Information on ADSL Router

An ADSL router is used in ADSL broadband Internet access to separate a customer's local network from the ADSL network operator's network. In order to allow multiple network devices on the internal network to share a single IP address allocated by the ADSL ISP (Internet service provider), an ADSL router normally includes a NAT router. An ADSL router may provide a number of ports for the local network; one common configuration provides four 100baseT, 100 Mbps Ethernet lines.
     An ADSL router is usually integrated with the ADSL modem.
