Only use firmware for your EMG's specific model.

1.1.1 Internet Access

Your EMG has a Gigabit Ethernet port for super-fast Internet access. It provides Internet access by
connecting the WAN port to your ISP. Computers can connect to the EMG's LAN ports (or wirelessly) and
access the Internet simultaneously.
You can also configure IP filtering on the EMG for secure Internet access. When the IP filter is on, all
incoming traffic from the Internet to your network is blocked by default unless it is initiated from your
network. This means that probes from the outside to your network are not allowed, but you can safely
browse the Internet and download files.

1.1.2 Ethernet WAN

If you have another broadband modem or router available, you can connect the WAN port to the
broadband modem or router. This way, you can access the Internet via an Ethernet connection and still
use the QoS, Firewall and parental control functions on the EMG.
