Cisco 1600 Router and DSL

Hi,

I am fairly new to all the cisco gear so sorry for my ignorance. I am wondering, can i use a cisco 1600 as the router for my adsl connection. I have an adsl modem that i can put into bridge mode so i can see why it can't be done. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

starting from IOS 12.2(2)T, you can configure the 1600 as a PPPoE client. I have attached a sample config. For all info on the 1600, I would check teh Cisco website at:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps214/index.html

This sample config has other stuff as well which is probably not relevant to you. If you can access the following link, the entire sample config is in there as well:

Hello,

obviously the 1600 router itself does not support ADSL WICs. If you connect the 1600 to a bridge behind your ADSL modem, it should be no problem.

Just as i thought. I have a billion adsl Modem/router that i can put into bridge mode. However will the 1600 support PPPoE? Also, where can i get more info on the 1600? Thanks in advance!

Ok so now i need to know if the 1600 series routers can accept a WIC-1ENET. The documentation that comes with it has instructions for installation in a 1600 but it says on the site that it doesn't work?

Anyone done this before?

Hello,

the 1600 series does not support the WIC-1ENET, check this link for the hardware compatibility matrix:

WAN Interface Card (WIC) / Platform Hardware Compatibility Matrix for 1600, 1700, 2600, 3600 and 3700 Series Routers

That is what i looked at as well but why does the documentation that comes with it say Interface Card for Cisco 1600 Series, Cisco 1700 Series....etc.
