This Chapter provides an overview of the DRG700 features and capabilities.
Congratulations on the purchase of your new DRG700 router. The DRG700- is a multi-function digital
residential gateway device that provides the following services:
•Multiport GigabitEthernet Switch for 100BaseT or 1000BaseT connections.
•Voice over IP Ports for IP telephones
•Wireless Access Point for 802.11b/g/n wireless devices
•TV Out
coaxial connector

DRG600 WiFi Features
The DRG700 incorporates many advanced features, carefully designed to provide sophisticated functions while
being easy to use.
Internet Access Features
•Shared Internet Access. All users on the LAN or WLAN can access the Internet through the DRG700, using
only a single external IP Address. The local IP addresses are hidden from external sources. This process is called
NAT (Network Address Translation)
•Fixed or Dynamic IP Address. On the Internet connection, the DRG700 supports both Dynamic IP Address (IP
Address is allocated on connection) and Fixed IP Address.
•PPPoE support. Connecting to the Internet using Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is also
supported.

DRG700 User Guide Introduction

Wireless Features
•Standards Compliant. The DRG700 complies with the IEEE802.11 b/g/n specifications for Wireless LANs.
•Supports both 802.11b and 802. 11g Wireless Stations. The 802.11 standard is backwards compatible with earlier
versions, so both 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n wireless clients can be used simultaneously.
•Speeds up to 300Mbps . All connection speeds up to the 802.11n maximum of 300 Mbps are supported.
•WEP support. Support for WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is included. Key sizes of 64 Bit and 128 Bit are
supported.
•WPA support. Support for WPA is included. WPA is more secure than WEP, and should be used if possible.
•WPA2 support. Support for WPA2 is also included. By default, WPA2 uses the extremely secure AES
encryption method.
•Wireless MAC Access Control. The Wireless Access Control feature can check the MAC address (hardware
address) of Wireless stations to ensure that only trusted Wireless Stations can access your LAN.
•Simple Configuration. If the default settings are unsuitable, they can be changed quickly and easily.
LAN Features
•4 Port GigabitEthernet switch . The DRG700 incorporates a 4 port 100/1000BaseT gigabitethernet switch,
making it easy to create and extend your LAN.
•DHCP Server Support. Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol provides a dynamic IP address to PCs and other
devices upon request. The DRG700 can act as a DHCP Server for devices on your local LAN and WLAN.
Configuration & Management
•Easy Setup. Use your web browser from anywhere on the LAN or WLAN to configure the DRG700
connection (if permitted by service provider).
•Network Diagnostics. You can use the DRG700 to perform a Ping, traceroute troubleshooting operation.
Security Features
•Password - protected Configuration. Optional password protection is provided to prevent unauthorized users
from modifying the configuration data and settings.
•Wireless LAN Security. WEP, WPA and WPA2 data encryption protocols are supported, as well as wireless
access control, to prevent unknown wireless stations from accessing your LAN.
•NAT Protection. An intrinsic side effect of NAT (Network Address Translation) technology is that by
allowing all LAN users to share a single IP address, the location and even the existence of each PC is hidden.
From the external viewpoint, there is no network, only a single device - the DRG700.
•Stateful Inspection Firewall. All incoming data packets are monitored and all incoming server requests are
filtered, thus protecting your network from malicious attacks from external sources.
•Protection against DoS attacks. DoS (Denial of Service) attacks can flood your Internet connection with
invalid packets and connection requests, using so much bandwidth and so many resources that Internet access
becomes unavailable. The DRG700 incorporates protection against DoS attacks.

Installation
This chapter describes the physical installation of the DRG700.
Requirements
•DRG700 Base, preferably with an active Internet subscription.
•For DRG700 without WIFI, a network cable. Use standard 10/100/1000 BaseT network (Cat5) cables with
RJ45 connector.
•For DRG700 with WIFI, a wireless device compliant with IEEE802.11b/g/n.
Installing the DRG700
To install the DRG700, do the following:
1. Locate the DRG700Base access point for your broadband network for the DRG700 pre-installed in your
home.
2. Remove the dust covers on the FTU.
3. Remove the dust covers on the DRG700.
4. Slide the DRG700 upwards until the optical connectors connect and press downwards gently so the DRG700
sits firmly on the FTU.
5. Connect the PSU to the PWR socket on the bottom panel of the DRG700. The PWR LED on the top panel
will blink first GREEN, then RED, while the DRG is booting.
When the DRG has booted successfully, the PWR LED will be display a constant GREEN color. If an error
occurs, it will be indicate a constant RED color.
