Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a D-Link DI-304 remote access router with
integrated Ethernet switch and ISDN TA. No larger than an ordinary modem, your
router offers inexpensive yet complete telecommunications and internetworking
solutions for your home or branch office. It is ideal for applications such as
Internet/intranet access, Wide Area Networking, Electronic Commerce, and Remote
Network Access.
This complete solution also includes remote dial-in user support, an Internet single-
user account (Network Address Translation) option, extensive network management
capabilities, and solid security features.
The DI-304 provides multiple users with efficient and reliable access over a single
ISDN BRI, DSL line, or Cable Modem (Dynamic IP is not supported) service to the
Internet and corporate LAN for using E-mail, sharing documents, Web surfing, file
transfers, etc. Moreover, the provision of a built-in four-port Fast Ethernet Switch
and one Uplink port may give cost-effective workgroup connectivity over Ethernet.
In addition to improving the productivity of employee, flexible telecommuting
access, and affordable management cost, the DI-304 accommodates room
for business growth from 4 computers or more.
The broadband access protocol supports PPPoE, PPTP, and Static IP. These
protocols comply with worldwide Ethernet-based DSL/Cable Modem standards.
The Router provides seamless migration from ISDN to a broadband connection for
multiple SOHO users and easy usage of ISDN for backup-dial and/or remote access
while concurrently using the DSL/Cable modem connection.
PPPoE/PPTP allows users on the LAN interface to setup a dial-on-demand DSL
connection sharing the same IP account, and paying for only one connection. The
idle-time out function prevents wasted connection charges by shutting down the
connection when it is idle. No PPPoE/PPTP client software is required for the
computers.
