- | ====== ADSL Overview ====== | ||
- | |||
- | The Internet Gate includes an ADSL modem for Internet access. | ||
- | |||
- | The ADSL technology offers high-speed fixed Internet connections over existent twisted-pair telephone lines. No new wiring is necessary and the telephone line is kept open for ordinary voice calls. | ||
- | |||
- | ADSL uses two pieces of equipment, one is your ADSL modem, and one is a modem, or a so-called DSL Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) located at your Internet Service Provider. The DSLAM is the equipment that really allows ADSL to happen. A DSLAM takes connections from many customers and aggregates them onto a single, high-capacity connection to the Internet. | ||
- | |||
- | The Internet Gate ADSL modem is compatible with DSLAMs from all major suppliers currently available on the market. | ||
- | |||
- | ===== ADSL Settings ===== | ||
- | On the [[web GUI:adsl page|ADSL Settings page]] you can configure the ADSL modem that is built-in into your Internet Gate. **The default settings are appropriate for most users and should only be changed by advanced users with in depth knowledge .** | ||
