Features and applications
The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable's wide range of features make it ideal for a large number of
applications, such as:
◆ Setting up a local network
The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable provides connections
– for four devices via Ethernet ports with a transmission speed of 10 or 100 Mbps.
– for up to 253 mobile terminals via a wireless interface with a transmission speed
of 54 Mbps. Here it complies with Standard IEEE 802.11g – i.e. the router can be
used together with products of several other manufacturers.
Using a Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable makes it easy to set up a network at home or in small
offices. For example, users can exchange data or share resources on the network,
such as a file server or printer.
With the Gigaset devices for wireless networks you can operate a LAN – as envisaged
in Standard IEEE 802.11 – in Ad-hoc mode and in Infrastructure mode.
The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable supports DHCP for dynamic IP configuration of the local
network and DNS for Domain name mapping.
◆ Internet access
The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable permits Internet access via a WAN socket with a
transmission speed of 10 or 100 Mbps. You can connect a DSL or cable modem to
this socket.
– Since many DSL providers permit communication with end users with the PPPoE
protocol, the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable has an integrated Client for this protocol, so
you no longer have to install this service on your computer.
– Shared IP address
If your Internet Service Provider permits this, the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable can
make do with a single IP address for up to 253 users. Several users on your
network can then surf the Internet at the same time using only one Internet
Service Provider account.
◆ Virtual Private Network (VPN)
The Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable supports three of the most common Protocols for
setting up a Virtual Private Network: PPTP, L2TP and IPSec. This allows you to
connect devices at different locations via the Internet securely, if your Internet
Service Provider offers this service.
