INTRODUCTION
This manual is intended to describe the P.DG A4001N model. P.DG A4001N
features an 802.11n 2x2 WiFi MIMO interface with two external antennas.
The P.DG A4001N is designed to provide a cost-effective mean of sharing a
single broadband Internet connection between several wired and wireless com-
puters. The Data Gateway also provides protection in the form of an electronic
“firewall” preventing anyone outside of your network from seeing your files or
damaging your computers.
The P.DG A4001N is an ADSL2+ Data Gateway, targeted to residential envi-
ronments and SOHO customers, that provides routed broadband services from
a single and modular access point.
The P.DG A4001N is the ideal solution for:
1. Connecting multiple PCs and Video game consoles;
2. Sharing broadband internet connections with all home computers;
3. Sharing printers and peripherals.

Introduction 5
It implements an high speed Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL2/2+)
connection to the telephone line on the WAN side, as well as several local con-
nectivity technologies on the LAN side:
Four switched 10/100/1000 Base-T/TX Ethernet ports
A Wi-Fi connection to hosts devices
Figure 1 shows a sample network: your Data Gateway becomes your connec-
tion to the Internet. Connections can be made directly to the Data Gateway ex-
panding the number of computers you can have in your network.

6 Introduction
DATA GATEWAY
ADVANTAGES
The advantages of the P.DG A4001N include:
Shared Internet connection for both wired and wireless computers
High speed 802.11b/g/n wireless networking
Cross-platform operation for compatibility with Microsoft® Windows, Linux
and Apple® MAC computers
Easy-to-use, Web-based setup and configuration
Centralization of all network address settings (DHCP)
A Virtual server to enable remote access to Web, FTP, and other services on
your network
A Security - Firewall protection - against Internet hacker attacks and encryp-
tion to protect wireless network traffic
APPLICATIONS
Many advantages networking features are provided by the P.DG A4001N:
Wireless and Wired LAN: the Data Gateway provides connectivity to
10/100 Mbps devices, and wireless IEEE 802.11b/g/n compatible devices,
making it easy to create a network in small offices or homes.
Internet Access: this device supports Internet access through an ADSL
connection. Since many DSL providers use PPPoE or PPPoA to establish
communications with end users, the Data Gateway includes built-in clients
for these protocols, eliminating the need to install these services on your
computer.
HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
The Data Gateway contains an integrated ADSL2+ modem and connects to the
Internet or to a remote site through the ADSL (RJ11) port. It can be connected
directly through your PCs or to a local area network using the four Fast Ethernet
LAN ports.
Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full rate ADSL2+
(ITU G.992.5) provides up to 24 Mbps downstream and 1.3 Mbps upstream.
G.lite (ITU G.992.2 or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5 Mbps downstream
and 512 kbps upstream. However, you should note that the actual rate provided
by specific service providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits.
Data passing between devices connected to your local area network can run at
up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports and up to 300 Mbps over the built-
in wireless access point.
The Data Gateway makes available one USB 2.0 host interface for advanced
added value services such as file sharing.
