Introduction

The Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) WAN interface card (WIC) is a 1-port WIC for the modular Access Routers such as the Cisco 1700, 2600, 3600, and 3700 Series Routers. The card provides ADSL high-speed digital data transfer between a single customer premises equipment (CPE) subscriber and the central office. The ADSL WAN interface card (WIC-1ADSL) is referred to as the Cisco ADSL WIC card throughout this page.

This document helps you verify that your DSL router complies with the minimum hardware and software requirements needed in order to use the Cisco ADSL WIC.
