System Summary Page

The System Summary page shows general information about the 2Wire gateway, its configuration, and

components. For example, it shows the hardware and software version being used by the 2Wire gateway.

Broadband Link Pages

The Broadband Link pages show summary, detailed status, and statistical information about the 2Wire

gateway broadband link; and lets you change configuration settings. For example, the Statistics page shows

current upstream and downstream DSL data rates.

Local Network Pages

Local Network pages show the general operating status of the home network, and statistics associated

with network interfaces. For example, the Statistics page shows the transmit and receive packet count for

Ethernet, Wireless, HomePNA, and USB interfaces.

Firewall Pages

Firewall pages allow you to access settings and detailed information for the gateway’s firewall, and to

configure the firewall if necessary. For example, you can use the Firewall Settings page to access

applications that are usually blocked by the firewall.

Voice Pages

Voice pages show summary information about the VoIP network, and allow you to configure the servers and

voice lines. For example, the Voice - Configure Server page allows you to set up your VoIP server.

Troubleshooting Pages

Troubleshooting pages allow you to view detailed logs that maintain a record of all significant 2Wire gateway

events, and to perform diagnostic tests. For example, if you are experiencing connection problems you can

use the Ping tool on the WAN Tests page to ensure that the 2Wire gateway can “ping” a designated IP

address.

Advanced Pages

Advanced pages provide detailed information and sophisticated diagnostics that, in general, should only be

accessed by technically advanced users.
