About Your ADSL Internet Access Router
Congratulations on your purchase of the Prestige 645R ADSL Internet Access Router.
The Prestige 645R is an ADSL router used for Internet/LAN access via an ADSL line. We will refer to the
Prestige 645R router as the P645R or simply the Prestige from now on.
The P645R can run upstream maximum transmission rates of 800 Kbps and downstream maximum
transmission rates of 8Mbps. The actual rate depends on the type of ADSL service subscribed to, the copper
category of your telephone wire and the distance from the central office. See the following sections for
more background information on DSL and ADSL.
The P645R's 10/100M LAN interface enables fast data transfer of 10Mbps or 100Mbps in either half-
duplex or full-duplex mode depending on your Ethernet network.
Your Prestige is easy to install and to configure. All functions of the Prestige are software configurable via
the SMT (System Management Terminal) interface.
