The following table describes the fields in this screen.
6.3 The 3G Backup Screen
The USB ports (at the left side panel of the VMG) allow you to attach a 3G dongle to wirelessly
connect to a 3G network for Internet access. You can have the VMG use the 3G WAN connection as
a backup. Disconnect the DSL and Ethernet WAN ports to use the 3G dongle as your primary WAN
connection. The VMG automatically uses a wired WAN connection when available.
Note: This VMG supports connecting one 3G dongle at a time.

Type Select ADSL/VDSL over PTM as the interface that you want to configure. The VMG uses
the VDSL technology for data transmission over the DSL port.

NAT on traffic from the selected LAN port(s).
VLAN This section is available only when you select ADSL/VDSL over PTM in the Type field.
