Reference Manual for the ADSL Modem Wireless Router DG834G
3-6 Wireless Configuration
v1.0, October 2006
How to Set Up and Test Basic Wireless Connectivity
Follow the instructions below to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. Once you have
established basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings appropriate to your needs.
1. Log in to the DG834G v3 firewall at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its
default user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever LAN
address and password you have set up.
2. Click the Wireless Settings link in the main menu of the DG834G v3 firewall.
3. Choose a suitable descriptive name for the wireless network name (SSID). In the SSID box,
enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default SSID is Wireless.
WPA-PSK (Wi-
Fi Protected
Access Pre-
Shared Key)
WPA Pre-Shared-Key uses a pre-shared key to perform the authentication and
generate the initial data encryption keys. Then, it dynamically varies the encryption key.
For a full explanation of WPA, see “Wireless Communications” in Appendix C.
Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required
on the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 do include the client
software that supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware and driver
must also support WPA.
WPA-802.1x User authentication is implemented using 802.1x and RADIUS servers. For a full
explanation of WPA, see “Wireless Communications” in Appendix C.
Fill in the following:
Radius Server Name/IP Address
This field is required. Enter the name or IP address of the Radius Server on your LAN.
Radius Port
Enter the port number used for connections to the Radius Server.
Radius Shared Key
Enter the desired value for the Radius shared key. This key enables the DG834G v3
to log in to the Radius server and must match the value used on the Radius server.
Note: The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure
in the 54 Mbps ADSL Modem Wireless Router Model DG834G. If they do not
match, you will not get a wireless connection to the DG834G v3.
