6212-A2 and 6382-A1 ADSL Router User’s Guide
1. Introduction
Congratulations on becoming the owner of a 6212 or 6382 router. Your LAN (Local Area Network) will now be
able to access the Internet via the router’s ADSL connection.
This User Manual will show you how to set up the 6212 or 6382 router, and how to customize its configuration to get the
most out of this product.
1.1 Features & System Requirements
The 6212 router supports ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line), a version of DSL that allows a higher speed
for information coming from the Internet to your PC (“downstream”) than it does for information going to the
Internet from your PC (“upstream”).
The 6382 router supports ADSL/R, a technology that combines ADSL and ReachDSL in one device. ReachDSL is a
