NETGEAR DG834 - ADSL Firewall Router User manual

DG834
ADSL Firewall Router
All-in-one Gateway for Always-on Broadband Access with
Internet Sharing
Four products in one, this multitalented firewall router combines an ADSL modem, router,
four-port 10/100 LAN switch, and SPI True Firewall to deliver broadband access that’s
continuously available for sharing with all your networked devices. Simple to use, it plugs
directly into your ADSL line for instant connectivity to network resources and the Internet,
and an integrated switch lets you directly connect up to four computers or any combination of
four computers, access points or printers. Setup couldn’t be easier with NETGEAR’s unique
Smart Wizard install assistant helps to guide you each step of the way. The Smart Wizard also
automatically detects and makes the optimal connection to your ISP while the True Firewall
protects your network with business-class security against intruders, including logs and alerts
of break-in attempts. VPN pass-through makes it safe to connect to your business network
from home or office. The unit’s contemporary, sleek design suits your home or office, and
it’s wall mountable to save valuable desk space. Upgradeable with new enhancements via
the Internet.
One router supplies your network with impressive capabilities. A built-in ADSL modem furnishes
direct, always-on Internet connectivity and multi-user access sharing at speeds up to 140 times faster
than dial-up. The router distributes MP3s, digital movies and photos with ultra-fast 10/100
switched LAN ports capable of speeds of 200 Mbps and and shares a single IP address with all the
networked devices in your home. Boasts double the memory and a 50% faster CPU than many
popular routers.
No need for a separate modem – it connects directly into your ADSL line. Built-in Port
Forwarding settings, Universal Plug and Play (UPnP™) and Virtual Private Network (VPN) pass-
through make it simple to play Internet games, send instant messages, and host Internet services.
The user interface matches your local language (English, French, German or Italian). Works with
PCs, Macintosh®, and virtually all Ethernet devices, and comes with a free Ethernet cable for
connecting your first computer.
True Firewall using Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) and Intrusion Control features Denial of Service
protection from hacker attacks, while VPN (Virtual Private Network) pass-through permits secure
access to your office or corporate network and enables you to host VPN services. Content filtering
lets you control access to inappropriate web sites and limit usage by time of day. Logs browsing
activities and provides optional e-mail alerts so you can monitor access. DMZ support allows
unrestricted access from the Internet to one computer (for hosting web services).
