Introduction
This chapter describes the features of the NETGEAR DG834G Wireless ADSL Firewall Router.
The DG834G wireless router is a combination of a built-in ADSL modem, router, 4-port switch,
and firewall which enables your entire network to safely share an Internet connection that
otherwise is used by a single computer.
About the Router
The DG834G Wireless ADSL Firewall Router provides continuous, high-speed 10/100 Ethernet
access between your Ethernet devices. The DG834G wireless router enables your entire network
to share an Internet connection through the built-in ADSL modem that otherwise is used by a
single computer. With minimum setup, you can install and use the router within minutes.
The DG834G wireless router provides multiple Web content filtering options, plus e-mail
browsing activity, reporting, and instant alerts. Parents and network administrators can establish
restricted access policies based on time of day, Web site addresses, and address keywords. They
can also share high-speed ADSL Internet access for up to 253 personal computers. The included
firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) features protect you from hackers.
Key Features
The DG834G wireless router provides the following features:
•
A built-in ADSL modem
•
A powerful, true firewall
•
802.11g standards-based wireless networking
Note:
If you are unfamiliar with networking and routing, refer to

A Powerful, True Firewall
Unlike simple Internet sharing NAT routers, the DG834G is a true firewall, using stateful packet
inspection to defend against hacker attacks. Its firewall features include:
•
Denial of Service (DoS) protection
Automatically detects and thwarts Denial of Service (DoS) attacks such as Ping of Death,
SYN Flood, LAND Attack and IP Spoofing.
•
Blocks unwanted traffic from the Internet to your LAN.
•
Blocks access from your LAN to Internet locations or services that you specify as off-limits.
•
Logs security incidents
The DG834G will log security events such as blocked incoming traffic, port scans, attacks,
and administrator logins. You can configure the router to email the log to you at specified
intervals. You can also configure the router to send immediate alert messages to your email
address or email pager whenever a significant event occurs.
802.11 Standards-based Wireless Networking
The DG834G wireless router includes an 802.11g-compliant wireless access point, providing
continuous, high-speed 10/100 Mbps access between your wireless and Ethernet devices. The
access point provides:
•
802.11g Standards-based wireless networking at up to 54 Mbps
•
Works with both 802.11g and 802.11b wireless devices
•
64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption security
•
WEP keys can be entered manually or generated by passphrase
