Chapter 1 Introduction the BIPAC-5100/5100W 802.11b is only supported for the BIPAC-5100W 1.1 Introducing the BIPAC-5100/5100W Welcome to the Billion BIPAC-5100(W) Router. Your Billion router is an “all-in-one” unit, combining an ADSL modem, ADSL router and Ethernet network switch, providing everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the Internet over your ADSL broadband connection.
A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built in with automatic switching between MDI and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports. An Ethernet straight or cross-over cable can be used directly for auto detection. Multi-Protocol to Establish A Connection Supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516) and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with the ISP.
Users can specify some services to be visible from outside users. The router can detect incoming service requests and forward either a single port or a range of ports to the specific local computer to handle it. For example, a user can assign a PC in the LAN acting as a WEB server inside and expose it to the outside network. Outside users can browse inside web servers directly while it is protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided to a local computer exposed to the outside network, Internet.

Chapter 5 Troubleshooting If the ADSL Router is not functioning properly, you can refer first to this chapter for simple troubleshooting before contacting your service provider. This could save your time and effort but if the symptoms persist, then consult your service provider. Problems starting up the router Problem Corrective Action None of the LEDs Check the connection between the adapter and the router. If are on when you the error persists, you may have a hardware problem.
Frequent loss of Ensure that all other devices connected to the same ADSL linesync telephone line as your router (e.g. telephones, fax machines, (disconnections). analogue modems) have a line filter connected between them and the wall socket (unless you are using a Central Splitter or Central Filter installed by a qualified and licensed electrician), and ensure that all line filters are correctly installed and the right way around.
