Line Reference Manual for the Model Wireless ADSL Firewall Router DG834G Each device such as a telephone, fax machine, answering machine, or caller ID display will require an ADSL microfilter. Note: Do not connect the DG834G to the ADSL line through a microfilter unless the microfilter is a combination microfilter/splitter specifically designed for this purpose. Doing so will prevent the built-in ADSL modem in the DG834G from establishing a connection to the Internet. If you have any doubts about this, connect the DG834G directly to the ADSL line.

Ethernet Cabling Requirements The DG834G wireless router connects to your Ethernet LAN via twisted-pair cables. If the computer will connect to your network at 100 Mbps, you must use a Category 5 (CAT5) cable such as the one provided with your router. Computer Hardware Requirements To use the DG834G wireless router on your network, each computer must have an installed Ethernet adapter and an Ethernet cable, or a 802.11g wireless adapter. LAN Configuration Requirements For the initial connection to the Internet and configuration of your router, you need to connect a computer to the router which is set to automatically get its TCP/IP configuration from the router via DHCP. Note: Please refer to Appendix C, "Preparing Your Network" for assistance with DHCP configuration. 3-2 Connecting the Router to the Internet 202-10006-05, June 2005
