Wireless Modems and Gateways
These are most often supplied by the customer's DSL ISP. Some modems have built in security features that need to be addressed such as firewalls and attack/intrusion detection (ADS) features that will either block the service or cause Packet Loss (buffering).
This is corrected by:
- Disabling the firewall or other security features (Attack/Intrusion Detecion)
- Bridging the modem to a router (if you are not using a wireless gateway)
Most Common Wireless Gateways:
Speedstream 4100/4200 | Speedstream 5100/5200/5400/5500 | 2-Wire 2701 | |
---|---|---|---|
Westell 2100/2200/6100 | Netopia 2210 | Westell 327W | |
ActionTec M1000 | BEC 7300 | ActionTec GT704 | |
Speedstream 6520 | Gigaset SE567 | ||
