Chapter 2 - Hardware Installation

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.
