Device Name This field displays the current name of this device.
Device Mode Select the desired device mode for the router:
  • Router - Both the ADSL Modem and the Router features are operational. In this mode, this device can provide shared Internet Access to all your LAN users. Also, by default, it acts a DHCP Server, providing an IP address and related information to all LAN users.
  • Modem - Only the ADSL Modem component is operational. All Router features are disabled. This device is "transparent" - it does not perform any operations or make any changes to the network traffic passing through it. You need to have a DHCP Server on your LAN to provide IP addresses to the clients using this Access Point.

After changing the mode, this device will restart, which will take a few seconds. The menu will also change, depending on the mode you are in.
