Preface
Thank you for placing your trust in this devolo product.
With the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router, you have chosen an ADSL
router that innovatively combines the functions and advantages of an ADSL
modem, a switch, a router and a dLAN adapter in a single device. This com
-
bination makes it the optimal, user-friendly network and Internet access solu-
tion for small-office and home-office (SOHO) environments.
The router's ADSL modem provides satisfyingly fast Internet access:
Download speeds of up to 8 Mbps make transferring music files,
video material, graphics and other high-volume data a pleasure.
With upload speeds of up to 1 Mbps, you can easily send large e-mail
attachments quickly and at low cost.
It also serves as an optimal combination of Internet-access router and
network switch:
The router simplifies the installation of Internet access significantly,
as no special drivers are required for the connected individual com
-
puters. The access protocol has been implemented in the router
itself.
The router functionality lets multiple users access the Internet at the
same time. DHCP automates the TCP/IP configuration of the con
-
nected computers. The router can be configured conveniently using a
Web browser.
The integrated switch is the foundation for small networks. Up to four
computers can be connected simultaneously. Each of the four ports
can also be used as an uplink port to connect additional routers,
switches or hubs.
Thanks to its integrated dLAN technology, the device can use your house-
hold electrical wiring as a network:
PCs in different rooms or on different floors of a building can thus
communicate with other computers in the network and/or access the
DSL connection via your household wiring by adding further dLAN
adapters—without the need to lay network cables.

1 Introduction
1.1 What is ADSL?
The sheer speed of development of computer technology over the last few
years has resulted in a huge increase in the volume of electronic data traffic.
More users every day want to send and receive a constantly increasing vol
-
ume of data. Conventional transmission technologies (analog modems or
ISDN devices) are no longer equal to the demand.
New technologies are eliminating the restrictions and are offering the user
true broadband communications at significantly higher transfer speeds. An
important criterion for the spread of these access technologies is their avail
-
ability in as many offices and private households as possible. One of the tech-
nologies is transfer by ADSL, which bridges the section of the network that
connects to the customer (“the last mile”) over standard copper wires. ADSL
can thus be used for broadband access to the Internet, for example.
ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) technology uses three different
ranges of a conventional copper telephone line—two for data communica
-
tions and one for telephone service. The term 'Asymmetric' indicates that the
transmitting and receiving channels can carry different quantities of data:
When the user surfs the Internet, the data sent to the Internet Service
Provider (ISP) tend to carry less information (e.g. addresses of web sites
or e-mails). The transmission rate of up to 1 Mbps is generally sufficient
for this purpose.
To load multimedia content (video sequences, animations, images etc.)
onto the computer from the Internet at acceptable quality and speed, a
transmission rate of up to 8 Mbps brings a significant saving in cost and
time.
1.2 What exactly is dLAN?
There is now a new alternative to the well-known wired LAN and Wireless
LAN network technologies: dLAN (direct LAN, i.e. directly networked). dLAN
is networking using the electric wiring already installed in the building.

Cost factor and transmission quality
dLAN is an especially easy-to-use networking technology. You don't need to
lay cables and you can connect to the network at every power point.
The dLAN standard modulates and demodulates additional frequencies on
the power lines. Modulation and demodulation is a well-known and proven
method of data transmission, which has been in use in other applications for
a number of years. Now it is used to set up Internet and network accesses.
Depending on the attenuation factor, dLAN is capable of covering distances
of at least 200 meters.
With a maximum data rate of 14 Mbps and symmetrical upload and download
speeds, dLAN is comparable to traditional Ethernet network solutions and the
current WIFI
TM
wireless standard for home applications.
Data security and radiation
DES
pro
bit encryption is used, which guarantees secure data transfer within
the network.
dLAN devices from devolo meet the stringent EU industrial standards and
comply with the current standards for electromagnetic radiation. Its radiation
level is actually well below that of Wireless LAN technologies.
1.3 What does the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem
Router have to offer?
The following is an outline of the principal features of the device giving you
a quick overview of its capabilities.
Simple installation
Connect computers in your LAN (Ethernet) to the switch of the MicroLink
dLAN ADSL Modem Router, or connect them to your household electrical
power network as a dLAN using HomePlug adapters
Connect the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router to the ADSL line using
the ADSL cable
Connect the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router to your household
electrical power network using the AC power cable
Set up the dLAN network with the MicroLink dLAN Configuration Wizard
Configure Internet access using the setup wizard
That's it!

Versatile networking
The MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router lets you choose how you would
like to connect your PCs to the Internet—via your household electrical net
-
work or a conventional network cable. Both options are no problem. Thanks
to its integrated 4-port switch, the computers connected to the MicroLink
dLAN ADSL Modem Router form an internal network with transfer rates of up
to 100 Mbps. In addition, the network can be expanded using the integrated
HomePlug technology without the need for laying additional cables. Each PC
simply needs a MicroLink dLAN connected to an electrical outlet. With dLAN,
you can connect to the Internet, exchange data, share printers or play exciting
multiplayer games from any room of your house.

2.2 Connecting the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem
Router
Preconditions
Your MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router requires a computer running an
operating system with network support (e.g. Windows 98, Windows Me,
Windows 2000, Windows XP, MAC OS X, Linux) connected to the MicroLink
dLAN ADSL Modem Router either via LAN (Ethernet) or dLAN (power line).
Connecting via LAN (Ethernet)
To connect a computer to the integrated switch via LAN, use a UTP-CAT5
(Unshielded Twisted Pair, Category 5) network cable with RJ45 plugs,
also known as a patch cable. The computer must have a free LAN port
(RJ45).
Connecting via dLAN (household power network)
Connecting a computer via dLAN requires an additional dLAN adapter
connected to a suitable port (Ethernet, USB, WLAN) of your computer.
쐃쐇
RJ11 socket for cable to ADSL port.
RJ45 sockets for network cables (patch cables, at least UTP
CAT5) to connect computers in the LAN or additional
switches.
Button for manual reset. If this button is pressed for longer
than five seconds, all of the stored configuration data will be
deleted and the router will be restored to its factory defaults.

Connect the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router to an AC outlet using
the AC adapter. Turn on the power with the switch on the back. The blue
'Power' LED on the front panel will light up.
Connect the ADSL cable to the 'ADSL' socket on your router and to the
ADSL connection.
Next, use network cables to connect up to four computers to the router's
RJ45 socket and start the connected computers. The associated 'Link/
Act' control lamps light up.
It is important to always start the router before the computers so that the
computers can receive their address configuration from the router while boot-
ing.
As each of the ports also functions as an uplink port, you may connect either
a computer or an additional switch (hub) to any of the 4 ports, should you
need to link more than 4 computers. Thanks to Auto MDI/X, you can use
either crossover or normal twisted-pair cables. An LED labeled 'Link/Act' will
be lit on the front panel for every computer or switch (hub) which is connected
and powered up.
Computers can also be connected to the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem
Router via your household electrical power network (dLAN) as an alterna
-
tive to the switch, or in addition to it. Simply connect your computers to
household power outlets using dLAN adapters. The dLAN adapters of the
computers and the integrated dLAN adapter in the power supply of the
MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router will function as a dLAN network.
For more information on configuring the dLAN network, please turn to
chapter
“Configuring the dLAN network with the MicroLink dLAN Config-
uration Wizard” on page 42. For details on connecting and configuring
your dLAN adapters, please refer to the documentation of the adapters.

3 Router configuration
This chapter will explain how to set up Internet access and how to take
advantage of additional functions and settings of your router with advanced
configuration.
If you intend to use a computer connected via dLAN to configure the router,
you must set up the dLAN network first. For more information, please see
“Configuring the dLAN network with the MicroLink dLAN Configuration Wiz-
ard” on page 41.
The configuration of the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router can be broken
down into the following steps:
Check and configure the DHCP parameters and a number of other settings
of the computers in the network
Set up Internet access
Configure additional router functions
We recommend using the setup wizard to configure the DHCP parameters
and set up Internet access. It will assist you with the most important settings
and make suggestions for the required configuration steps (
“Setting up Inter-
net access using the setup wizard” on page 15).
Alternatively, you may also set up Internet access using browser-based con-
figuration (“Setting up Internet access manually” on page 16).
The additional functions of the router must be set up manually using the
browser-based configuration (
“Advanced configuration” on page 17).
If you have switched the router's power off and back on, or reset the router
using the 'Factory Default' switch or settings dialogs, you must then also
restart all of the connected computers to update the TCP/IP information.
3.1 Setting up Internet access using the setup
wizard
If you are using a computer with a Windows operating system to configure
the router, you have the option of using the setup wizard.

'IP Address', 'Gateway' and 'Subnet Mask' are data about your Inter-
net connection, which you obtain from your ISP.
'PPP' is a connection protocol.
'Service Name', 'User Name', 'Password' are data about your Internet
connection, which you obtain from your ISP.
'Disconnect Timeout': This function (default setting: '5') lets you set a
time limit so that you can control your connection charges and reduce
costs based on time. If the router does not receive any data packets
for the amount of time specified by the idle time setting, it automati
-
cally disconnects from the Internet server. As soon as it receives a
request to connect after disconnecting automatically, it automatically
reestablishes a connection (if you have enabled the option 'Recon
-
nect on Internet access').
The 'Timeout Configuration' link will take you directly to the 'PPP Disconnect
Timeout'. For more information go to the section “Advanced configuration”
on page 17.
In the interests of cost control, ensure that you do not have Internet services
such as e-mail clients, file sharing services or news tickers enabled in your
local network, as these will periodically access the Internet. If you have flat-
rate service from your Internet provider (unlimited online time without addi

Reset to Factory Default
To reset the router to its factory defaults, select 'Reset to Factory Default' and
confirm your choice with the Reset button, or press and hold the 'Factory
Default' button on the rear panel of the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router
briefly. This will restart the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem Router. Next,

process. The router will restart automatically when the firmware update is
complete.
The router switches into a special mode during firmware uploads; the ADSL
module is disabled in this mode, for example. Configuration functions and
Internet access are also disabled during this process. The router will remain
in this mode—even if the power is switched off—until the new firmware has
been successfully loaded or the update process canceled.
When the firmware update is complete, it is necessary to reset the router to
its factory defaults by pressing the button on the rear panel of the device.
When the router restarts, the 'Connect' LED will be lit for around 1 minute. Do
not interrupt this process! Switching the MicroLink dLAN ADSL Modem
Router off during this time can irreparably damage the router's firmware.

3.3.7 Advanced
These functions are advanced functions which have been preset for optimal
use. Normally, it is not necessary to modify these settings.
Virtual Server
You can use 'Virtual Server' to activate (via IP address) a certain service (spe-
cified by port number) for specific local computers for direct access from the
Internet (e.g. for web, FTP or e-mail servers). If you want to use this option,
dynamic IP address assignment must be disabled on the particular computer,
and a static IP address assigned.
'Port Start': Enter the WAN port number for the service, e.g. port 25 for e-
mail.
'Port End': Enter the WAN port number for the service, e.g. port 25 for e-
mail.
'Private Port Start': Enter the LAN port number for the service.
The port number in the LAN may differ from that in the WAN, i.e. within your
local network, you can assign port numbers that are different to conventional
WAN numbers. In such cases, the router simply diverts the service to the
relevant port.
'Port Type': This is where you select the appropriate protocol, e.g. 'TCP'.
'Host IP Address': This is where you enter the IP address of your local
server, e.g. 192.168.0.249.
Confirm your entries by clicking on Add.
DDNS
The Dynamic Domain Name System is an extension to DNS and controls the
assignment of dynamic IP addresses for fixed host names (i.e. computer

names). New IP numbers as assigned by the ISP are automatically forwarded
to the DDNS provider so that a plain-text name (e.g. www.devolo.com) is
constantly available despite the varying IP address.
'Dynamic DNS Enabled': This is where you activate the DDNS function.
'DDNS Server': Host name of the DDNS server.
'Update Type': The is where you select the various DNS products
'static', 'dyndns' and 'custom'.
More information is available from www.dyndns.org.
'Username': This is where you enter the user name given to you by
your DDNS provider.
'Password': This is where you enter the password given to you by your
DDNS provider.
'Host Name ...': Under host name 0 to 4 you enter each of the fixed
computer names (e.g. www.example.dyndns.org).
Route Table
If there are multiple routers on your network, it is useful to set presets for the
routing. The 'Route Table' contains the current routing data. The gateway

'Gateway': 'IP Address' of the next router over which the destination
network can be reached.
'Interface' is the interface over which the target network can be rea-
ched.
PPP Disconnect Timeout
Use 'PPP Disconnect Timeout' to define filters for the idle time. These filters
can be used to accept or discard certain data packets.
The idle time function (default setting: '5') lets you set a time limit so that you
can control your connection charges and reduce costs based on time. If the
router does not receive any admitted data packets for the amount of time spe
