P-660H-Tx v2 Support Notes
 
4. How do I know the P-660H-Tx v2's WAN IP address assigned by the 
ISP? 
You can view "My WAN IP <from ISP> : x.x.x.x" shown in Web Configurator 
‘Status->Device Information ->WAN Information’ to check this IP address.    
5. What is the micro filter or splitter used for
Generally, the voice band uses the lower frequency ranging from 0 to 4KHz, 
while ADSL data transmission uses the higher frequency. The micro filter acts 
as a low-pass filter for your telephone set to ensure that ADSL transmissions 
do not interfere with your voice transmissions. For the details about how to 
connect the micro filter please refer to the user's manual. 
6. The P-660H-Tx v2 supports Bridge and Router mode, what's the 
difference between them?
 
When the ISP limits some specific computers to access Internet, which means 
only the traffic to/from these computers will be forwarded and the other will be 
filtered. In this case, we use bridge mode which works as an ADSL modem to 
connect to the ISP. The ISP will generally give one Internet account and limit 
only one computer to access the Internet. 
 
For most Internet users having multiple computers want to share an Internet 
account for Internet access, they have to add another Internet sharing device, 
like a router. In this case, we use the router mode which works as a general 
Router plus an ADSL Modem. 
7. How do I know I am using PPPoE?   
PPPoE requires a user account to login to the provider's server. If you need to 
configure a user name and password on your computer to connect to the ISP 
you are probably using PPPoE. If you are simply connected to the Internet 
when you turn on your computer, you probably are not. You can also check 
your ISP or the information sheet given by the ISP. Please choose PPPoE as 
the encapsulation type in the P-660H-Tx v2 if the ISP uses PPPoE.   
8. Why does my provider use PPPoE?   
PPPoE emulates a familiar Dial-Up connection. It allows your ISP to provide 
services using their existing network configuration over the broadband 
connections. Besides, PPPoE supports a broad range of existing applications 
and service including authentication, accounting, secure access and 
configuration management.
