Features

Express Internet Access

The router complies with ADSL worldwide standards. It supports downstream rate up to 12/24

Mbps with ADSL2/2+, 8Mbps with ADSL. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL services but also

broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio

much easier and faster than ever. It is compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2;

G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.lite (ITU G.992.2); G.hs (ITU G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); G.dmt.bis.

plus (ITU G.992.5)).

EWAN

BiPAC 7800(N) EWAN port provides user an alternative means to connect to Cable Modems, VDSL,

fiber optic lines and PON besides using ADSL for internet connection. If one uses ADSL to connect

to the internet, EWAN can act as the 5th Ethernet port of the LAN. This alternative provides users

with more flexibility & a faster way to get online.

IPv6 Supported

Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a version of the Internet Protocol that is designed to succeed

IPv4.

IPv6 has a vastly larger address space than IPv4. This results from the use of a 128-bit address,

whereas IPv4 uses only 32 bits. The new address space thus supports 2128 (about 3.4×1038)

addresses. This expansion provides flexibility in allocating addresses and routing traffic and eliminates

the primary need for network address translation (NAT), which gained widespread deployment as an

effort to alleviate IPv4 address exhaustion.

IPv6 also implements new features that simplify aspects of address assignment (stateless address

autoconfiguration) and network renumbering (prefix and router announcements) when changing

Internet connectivity providers. The IPv6 subnet size has been standardized by fixing the size of the

host identifier portion of an address to 64 bits to facilitate an automatic mechanism for forming the

host identifier from Link Layer media addressing information (MAC address).

Fast Ethernet Switch

A 4-port 1000Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X.

An Ethernet straight or crossover cable can be used directly for auto detection.

Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection

It supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation

over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a

connection with the ISP. The product also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.

PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)

BiPAC 7800(N) provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a connection. You get

greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while sharing the same ISP account

and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client software is required for the local computer.

Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout (Idle Timer) functions are also provided.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal

This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices and PCs

from many different vendors. It makes network simple and affordable for users. UPnP architecture

leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable seamless proximity networking in addition to control and

data transfer among networked devices. With this feature enabled, users can now connect to Net

meeting or MSN Messenger seamlessly.

Network Address Translation (NAT)

Allows multi-users to access outside resources such as the Internet simultaneously with one IP

address/one Internet access account. Many application layer gateway (ALG) are supported such as

web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet, E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.

Domain Name System (DNS) Relay

It provides an easy way to map the domain name (a friendly name for users such as www.yahoo.

com) and IP address. When a local machine sets its DNS server with this router’s IP address, every

DNS conversion request packet from the PC to this router will be forwarded to the real DNS in the

outside network.

Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)

The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname. This

dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. For example, to use the service, you must first apply

for an account from a DDNS service like

. More than 5 DDNS servers are

supported.

Virtual Server

Users can specify some services to be visible from outside users. The router can detect incoming

service requests

and forward either a single port or a range of ports to the specific local computer

to handle it. For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN acting as a WEB server inside and

expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside web servers directly while it is

protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a local computer exposed to the outside

network, Internet.

Rich Packet Filtering

Not only filters the packet based on IP address, but also based on Port numbers. It will

filter packets

from the Internet and vice versa, in addition to providing a higher level of security control.

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server

In the WAN site, the DHCP client can get an IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP)

automatically. In the LAN site, the DHCP server can allocate a range of client IP addresses and

3

distribute them including IP address, subnet mask as well as DNS IP address to local computers. It

provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.

802.11n Wireless AP with WPA Support

With an integrated 802.11n Wireless Access Point in the router, the device delivers up to 6 times

faster speeds and 3 times farther range than an 802.11b/g wireless network. It supports a fast data

transfer rate up to 300Mbps and is fully compatible with 802.11b/11g equipments. The supported

features of Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA-PSK/ WPA2-PSK) and Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)

enhance the security level of data protection and access control via Wireless LAN. The router also

supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) that features the establishment of a secured wireless network.

The built-in Wireless Distribution System (WDS) also facilitates the flexibility for wireless network

expansion without the need for any external wires or cables.

Web based GUI

It s

upports web based GUI for configuration and management. It is user-friendly and comes with on-

line help. It also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and manage

this product.

Firmware Upgradeable

Device can be upgraded to the latest firmware through the WEB based GUI.
