Introduction
1.1 Introducing the myGuard 7202(G)
Thank you for purchasing the myGuard 7202(G) ADSL Router by Billion. Your new router is
an all-in-one unit that combines an ADSLmodem, ADSLrouter and Ethernet network switch
to provide everything you need to get the machines on your network connected to the
Internet over an ADSL broadband connection.
The myGuard 7202(G) router complies with ADSL2+ standards for deployment worldwide
and supports downstream rates of up to 24 Mbps and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps.
Designed for small office, home office and residential users, the myGuard router enables
even faster Internet connections. You can enjoy ADSL services and broadband multimedia
applications such as interactive gaming, video streaming and real-time audio much easier
and faster than ever before.
The myGuard 7202(G) supports PPPoA(RFC 2364 – PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) over
ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC 1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over
Ethernet (RFC 2516), and IPoA (RFC1577) to establish a connection with your ISP. Your
new router also supports VC-based and LLC-based multiplexing.
The perfect solution for connecting a small group of PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet
connection, the myGuard 7202(G) allows multiple users to have high-speed Internet access
simultaneously.
Your new myGuard router also serves as an Internet firewall, protecting your network from
access by outside users. Not only does it provide a natural firewall function with Network
Address Translation (NAT), it also provides rich firewall features to secure your network. All
incoming data packets are monitored and filtered. You can also configure your new router to
block internal users from accessing the Internet.
The myGuard 7202(G) provides two levels of security support. First, it masks LAN IP
1

addresses making them invisible to outside users on the Internet, so it is much more difficult
for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Second, it can block and redirect certain
ports to limit the services that outside users can access. To ensure that games and other
Internet applications run properly, you can open specific ports for outside users to access
internal services on your network.
The Integrated DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) client and server services allow
multiple users to get IP addresses automatically when the myGuard router boots up. Simply
set local machines as a DHCP client to accept a dynamically assigned IP address from the
DHCP server and reboot. Each time a local machine is powered up; the router recognizes it
and assigns an IP address to instantly connect it to the LAN.
For advanced users, Virtual Service (port forwarding) functions allow the product to provide
limited visibility to local machines with specific services for outside users. You can set an
ISP (Internet Service Provider) provided IP address on the myGuard 7202(G) and then you
can reroute specific services to individual computers on your local network. For instance, a
dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the myGuard router and then
incoming requests for web pages that are received by the router can be rerouted to your
dedicated local web server, even though the server now has a different IP address.
Virtual Server can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, you can
set the myGuard router to allow separated FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share
the same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and LAN users from
hackers.

1.2 Features
Express Internet Access – ADSL2/2+ capable
The myGuard 7202(G) complies with ADSL worldwide standards. Supporting downstream
rates of 8Mbps withADSL, the myGuard router is capable of up to 12/24 Mbps with
ADSL2/2+, and upstream rates of up to 1 Mbps. Users enjoy not only high-speed ADSL
services but also broadband multimedia applications such as interactive gaming, video
streaming and real-time audio which are easier and faster than ever. The myGuard router is
compliant with Multi-Mode standard (ANSI T1.413, Issue 2; G.dmt (ITU G.992.1); G.hs (ITU
G994.1); G.dmt.bis (ITU G.992.3); and G.dmt.bisplus (ITU G.992.5)
Trend Micro powered Vulnerability Assessment Service
After activation, the Vulnerability Assessment service helps protect your PC and entire home
network by scanning weak points and generating a security report. The report shows where
your PC is vulnerable and advises you how to focus your efforts more effectively to prevent
viruses and other threats from damaging your PC.
Trend Micro powered Security Services
Offering a 60-day FREE evaluation period, Trend Micro powered Security Services provide
Anti-Virus,Anti-Spam, and Parental Controls on a subscription basis. For extra protection,
parents or caregivers can pre-define or block user access to website categories, such as
pornography, violence or others, a list which is dynamically updated by the security service
provider. To take advantage of the full Trend Micro powered Security Services, you can
purchase the package on-line and continue to use it for one year.
Fast Ethernet Switch
A 4-port 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet switch is built-in with automatic switching between MDI
and MDI-X for 10Base-T and 100Base-TX ports, with auto dection allowing you to use either
straight or cross-over Ethernet cables.
Multi-Protocol to Establish a Connection
The myGuard router supports PPPoA (RFC 2364 - PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5), RFC
1483 encapsulation over ATM (bridged or routed), PPP over Ethernet (RFC 2516) and IPoA
(RFC1577) to establish a connection with an ISP. The router also supports VC-based and
LLC-based multiplexing.
Quick Installation Wizard
A web-based GUI and quick installation wizard help you easily install the myGuard 7202(G).
Enter your ISP’s information and begin browsing the Internet immediately.
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) and UPnP NAT Traversal
This protocol is used to enable simple and robust connectivity among stand-alone devices
3

and PCs from many different vendors, and it makes setting up a network simple and
affordable. UPnP architecture leverages TCP/IP and the Web to enable proximity
networking in addition to control and data transfer among networked devices. With this
feature enabled, you can seamlessly connect to Net Meeting or MSN Messenger.
Network Address Translation
Network Address Translation (NAT) allows multiple users to access outside resources such
as the Internet simultaneously with one IP address/one Internet access account. Many
application layer gateways (ALG) are supported such as web browser, ICQ, FTP, Telnet,
E-mail, News, Net2phone, Ping, NetMeeting, IP phone and others.
Firewall
NAT technology supports simple firewalls and provides options for blocking access from the
Internet, like Telnet, FTP, TFTP, WEB, SNMP and IGMP.
Domain Name System Relay
Domain Name System (DNS) relay provides an easy way to map a domain name with a
user-friendly name such as www.billion.com with an IP address. When a local machine sets
its DNS server to the router’s IP address, every DNS conversion request packet from the PC
to this router is forwarded to the real DNS on the outside network.
Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname.
This dynamic IP address is the WAN IP address. To use the service, you must first apply for
an account from a DDNS service such as http://www.dyndns.org/.
PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
The myGuard 7202(G) provides an embedded PPPoE client function to establish a
connection. You get greater access speed without changing the operation concept, while
sharing the same ISP account and paying for one access account. No PPPoE client
software is required for the local computer. Automatic Reconnect and Disconnect Timeout
(Idle Timer) functions are also provided.
Quality of Service (QoS)
QoS gives you full control over which types of outgoing data traffic should be given priority
by the router, ensuring important data like gaming packets, customer information, or
management information move through the router ay lightning speed, even under heavy
load. The QoS features are configurable by source IP address, destination IP address,
protocol, and port. You can throttle the speed at which different types of outgoing data pass
through the router, to ensure P2P users don’t saturate upload bandwidth, or office browsing
doesn’t bring client web serving to a halt. In addition, or alternatively, you can simply change
the priority of different types of upload data and let the router sort out the actual speeds.

Virtual Server:
You can specify which services are visible to outside users. The myGuard router detects an
incoming service request and forwards it to the specific local computer for handling. For
example, you can assign a PC in a LAN to act as a Web server inside and expose it to the
outside network. Outside users can browse inside the web server directly while it is
protected by NAT. A DMZ host setting is also provided for local computers exposed to the
outside Internet network.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Client and Server
On a WAN site, the DHCP client obtains an IP address from the Internet Service Provider
(ISP) automatically. On a LAN site, the DHCP server allocates a range of client IP
addresses, including subnet masks and DNS IP addresses and distributes them to local
computers. This provides an easy way to manage the local IP network.
Rich Packet Filtering
This feature filters the packet based on IP addresses as well as Port numbers. Filtering
packets to and from the Internet provides a higher level of security control.
Static and RIP1/2 Routing
An easy static routing table or RIP1/2 routing protocol supports routing capability.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
SNMP allows convenient remote management of the router.
Web-based GUI
A web-based GUI offers easy configuration and management. User-friendly and with on-line
help, it also supports remote management capability for remote users to configure and
manage this product.
Firmware Upgradeable
You can upgrade the myGuard router with the latest firmware through its web-based GUI.
