Router

The Router page shows the firmware versions and WAN and LAN interface status.

Firmware Version:

This field displays the NetComm firmware version number on the router.

Customer Software Version: This field displays the software interface version on the router. Firmware updates can be downloaded from the NetComm website when available.

WAN:

These fields display the current IP address, Subnet Mask and MAC address for the WAN

(ADSL) interface. This address is supplied by your ISP either automatically or using a static assigned address.

LAN:

These fields display the IP address, Subnet Mask and MAC address for the LAN interface.

Number of Ethernet Devices Connected to the DHCP Server: This field displays the number of DHCP clients connected to the NB1300Plus4. It also shows the IP address and

ADSL

The ADSL Status page shows the ADSL physical layer status.

ADSL Line Status: This field displays the ADSL connection process and status.

ADSL Modulation: This field displays the ADSL modulation status for G.dmt or T1.413.

ADSL Annex Mode:

This field displays the ADSL annex modes for Annex A or Annex B.

ADSL Startup Attempts: loss of showtime.

This field displays the ADSL connection attempts after

Elapsed Time: This field displays the time of the modem has been in operation.

SNR Margin:

Amount of increased noise that can be tolerated while maintaining the designed BER (bit error rate). The SNR Margin is set by Central Office DSLAM. If the SNR

Margin is increased, bit error rate performance will improve, but the data rate will decrease.

Conversely, if the SNR Margin is decreased, bit error rate performance will decrease, but the data rate will increase.

Line Attenuation:

Attenuation is the decrease in magnitude of the ADSL line signal between the transmitter (Central Office DSLAM) and the receiver (Client ADSL Modem), measured in dB. It is measured by calculating the difference in dB between the signal power level received at the Client ADSL modem and the reference signal power level transmitted from the Central Office DSLAM.

Errored Seconds: The error during Showtime (ADSL link), whenever, a given sec contains

CRC error, that second will be declared error second.

Loss of Signal: This field displays the count of event of ADSL signal loss.

Loss of Frame:

This field displays the count of event of ADSL frame loss.

CRC Errors: This field displays the number of transmit data frames containing CRC errors.

Data Rate: This field displays the ADSL data rate.

Latency:

This field displays the latency modes for fast or interleave.
