IP Address Settings and Computer Settings In order to install the DI-804V you will need to check your computer’s settings and the values from your ISP.
Using the Configuration Utility Launch your web browser and type the device IP address (http:// 192.168.0.1) in the browser’s address box. This IP address is the default value of your gateway. Press Enter. Note: Please make sure that the computer’s IP Address is in the same IP Address range as the DI-804V. The IP Address of the DI-804V is 192.168.0.1. All computers on your network must be within that range, for instance, the computer IP Address could be 192.168.0.x.
Basic Setup Basic setup is a step-by-step process that will let you input all the basic settings. Click BASIC SETUP A username and password screen will appear. Leave the password box empty and type admin (the default username) in the username box. Click OK The Setup Wizard’s page will appear. Note: If you choose to input a password at any time, please remember it. If you should lose the password, you will need to reset the unit.
Time Settings Please choose your local time zone. Device IP Settings You have to give your VPN Gateway an IP address on your network. This is not the IP address from your ISP but the local internal LAN IP address. The IP address “192.168.0.1” is the default value of your gateway. Device IP Address: The internal LAN IP address of your VPN Gateway. Device IP Subnet Mask: The subnet mask can usually be left as its default entry “255.255.255.0”.
Cable/DSL ISP Settings To use the xDSL/Cable ISP settings, you must configure the router. ISP use either static or dynamic IP addresses. Check with your ISP if you are not certain which one it uses. If your ISP uses a static IP address, it means that the IP address of your router is always the same. Most ISPs use dynamic IP addresses. They assign you a new IP address every time you connect to the Internet. If you have a static IP address, do the following: Enter the IP address that your ISP provided.
ISP Additional Settings (PPPoE Settings) You can configure the router to use additional ISP settings. Some ISPs require PPPoE for authentication purposes. Do the following to set up PPPoE: User name: Enter the user name of your ISP account. Password: Enter the password of your ISP account. Retype password: Enter the password of your ISP account again to reconfirm.
Modem Settings The modem dialup can be used as a backup for the xDSL/Cable connection. If you would like to use the modem dialup or VPN features you must enable the modem settings. Click on the Advanced Settings tab and enter the ISP account information. Note: If you would like to change the baud rate settings, please click on the “ADVANCED SETTINGS”. Then click on the MODEM SETTINGS button.
VPN Settings Use this screen to enable the IPSec feature. This feature allows a secure connection between two parties. The connection is made over the Internet. To enable the VPN function, check the Enable VPN checkbox and enter a string into the connection name field, then click the “ADD” button. Enabled NetBIOS Broadcast Computers running Microsoft Windows can communicate with one another using NetBIOS. Users can access remote network resources by browsing the Window Network Neighborhood.

Static Routing Static routing settings allow the VPN Internet Gateway to route IP packets to another network. The routing table stores the routing information so that your network device knows where to redirect the IP packets to the proper network. Destination IP Address The destination IP is the address of the remote network to which you want to assign a static route. Subnet Mask The subnet mask of your network IP address.
For the SEND option choosing the proper protocol by which you transmit the data on the network. For the RECEIVE option choosing the proper protocol by which the VPN Internet Gateway receive the data on the network. Filter Settings – LAN Filter Settings LAN Filter Settings allow administrator to define whether local user has the permission to access Internet. To activate this feature, check LAN Side Filter Enabled.
Filter Settings – WAN Filter Settings WAN Filter Settings allow administrator to define whether remote/outside user has the permission to access the local network. To activate this feature, check WAN Side Filter Enabled. Then, you can define the filtering policy by entering IP address range, the port range and select the protocol(s). For example, to prevent the remote user of IP address range (211.21.0.1 to 211.29.0.
Modem String Settings Modem string settings allow user to input detail settings for the analog modem. If you would like to change the baud rate settings, please check the initial string.

Assigning a Static IP Address Note: Residential Gateways/Broadband Routers will automatically assign IP Addresses to the computers on the network, using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) technology. If you are using a DHCP-capable Gateway/Router you will not need to assign Static IP Addresses.
Right-click on Local Area Connections.
Select Use the following IP address in the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties window. Input your IP address and subnet mask. (The IP Addresses on your network must be within the same range. For example, if one computer has an IP Address of 192.168.0.2, the other computers should have IP Addresses that are sequential, like 192.168.0.3 and 192.168.0.4. The subnet mask must be the same for all the computers on the network.) Input your DNS server addresses.
