Chapter 1. Introduction

Thank you for choosing the

iB-WRA150N

150M Wireless N ADSL2+ Router.

1.1

Product Overview

The device is designed to provide a simple and cost-effective ADSL Internet connection for a

private Ethernet or IEEE 802.11n/ IEEE 802.11g/ IEEE 802.11b wireless network.

The iB-WRA150N connects to an Ethernet LAN or computers via standard Ethernet ports. The

ADSL connection is made using ordinary telephone line with standard connectors. Multiple

workstations can be networked and connected to the Internet using a single Wide Area Network

(WAN) interface and single global IP address. The advanced security enhancements,

and

URL Filter

can help to protect your network from potentially

devastating intrusions by malicious agents from the outside of your network.

Quick Start

of the Web-based Utility is supplied and friendly help messages are provided for the

configuration. Network and Router management is done through the Web-based Utility which can

be accessed through local Ethernet using any web browser.

ADSL

The iB-WRA150N supports full-rate ADSL2+ connectivity conforming to the ITU and ANSI

specifications. In addition to the basic DMT physical layer functions, the ADSL2+ PHY supports

dual latency ADSL2+ framing (fast and interleaved) and the I.432 ATM Physical Layer.

Wireless

In the most attentive wireless security, the Router provides multiple protection measures. It can be

set to turn off the wireless network name (SSID) broadcast so that only stations that have the

SSID can be connected. The Router provides wireless LAN 64/128-bit WEP encryption security,

WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK authentication, as well as TKIP/AES encryption security.
