NETGEAR DG834Gv2 - 54 Mbps Wireless ADSL Firewall... User manual

DG834G
54 Mbps Wireless ADSL Firewall Router
with 4-port 10/100 Mbps switch
Wireless or Wired Instant Broadband Access with Internet Sharing
This 802.11g wireless router adds considerable power and flexibility to your network.
Five products in one, it combines an ADSL modem, router, 10/100 LAN switch, 802.11g
access point, and SPI Double Firewall. It gives you untethered continuous connectivity to your
network resources and the Internet, and allows you to share your broadband access with
all of your networked computers wireless or with wires using Ethernet cables. Featuring
high-speed 802.11g wireless capability – up to five times faster than 802.11b – it allows you
to download large files, videoconference, and distribute and play high-quality digital movies,
photos, and MP3s in the blink of an eye. Simple to use, it plugs directly into your ADSL line.
An integrated switch lets you directly connect four computers or any combination of four
computers, access points or printers. Setup couldn’t be easier – NETGEAR’s Smart Wizard
install assistant and on-screen help guide you through each step. The Smart Wizard
automatically detects and makes the best connection to your ISP. Double Firewall protects your
network with business-class security against intruders, including logs and alerts of break-in
attempts, while VPN pass-through makes it safe to connect to your business network from
home or office. The contemporary, sleek design of this unit suits your home or office. Future
upgrades to firmware can be obtained via the Internet.
The DG834G gives you instant connectivity with or without wires, and works with your existing
802.11b devices as well as your new 54 Mbps 802.11g devices. 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. This powerful router distributes MP3s, digital movies and photos with ultra-fast
10/100 switched LAN ports capable of speeds of 200 Mbps, and shares a single IP address with up
to 253 users. Upgradeable to ADSL 2+ for speeds up to 24 Mbps.
No need for a separate modem – this 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. User interface matches your local language (English, French, German or Italian).
It supports PCs, Macintosh®, and virtually all Ethernet devices, and comes with a free Ethernet
cable for connecting your first computer.
Double 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 fil-
tering lets you control access to inappropriate web sites and limit usage by time of day. Logs brows-
ing 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).
