Advanced ADSL Modem Technology

2Wire residential gateways take advantage of an extremely low noise, high linearity ADSL Analog Front End (AFE) and digital echo canceller, providing excellent long loop and bridge tap performance.

Translation: the 2Wire design reduces the need for a technician visit and provides superior modem training capability, particularly for those customers at the edge of the DSL coverage area.

2Wire goes beyond current ADSL standards by utilizing impulse noise compensation and non-linear echo compensation to increase reliability and performance in actual ADSL enduser environments. 2Wire tests real-world conflicts such as dimmer switches, fluorescent lighting, AM radio interference, unfiltered devices connected to the ADSL line (alarm systems, water meters, and half ringers) and poor wiring. This extra step ensures a better user experience, reduces truck rolls, and eliminates lengthy troubleshooting calls.

Key Benefits

Exceeds ADSL Forum TR-067 requirements ensuring that connection performance and robustness are carrier grade
Consistently delivers the best connection rates in the industry
Dynamic Impulse Noise Compensation provides protection against interference from home lighting systems and RF interference sources

TRUN ON BORDBAND INSIDE OUT

2Wire’s HomePortal® iNID (intelligent Network Interface Device) i3802V outdoor residential gateway mounts to the side of the subscriber’s home in a hardened, weather-resistant enclosure that is easily accessible by carrier technicians. This decreases the complexity and cost of carrier “truck roll” technical installations, which are required for VDSL2 and FTTP deployments.
By transferring intelligent gateway functions and all service and network terminations to the side of the house, the 2Wire iNID eliminates the need to bring DSL into the house, thereby preventing the signal loss that is typical of in-home wiring. The location at the side of the house, near the existing telephone Network Interface Device, also allows for an easy connection to be made between the iNID’s integrated voice over IP function and the home’s existing phone wiring.
The outdoor location also provides carrier technicians with easy access to home coaxial cable wiring which can be reused to distribute high speed LAN technologies throughout the home to video set top boxes and other networked consumer devices.

Rugged outdoor design extends the carrier’s network to the edge of the home.
Industry leading home networking platform distributes high-bandwidth triple play services throughout the home.
Customer-installable power module inside the home powers this HomePortal through home phone wiring.
User replaceable integrated battery provides backup power.
Leading edge VDSL2 modem technology brings high-bandwidth broadband into the home.

Power Up. A customer-installable power module inside the home powers the iNID through the home’s existing phone wiring, while the iNID’s integrated battery provides backup power. The customer installs the power module inside the house by simply plugging it into a power outlet and a nearby phone jack. The power module includes service-indicator LEDs for troubleshooting and status notifications of services and functions.

Packs a Punch. Like all 3000 series HomePortal residential gateways, the HomePortal iNID i3802V outdoor residential gateway combines an industry-leading home networking platform with the latest developments in VDSL2 modem technology to create a powerful solution for the delivery of IP video and other high-bandwidth applications for the home. Home networking options include high speed coaxial networking (HomePNAv3), Ethernet, and an optional customer-installable plug-and-play 802.11g Wi-Fi access point. The gateway itself is packed with value-added applications such as Content Screening, Internet Access Control, Firewall Monitor, and Web Remote Access.

Everyone Wins. By moving the residential gateway to the outside of the subscriber’s home, the HomePortal iNID blurs the line between the home network and the carrier’s infrastructure. The gateway becomes part of the service provider’s network, which removes the burden of maintenance and management from the subscriber. The carrier can then provide uninterrupted or ‘warm’ services during tenant or homeowner turnover. Subscribers can at-will receive high-bandwidth broadband service, high-powered home networking features, and a secure firewall without having to wait for a technician.

Check your router's documentation (usually included the CD that came with your router) for information on how to setup your particular router's network key or call your router's manufacturer for assistance.
Step 3: Ensure your Internet connection is functioning properly (Of course the best way to test it, is with another computer that is already connected wirelessly or an ethernet cable connection).
Step 4: Ensure your wireless card or adapter is installed in your computer and turned on. (Most newer notebooks have built-in wireless adapters - ensure the wireless switch that is physically located on the notebook is turned on).

Note: If the Wireless Connection icon ( or ) does not appear in the System Tray (bottom-right portion of your screen, where the time is displayed), your wireless switch is probably not turned on or your wireless USB adapter is probably not plugged in or the Wireless Connection is 'disabled'. Repeat steps 1 - 4, before continuing

Setting up the wireless connection:

Step 5: With the right mouse button, click on the Wireless Connection icon ( or ).
Step 6: With the left mouse button, click on View Available Wireless Networks in the applicable popup menu(Connected or Not connected , respectively ).
Step 7: In the left panel, under 'Related Tasks', click 'Change the order of preferred networks' .
If your network appears in the box under 'Preferred networks', continue with step 8, otherwise skip to step 10.
Step 8: In the box under 'Preferred networks', click to select your network (SSID).Step 9: Click the 'Remove' button.Step 10: Click the 'Add...' button.

Installing A Wireless Router.

All routers come preconfigured to work with a DHCP network like Eagle Cable Internet, so you will not need the CD that comes with your router



Hooking

First run a network cable from the modem into the internet port on the back of the router. Then connect the power cable. Finally, run an additional network cable from any one of the ports labeled 1-4 to the computers. (If the router has been used with a different internet provider, it is a good idea to reset the router. Do this by holding down the reset button for a few seconds.) Any computers that are connected directly to the router should connect automatically after a restart.
Preparations:
Step 1: Ensure your computer is turned on (If using a wireless PCI card, make sure it is installed in the computer while the computer is turned off.)
Step 2: Ensure your wireless access point (wireless router) has a Network Key already setup and is connected to the cable modem or dsl modem and turned on.Note: You can configure most routers by typing http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 in the Web browser's (Internet Explorer, Netscape, etc.) Address bar.
