Description of Hardware
You can connect the SpeedStream 2614 DSL/Cable Router to the Internet or to a remote site using its RJ-

using any of the four Fast Ethernet LAN ports. The SpeedStream 2614 can even function as a print server.
Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate ADSL provides up to 8 Mbps
downstream and 640 Mbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5 Mbps downstream
and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems can provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream.
ISDN can provide up to 128 Kbps when using two bearer channels. And PSTN analog connections can
now run up to 56 Kbps. However, you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service
providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits.

Although access speed to the Internet is determined by the service and type of modem connected to your
SpeedStream 2614, data passing between devices connected to your local area network can run up to
100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports!
