user has logged out of the system. If the previous user forgets to
logout, the second PC can only access the router web interface after a user-defined auto logout
period which is by default 3 minutes. You can however modify the value of the auto logout period
using the Advanced > Device Management section of the router web interface. Please see the
Advanced section of this manual for more information.

Chapter 5: Troubleshooting
If your router is not functioning properly, please refer to the suggested solutions provided in this
chapter. If your problems persist or the suggested solutions do not meet your needs, please kindly
contact your service provider or Billion for support.
Problems with the router
Problem
Suggested Action
Check the connection between the router and the
adapter. If the problem persists, most likely it is due
to the malfunction of your hardware. Please contact
your service provider or Billion for technical support.
You have forgotten your login username Try the default username & password (Please refer
or password
to Chapter 3). If this fails, restore your router to its
default setting by pressing the reset button for more
than 6 seconds.
None of the LEDs lit when the router is
turned on.
Problems with WAN interface
Problem
Suggested Action
Initialization of PVC connection (line- Make sure that the telephone cable is properly connected between the ADSL port and the wall jack. The
sync)fail
ADSL LED on the front panel should lit. Check that
your VPI, VCI, encapsulation type and type of multiplexing settings are the same as those provided by
your ISP. Reboot the router GE. If you still have problem, you may need to verify these settings with your
ISP.
Make sure that all devices (e.g telephone, fax maFrequent loss of ADSL linesync

chine, analogue modems) that are connected to the
telephone line as your router have a line filter connected between them and the wall outlet (unless your
are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by
a qualified and licensed electrician). Make sure that alll
line filters are correctly installed as missing line filters
or incorrect installation of line filters can cause ADSL
connection problem, including frequent disconnections.

Problem with LAN interface
Problem
Cannot PING any PC on LAN
Suggested Action
Check the Ethernet LEDs on the front panel. The LED
should be on for the port that has a PC connected. If it does
not lit, check to see if the cable between your router and the
PC is properly connected. Make sure you have first uninstalled your firewall program before troubleshooting.
Verify that the IP address and the subnet mask are consistent for both the router and the workstations.
