Cisco 2500 with DSL

bsheikh · ‎06-02-2005

hi there, I have two cisco 2500 routers, having AUI interfaces. both locations have DSL connection from verizon,. is there anyway i can use these routers with DSL if yes then do i need to buy any special module

Hello,

unfortunately, the 2500 does not support xDSL. You need to get e.g. a 1700 or 2600 with an ADSL module.

or you can guide me how we can use cisco 2500 with current LAN topology using DSL. and with Intel 24 port managed switch

Hello.

the only way I could see you router being integrated into a DSL solution is by connecting the Ethernet port of your ADSL router/modem to the Ethernet AUI port of your 2500. But unless you have a 2514 (which has two Ethernet ports), that would still not get you anywhere, since you need an additional Ethernet port to connect your switch...
