Device Name

This field displays the current name of this device.

Device Mode

Select the desired device mode for the router:

Router - Both the ADSL Modem and the Router features are operational.

In this mode, this device can provide shared Internet Access to all your

LAN users. Also, by default, it acts a DHCP Server, providing an IP

address and related information to all Wireless and LAN users.

Modem - Only the ADSL Modem component is operational. All Router

features are disabled. This device is "transparent" - it does not perform

any operations or make any changes to the network traffic passing

through it. You need to have a DHCP Server on your LAN to provide IP

addresses to the Wireless clients using this Access Point.

This mode is also called Bridge Mode.

After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a few

seconds. The menu will also change, depending on the mode you are in.

Operation

Operation is automatic and transparent.

 Wireless clients can connect to the Access Point if they have the correct SSID and security, but they

must obtain an IP address from the DHCP Server on your LAN.

The modem will act like any other ADSL modem. No routing will be performed, and no client login will be done.

If a client login is required, it must be performed by your Router/Gateway or by software on your PC.
