  • Page 8: Introduction

    701, like broadband, is always on, removing the need to constantly boot a software server when access is desired from a client. No client software is required to connect to the DI-701 so it will support any operating system that can connect to a network whether PC or Apple based*.
  • Page 9 An ISP provided IP address can be set to the DI-701 and then specific services can be rerouted to specific computers on the local network. For instance, a dedicated web server can be connected to the Internet via the DI-701 and then incoming requests for HTML that are received by the DI-701 can be rerouted to the original server, even though the server now has a different IP address.

  • Page 15: Configuration Settings

    The following sections cover a number of possible configuration settings. The key thing is to apply the instructions below to your desired configuration. Start by configuring a computer to access the DI-701. This setup relies on the factory defaults set in the unit. Configuring Your Computer Start Windows 98.

    DI-701 with an address that can be accessed by the clients on your network. The IP address of the DI-701’ s local port will need to be set at each client as the client’ s gateway address. The DI-701 does not directly provide DNS information, so a separate DNS server address on the network (or on the internet) must be provided to each client.

    This would reroute any outside attempt to access a web page at the DI-701’ s IP address to the local client. For normal use, ports typically do not need to be opened. Standard services are already recognized and allowed to pass by the DI-701. See the troubleshooting section (“My Internet application won’...

  • Page 22: Changing Passwords

    CHANGING PASSWORDS The DI-701 contains 2 passwords, one for standard user access and one for Super Admin access. Your ISP may have set Super Admin access if you purchased your unit through them, and should not be changed in this case. For all other users it is recommended that you change the default passwords to ensure that someone cannot adjust your settings without your knowledge.
  • Page 23 (0-6 characters) and press <Enter> Password has been changed. Simply exit the Telnet program and reboot the DI-701 by unplugging and re-plugging in the power supply. You will need to restart all client machines or renew their IP addresses.

  • Page 24: Configuration In Terminal Program Mode Via Hyperterminal Or Telnet

    DI-701 rebooting will require you to open a new telnet session to reestablish a connection with the DI-701. Getting Started (Hyperterminal) Connect an RS-232 cable from one Serial COM port on your PC to your DI-701’ s Serial Console port. Go to Start àProgramàAccessoriesàCommunicationsàHyperTerminal.

  • Page 25: Getting Started (Telnet)

    Power up the DI-701. Wait 30-90 seconds for it to boot up. In Windows 98 start Telnet by clicking StartàRun, type “telnet 192.168.0.1 333” and press enter. If the local port of the DI-701 is set to something other than “192.168.0.1” (the factory default), then simply use that IP address instead.
