Status ADSL window The following information is displayed: ADSL Firmware Version The current Firmware version currently set in the Router. ADSL Software Version The current Software version currently set in the Router. Line state Displays the current line state of the ADSL connection, either being Up or Down.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual Max Tx Power This field displays the transmit output power level of the CPE. SNR Margin Amount of increased noise that can be tolerated while maintaining the designed BER (bit error rate). The SNR Margin is set by the 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.

DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual B IP Address Setup The DSL-524T is designed to provide network administrators maximum flexibility for IP addressing on the Ethernet LAN. The easiest IP setup choice in most cases is to let the Router do it using DHCP, which is enabled by default. This appendix briefly describes various options including DHCP, used for IP setup on a LAN. If you are new to IP networking, the next appendix provides some background information on basic IP concepts.

If you are interested in more advanced information on how to use IP addressing on a LAN there are numerous resources freely available on the Internet. There are also many books and chapters of books on the subject of IP address assignment, IP networking and the TCP/IP protocol suite.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual C IP Concepts This appendix describes some basic IP concepts, the TCP/IP addressing scheme and show how to assign IP Addresses. When setting up the Router, you must make sure it has a valid IP address. Even if you will not use the WAN port (ADSL port), you should, at the very least, make sure the Ethernet LAN port is assigned a valid IP address. This is required for telnet, in-band SNMP management, and related functions such as “trap” handling and TFTP firmware download.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual Networks attached to the Internet are assigned class types that determine the maximum number of possible hosts per network. The previous figure illustrates how the net and host portions of the IP address differ among the three classes. Class A is assigned to networks that have more than 65,535 hosts; Class B is for networks that have 256 to 65534 hosts; Class C is for networks with less than 256 hosts.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual B 172.16.0.0 C 192.168.0.0 172.31.255.25 5 192.168.255.2 55 It is recommended that you choose private network IP Addresses from the above list. For more information on address assignment, refer to RFC 1597, Address Allocation for Private Internets and RFC 1466, Guidelines for Management of IP Address Space.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual Subnet Mask In the absence of subnetworks, standard TCP/IP addressing may be used by specifying subnet masks as shown below. IP Class Class A Class B Class C Subnet Mask 255.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 255.255.255.0 Subnet mask settings other than those listed above add significance to the interpretation of bits in the IP address. The bits of the subnet mask correspond directly to the bits of the IP address.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual D Microfilters and Splitters Most ADSL clients will be required to install a simple device that prevents the ADSL line from interfering with regular telephone services. These devices are commonly referred to as microfilters or sometimes called (inaccurately) line splitters. They are easy to install and use standard telephone connectors and cable.
DSL-524T ADSL Router Manual Line Splitter If you are instructed to use a “line splitter”, you must install the device between the Router and the phone jack. Use standard telephone cable with standard RJ-11 connectors. The splitter has three RJ-11 ports used to connect to the wall jack, the Router and if desired, a telephone or telephone device. The connection ports are typically labeled as follows: Line - This port connects to the wall jack. ADSL – This port connects to the Router.
