WireSpeed Dual Connect NAT Router User Guide
1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Westell’s WireSpeed
™ Dual Connect NAT Router adds reliable, high-speed, Internet access to your existing home
or office phone line. Your ADSL connection is “always-on” ending the hassles of dial-up modems and busy signals.
Installation is easy ... no tools ... no headaches. Simply connect the hardware, apply power, and perform the simple
software configuration for your Dual Connect Router.
This Router is capable of data rates hundreds of times faster than a traditional analog modem. But unlike analog
modems, Westell’s WireSpeed
™ Dual Connect NAT Router allows you to use the same phone line for simultaneous
voice/fax communications and high-speed Internet access, eliminating the need for dedicated phone lines for voice
and data needs. The Plug and Play feature means that no user configuration is required.
NOTE: Hereafter, the Westell
® WireSpeed ™ Dual Connect NAT Router will be referred to as “Dual Connect
Router” or “Router.”
