Typically, in networking, asynchronous means either that it can both send and receive at random, without needing to 'wait' for synchronization, or in the case of DSL, it means the Upstream and Downstream are not the same, which is typical of any internet connection.
IE, Cable at 8mbit download typically has 256 kbit (0.25 mbit) upstream. It can download at 1MB/s but only upload at 32KB/s. (8mbit = 1 mbyte)
Some DSL connections, such as SDSL and GDSL, have synchronous transfer rates, meaning they send data as fast as they download it. This is not common.

Can a wireless router work without a modem?
It depends on what you are using it for. I am using one with no modem to connect to my printer.
How many flip-flops are needed in an up-asynchronous counter which can count up to 64?
6
What is the advantage of asynchronous circuits over synchronous circuits?
mainly power consumption decreases in asynchronous chips they works based on time(i.e., when its term comes) but programming is of asynchronous chips are more difficult task because of we have to switch ON the chips one by one for that we have to determine the exact time that a single chip takes to complete its given instruction after completion we have to switch on the another chip. while in the sych..chips single clock circulates entire system and all the chips should be in working state
Modem use what type op transmission?
asynchronous
Why the synchronous modems are more costly than the asynchronous modems?
Because they contain clock recovery circuits
Is d-link 924 a g router?
Yes. According to my research, the DLink 924 is a Wireless b/g router (max speed 54Mbps) and ADSL (Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line) modem.

Exactly What An ADSL Modem Wireless Router Does?
When talking about an ADSL modem wireless router, the acronym stands for asynchronous digital subscriber line. The DSL portion of the router name denotes that it accepts connections from a DSL line. When the router is specified as being asynchronous, it refers to the differences in the speed of uploads and downloads. ADSL routers generally download much faster than they send information, sometimes as much as 10 or 20 times faster. This only becomes an issue for applications such as video conferencing or playing online games, where upload speeds are important for a smooth experience.

What is syncronous modem?
Synchronous and Asynchronous data transfer are two methods of sending data over a phone line. In synchronous data transmission, data is sent via a bit-stream, which sends a group of characters in a single stream In order to do this, modems gather groups of characters into a buffer, where they are prepared to be sent as such a stream. In order for the stream to be sent, synchronous modems must be in perfect synchronization with each other. They accomplish this by sending special characters, called synchronization, or syn, characters. When the clocks of each modem are in synchronization, the data stream is sent. In asynchronous transmission, data is coded into a series of pulses, including a start bit and a stop bit. A start bit is sent by the sending modem to inform the receiving modem that a character is to be sent. The character is then sent, followed by a stop bit designating that the transfer of that bit is complete.
Why is uart asynchronous?
Uart basically stands universal asynchronous receiver transmitter.As it is asynchronous so there is no need for synchronization between transmitter and receiver.For detailed information click on to www.wikipedia .org.

What is the function of DB25?
The DB25 connector was designed by Bell Labs to connect a variety of different modems to terminals. At the time the phone company owned all the wires and everything that connected directly to them, thus they owned your phone and any modem you used with a terminal to connect to tymeshare services. The 25 pin cable that connected the DB25 (DCE) on the modem to the DB25 (DTE) on your terminal was owned by you. Thus the DB25 connector on the modem was the property line that allowed you access to use the phone line for digital data via a phone company owned modem. This was eventually standardized as RS-232.It was your responsibility to set the DIP switches on your terminal to be compatible with the phone company owned modem that they supplied. The most common early modem was the 300 BAUD asynchronous full duplex modem but the 1200 BAUD asynchronous half duplex modem was also available. Both used the same DB25 but the half duplex modem used some additional wires for handshake to switch line direction, under control of the modem. There were also higher speed synchronous modems that generated clocks for your terminal, the clocks used more additional wires. All 25 pins are preassigned some modem related function in RS-232.After the law was changed to allow third party devices to connect directly to the phone line, there was much innovation and much faster modems (most asynchronous full duplex). The DB25 was still usually used to connect to these modems but it no longer defined a property line, it was just the connectors on the cable. Eventually modem companies started making cards that plugged into desktop computers and the phone line plugged into the card, making the DB25 obsolete.The DB25 and the RS-232 standard have been much misused, to connect all sorts of devices that are not modems to computers... who is the "modem" and who is the "terminal". These devices often use handshake lines in ways that are illegal by RS-232, or use lines that RS-232 reserves for special but rarely used modem functions.
