Your Prestige supports the TCP/ IP protocol, which the Internet uses exclusively. It is compatible with all major VDSL DSLAM (Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) providers. A DSLAM is a rack of VDSL line cards with data multiplexed into a backbone network interface/connection (for example, T1, OC3, DS3, ATM or Frame Relay).
