Procedure for Hardware Installation
1.Placement
Your Broadband Router should be placed in a safe and secure location.
To ensure proper operation, please keep the unit away from water and other
damaging elements. Your Broadband Router can be mounted on a wall or a
shelf using the screw-holes located on the bottom of the unit. Self-adhesive
rubber feet are provided to stick on the bottom of the unit to protect the
surface where you have placed the unit.
2.Setup LAN connection
a. Wired LAN connection: connect an Ethernet cable from your
computer’s Ethernet port to one of the LAN ports of the DI-713.
b. Wireless LAN connection: make sure the antennas are in a vertical
position (if not, rotate over 90 degrees).
3.Setup WAN connection
Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting the DI-713 to your
cable/xDSL modem or Ethernet backbone. Figure 2-1 illustrates the WAN
connection.
