connect the phone.
(4) Do not put heavy objects on top of the MT880.
(5) Do not spill liquid of any kind onto the MT880. And keep the unit clean
and in a dry environment.
(6) Break off the power supply in a stormy weather.

(10) When not in use, please power off the MT880;
(11) Do not use junction boxes before connecting the ADSL Router, which
have such components like capacitors or diodes that could hinder back
high frequency signals.
Note: When MT880 has been used for a long time, the surface of the
shell will reach a certain temperature. Don’t worry, this is a natural
phenomenon and the Router can still work normally.

switch does not process data traffic. That is, you don’t need to pay
extra telephone fee for accessing the Internet.
4. Is there any possibility of losing voice quality by using ADSL Router
or threatening data rate by calling simultaneously?
FDM technology is used here to separate the voice and data traffic, which
are totally independent to each other with standard frequency design. Even
you make phone call while accessing the Internet, that will not cause the
