The Prestige is a high-performance cost-effective VDSL (Very High Speed Digital 
Subscriber Line) modem. Your Prestige can access the Internet/LAN via a 
telephone line. The Prestige supports symmetric and asymmetric transmission 
speeds of 5, 10 and 15Mbps. The actual rate depends on the copper category of 
your telephone wires, distance from the central office and the type of VDSL 
service you subscribe to. Its 10/100M auto-negotiating LAN interface enables fast 
data transfer of either 10Mbps or 100Mbps in half-duplex or full-duplex mode 
depending on your Ethernet network. See the following section for more 
background information on VDSL. Your Prestige is easy to install. You do not 
need to do any configuration. All the configuration is done at the DSLAM end.
