1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Westell® Dual Connect NAT Router with DMHTM technology adds reliable, high-speed, Internet access to your
existing home or office phone line. Your ADSL connection is “always-on” ending the hassles of dial-up modems
and busy signals. Installation is easy ... no tools ... no headaches. Simply connect the hardware, apply power, and
perform the simple software configuration for your Dual Connect NAT Router.
This Router is capable of data rates hundreds of times faster than a traditional analog modem. But unlike analog

communications and high-speed Internet access, eliminating the need for dedicated phone lines for voice and data
needs. The Plug and Play feature means that no user configuration is required.
Your Westell modem is equipped with the latest in DSL modem technology. One of the innovative features included
within your modem is a technology called Dynamic Multi-Hybrid or DMHTM. This technology enables your modem
to achieve the fastest possible connection under various loop (telephone wires) conditions.

NOTE: Hereafter the Westell Dual Connect NAT Router will be referred to as “Dual Connect NAT Router” or
“Router.”

2. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. For earlier products,
the REN is separately shown on the label. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most,
but no all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be
connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company.
This equipment is designated to connect to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular

Windows 98: Figure 12 may pop up, depending on how Windows 98 was installed on the computer. The
installation of the Westell modem requires files that are supplied by Microsoft for Windows 98. If Figure 13
pops up, insert the Windows 98 Operating System CD into the computers CD-ROM drive, wait a moment for
the CD to be recognized by the system, and then click on OK. The system should find the required files on the
Windows 98 CD and automatically complete the installation.

Figure 12. Windows 98
If the Operating System CD is not available, or if Figure 12 pops up again, you will have to manually specify the
location of the files. The required files may be stored on your hard drive. A common location for these files is
"C:\Windows\Options\Cabs." Try specifying this path or the path to your CD-ROM drive (usually "D:\") by clicking
the Browse… button in the Insert Disk screen. When you have specified the correct path, click on OK. The system
will begin copying the files. See Figure 14.
NOTE: It is very important that the Windows 98 files be installed. Do not click on Cancel or Skip File in the

PPPoA = Point to Point Protocol over ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode)
PPPoE = Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet
Bridge = Bridge Protocol
Classical IPoA = Internet Protocol over ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode). This
is an ATM encapsulation of the IP protocol.
The protocol status.
VC 1 Bridge Settings
Bridge = A bridge is a layer 2 device that connects two segments of the same LAN that use the
same protocol such as Ethernet. The modem does not have a WAN IP address in this mode. The
client PC will typically get an IP address form a DHCP server in the network or it can be assigned
statically.
Routed Bridge = Routed Bridged Encapsulation (RBE) is the process by which a bridged segment
is terminated on a routed interface. Specifically, the router is routing on an IEEE 802.3 or
Ethernet header carried over RFC 1483 bridged ATM. RBE was developed to address the known
RFC1483 bridging issues, including broadcast storms and security. The modem will get a WAN
IP address through DHCP or can be assigned statically. NAT will use the global address assigned
to the modem.
Proxy Bridge = Proxy Bridge is the process in which the modem acts as a proxy ARP agent for a
local public subnet. The modem will be assigned an IP address from within that public subnet.
The modem will direct all traffic to a gateway, which is configured statically. The gateway
address must not reside within the modems assigned public subnet. All traffic will be sent via the
gateway MAC address. The LAN may also have a private NAT'ed network. NAT will use the
global address assigned to the modem.

The following settings will be displayed if you select System Self Tests from the Troubleshooting menu.
Click on test all to run a diagnostic test on your Router’s connection.
This screen had been displayed in two parts for illustrative purposes. The actual information displayed in this
screen may vary.

If you want to PING using the System Self Test screen (diagnostics page) shown above, enter your DNS or IP
address in the fields provided and click on the test button. The System Self Test will run a diagnostic test that
executes independent of firewall security settings. See the following table for test descriptions and possible
responses.
If you want to PING using the MS-DOS (shell) window, first you will need to check your firewall security setting.
(If you PING via DOS shell you are susceptible to firewall rules, as this PING is dependent on your Router's
firewall settings.) If your firewall is set to Medium or High, you will not be able to PING. You must set your
firewall security setting to Low or None.

DSL
The Router status checks the Router connection. The following is a list of the possible responses:
Up
Down

DSL
The Router is operating correctly and has obtained synchronization with the
opposing modem.
Explanation: The Router is operating correctly, but has not synchronized with
the opposing DSLAM.
Solution: First, check to be sure that the cable connecting your Router to the
ADSL wall jack is properly connected at both ends. If the cable is properly
connected and the Router does not synchronize, try another phone cable. Next,
wait for the Router to train. It can sometimes take as long as two minutes for the
Router to train. If it still has not come into synchronization, power cycle the
Router. If you have tried the approach above and the Router still does not
synchronize, contact your service provider.

PPPoE
The PPPoE status indicates if a PPPoE session is established (i.e., if the PPPoE Discovery procedure has
completed). The following is a list of the possible responses:
Session up

Currently there is no active PPPoE session. A PPP session must be connected
from the homepage screen.
The connection process for a PPPoE session has been initialized. It can
sometimes take a few seconds for the PPPoE Discovery procedure to complete.
Wait 10-15 seconds and try again. If the PPPoE Discovery still cannot complete,
there may be a configuration issue with your service provider's equipment.
Verify your VPI/VCI settings (on the LAN Advanced page) and contact your
ISP provider.
A successful PPPoE session was halted. A PPP session must be connected from
the homepage screen.
A valid PPPoE session was established.
A PPPoE session could not be made. There may be a configuration issue with

Success
No Response

could not test

030-300372 Rev. A

PING ISP’s Router
The Router has detected an IP remote router connection.
Explanation: This message will occur when an IP remote Router does not
answer the IP Ping.
Solution: This test fails when the provider's Router does not give its IP address
to the Router during session establishment. Try Pinging another host, using the
Ping test near the bottom of the Diagnostic screen. If you are able to Ping any
host, or even if you are able to find an IP address for a given host name (try
"www.yahoo.com"), then the failure of the "IP Remote Router" test is moot,
because the success of the Ping demonstrates that you are getting IP traffic
across the DSL line. If the separate Ping fails as well, contact your service
provider.
Explanation: Test could not be executed because of Router status.

Explanation: The Router has failed to successfully obtain the resolved address.
Solution: Determine the IP addresses of your DNS servers (from the home page,
click "Edit" and then "Advanced"), and then use the Ping test near the bottom of
the Diagnostic screen to try to Ping those addresses. This may provide useful
information when you contact your service provider and speak with Technical
Support.
Explanation: The DNS Server was unable to find an address for the given host
name.
Solution: That host may no longer be available on the Internet. Try entering a
different host name.
Explanation: There must be a host name entered in the input box.
Explanation: Test could not be executed because of Router status.

PING
Select PING to check IP continuity to a remote computer either within or beyond the Service Providers network.
Enter either the IP address or the hostname of the remote host computer into the input box to the right of the Test

could not test

PING
The Remote Host Computer was detected.
Explanation: This message will occur when there was no response to the Ping
from the remote computer.
Solution: Bear in mind that many hosts on the Internet are configured for
security reasons to not respond to IP Ping messages. If you get a success from
the DNS test using the same host name, chances are good that your connection
is fine, whether you can Ping the named host or not.
Explanation: There must be a host name or IP address entered in the input box
in order for the Router to Ping.

DNS Configuration
The Router has a built-in DNS server. The Router has a feature called "Dynamic DNS." When an IP address is
assigned, the Router will interrogate the new device for a machine name using several well-known networking
protocols. Any names learned will dynamically be added to the DNS server’s table of local hosts. A static host
assignment is needed only if the new device does not support any of the well-known protocols. The following

This field is a description of the default connection profile that the Router will
use. Feel free to use whatever description you desire.
Your account ID is supplied by your ISP. This text string uniquely identifies
you with your ISP.
The Account Password is a key phrase or text string that verifies your identity to
the ISP.
The Router stores several service profiles. A service profile is a collection of
settings for the built-in firewall and NAT. These settings control which
applications are enabled to talk through the Router. This selection specifies
which service profile is used when the Router is using this connection.
These radio buttons specify how this connection profile is used. A manual
setting requires that this connection must be manually established through the
“homepage” connection button. When this is set to auto, the Router will monitor
the network traffic and determine when a connection needs to be made. The
connection process will happen automatically the “Always ON” selection causes
the Router to aggressively establish a connection with your ISP. Whenever the
Router detects that the connection to your ISP is down, it will try to re-establish
that connection.
Selecting this option will enable the disconnect timeout. If this option is enabled
the Router will monitor the ISP connection for activity. If there is no activity for
the timeout period, the Router will disconnect from the ISP.
This screen is an advanced screen. Modifying parameters identified on this
screen can cause severe disruption of your service. VC stands for “Virtual
Connection.” A VC identifies a connection through the service provider’s ATM
network to your ISP. It is not recommended that you change anything on these
pages unless explicitly instructed by your service provider.

Firewall Settings
This security level only allows basic Internet functionality. Only Mail, News,
Web, FTP, and IPSEC are allowed. No other traffic is allowed. Another
restriction of high security is that it can’t be modified by NAT configuration
options. With High security, you are guaranteed to only pass the previously
mentioned traffic.

with your service provider’s network.
The Connection Name section displays all of the connection profiles that are
defined by the Router. A connection profile is information that the Router needs
to establish a connection to your ISP. The “PPP Status” columns will show a
status of “UP” if the Router is currently using that profile to communicate. The
command button allows you to control the connection state.
Selecting the “Profile Editor” link will allow you to define or change any of the
connection profile settings.
