server is set, you will only need to set the time zone. If you manually set the time, you

may also set Daylight Saving dates and the system time will automatically adjust on

those dates.

Current Date/Time:

This field displays an updated Date and Time when you reenter

this menu.

[Time Synchronization]

Synchronize time with:

You can choose

“NTP Server automatically”, “PC’s

to coordinate the time.

Time Zone:

Choose the Time Zone of your location. This will set the time difference

between your time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

Daylight Saving:

Choose

“Enabled”

or

“Disabled”

to use daylight savings time.

NTP Server Address:

Type the IP address or domain name of your timeserver. Check

with your ISP/network administrator if you are unsure of this information.

A

Network Time Protocol (NTP)

server can automatically set the router time for you.

If you use an NTP server, you will only need to select your time zone. If you manually

set the time, you can enable Daylight Saving. The router will automatically adjust when

Daylight Saving goes into effect.

When you are done making changes, click on

SAVE

to save your changes or on

Status of SNR Margin, Line Attenuation and Data Rate

SNR Margin:

Amount of increased noise that can be tolerated while maintaining the

designed BER (bit error rate). The SNR Margin is set by Central Office DSLAM. If

the SNR Margin is increased, bit error rate performance will improve, but the data

rate will decrease. Conversely, if the SNR Margin is decreased, bit error rate

performance will decrease, but the data rate will increase.

Line Attenuation:

Attenuation is the decrease in magnitude of the ADSL line signal

between the transmitter (Central Office DSLAM) and the receiver (Client ADSL

Modem), measured in dB. It is measured by calculating the difference in dB between

the signal power level received at the Client ADSL Router and the reference signal

power level transmitted from the Central Office DSLAM.

Data Rate:

This field displays the ADSL data rate.
