Chapter 3

Connecting the Router to the Internet

This chapter describes how to set up the router on your Local Area Network (LAN) and connect to

the Internet. It describes how to configure your DG834 ADSL Firewall Router for Internet access

using the Setup Wizard, or how to manually configure your Internet connection.

What You Need Before You Begin

You need to prepare the following before you can establish an Internet connection through your

router:

1. The router connected to an ADSL line and a computer properly connected to the router as

explained below.

2. Active Internet service such as that provided by an ADSL account.

3. The Internet Service Provider (ISP) configuration information for your DSL account.

Note: If you purchased the DG834 in a country where a microfilter is not included, you must

acquire one.

ADSL Microfilter Requirements

ADSL technology uses the same wires as your telephone service. However, ADSL adds signals to

the telephone lines which create noise in the telephone service. You must use ADSL microfilters to

filter out these signals before they reach your telephone.
