Introduction
Thank you for purchasing DI-704P 4-Port Ethernet Broadband Router. The DI-
704P is an Ethernet Broadband Router with a built-in 4-port switch. It also fea-
tures a parallel port to share a printer on the home or office network and in-
cludes a print server application for Windows1.As many as four computers can
beconnected directlyto therouter’sintegratedswitch,using itsfour10/100Mbps
AutoMDIXEthernetports. Morecomputerscan be addedtothe network bycon-
nectingadditionalswitches to the DI-704P.TheDI-704Ppackage even includes

Features & Benefits
!Firewall Features
!Filtering - Easily applied filtering based on MediaAccess
Control (MAC) Addresses, IP Addresses, PortAddresses, and
time schedule allows or denies computer on the network
access to the Internet.
!Built-In 4-Port Switch -Allows you to quickly and easily share an
Internet connection with multiple computers and devices. Each 10/
100 Ethernet Port automatically senses and accepts the type of
Category (CAT) 5 cable you attach - whether straight through or
cross-over. Connect additional switches to allow more computer
to access the Internet.
!Built-In Print Server - Includes a parallel port to connect to a
centronic printer and includes a Windows-based print server software
application, so users on the network can share the printer1. The print
server is also capable of TCP/IP printing.
Ethernet Cable Included - One Ethernet cable is included with the
DI-704P to get you started.

Introduction to Broadband
Router Technology
A router is a device that forwards data packets from a source to a destination.
Routers can work on Open System Interconnection (OSI) layer 3, which for-
wards data packets using an IP address and not a MAC address. A router will
forward data from the Internet to a particular computer on your LAN.
The information that makes up the Internet gets moved around using routers.
When you click on a link on a wed page, you send a request to a server to show
you the next page. The information that is sent and received from your com-
puter is moved from your computer to the server using routers. A router also
determines the best route that your information should follow to ensure that the
information is delivered properly.
A router controls the amount of data that is sent through your network by elimi-
nating information that shouldn’t be there. This provides security for the com-
puters behind your router because computers from the outside cannot access
or send information directly to any computer on your network. The router deter-
mines which computer the information should be forwarded to and sends it. If
the information is not intended for any computer on your network, the data is
discarded. This keeps any unwanted or harmful information from accessing or
damaging your network.
Introduction to Firewalls
A firewall is a device that sits between your computer and the Internet that pre-
vents unauthorized access to or from your network. A firewall can be a com-
puter using firewall software or a special piece of hardware built specifically to
act as a firewall. In most circumstances, a firewall is used to prevent unautho-
rized Internet users from accessing private networks suchs as corporate LANs
andIntranets.
A firewall watches all of the information moving to and from your network and
analyzes each piece of data. Each piece of data is checked against a set of
criteria that the administrator configures. If any data does not meet the criteria,
that data is blocked and discarded. If the data meets the criteria, the data is
paased through.. This method is called packet filtering.
A firewall can also run specific security functions based on the type of applica-
tion or type of port that is being used. For example, a firewall can be configured
to work with an FTP or Telnet server. Or a firewall can be configured to work
with specific UDP or TCP ports to allow certain applications or games to work
properlyoverthe Internet.

Introduction to Local Area Networking
Local Area Networking (LAN) is the term used when connecting several com-
puterstogetherover asmallarea such asabuilding or groupofbuildings. LAN’s
canbeconnected over large areas.AcollectionofLANs connected over a large
area is called a WideArea Network (WAN).
A LAN is consists of multiple computers connected to each other. There are
many types of media that can connect computers together. The most common
media is CAT5 cable; UTP or STP twisted pair wire. Each computer must have
a Network Interface Card (NIC), which communicates the data between com-
puters.ANIC is usually a 10Mbps network card or 10/100Mbps network cards.
Most networks use hardware devices such as hubs or switches that each cable
can be connected to in order to continue the connection between computers.A
hub simply takes any data arriving through each port and forwards the data to
all other ports. A switch is more sophisticated, in that a switch can determine
the port that each piece of data is supposed to be delivered to. A switch mini-
mizes network traffic and speeds up the communication over a network.
Networks take some time in order to plan and implement correctly. There are
many types of scenarios to consider which could affect the operability of a net-
work. Some of these issues are discussed in the manual under the
Networking Basics section.

Sample Scenario
You will need broadband Internet access (a Cable or DSLsubscription line into
yourhome or office)
Consultwithyour Cable or DSL provider for properinstallationofthemodem
ConnecttheCable or DSL modem to theDI-704Pwirelessbroadbandrouter
(see the Quick Installation Guide included with the DI-704P.)
If you are connecting a desktop computer to your network, you can install the
D-Link DFE-530TX+ Ethernetadapter into an available PCI slot. (See the
QuickInstallation Guide included withtheDWL-530TX+.)
Ifyou are connecting a laptop computer toyournetwork,install the drivers for
theEthernetCardbusadapter(e.g., D-Link DFE-690TXD)intoalaptop
computer.(SeetheQuickInstallation Guide included withtheDFE-690TXD.)
**Easily upgrade toawirelessnetworkby adding awirelessAccessPoint(D-Link DWL-900AP+) **
Connect your printer to the printer port on the DI-704P. Please refer to the
quickinstallationguidefor loading the print server software.
A typical network setup at home (as shown above) might contain the following de-
vices. For specific information on setting up your network with the DI-704P please see
