INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of the D-Link DI-701 Residential Gateway. Its main features include:
* Acts as a Firewall
* Protects your Computers from Intruders
* Share your Cable/DSL Modem
* Works with any Ethernet Connection
* Supports up to 32 Computers
The DI-701 functions as an IEEE 802.3 Ethernet-based Residential Gateway. It provides one 10/100 Dual Speed Ethernet port for connection to a home or small office network and one 10Mb Ethernet port for a DSL Modem, Cable Modem, or other Broadband access device.
The D-Link DI-701 provides the safety and security of both port blocking and a natural firewall as well as integrated NAT support that allows up to 32 users to share a single Internet Connection. Static address support, integrated client/server DHCP, and device name support will allow the D-Link Residential Gateway to connect to nearly any Broadband provider, and at the same time simplify local area network settings.
The DI-701 has one local 10/100 Dual Speed Ethernet port and one 10Mb Ethernet global port. The local port can be connected directly to a single computer to provide added security from hackers and others on the Internet or it can be connected to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet hub or switch to provide Internet Sharing and Firewall protection to a local area network. The global port can be connected to any Cable, DSL, or Broadband modem with an Ethernet port.
The DI-701 provides two levels of security support. First, it masks local users' IP addresses from others on the Internet making it much more difficult for a hacker to target a machine on your network. Secondly it can block and redirect certain ports to limit the services that outside users can access. The user, to ensure that games and other Internet applications will run properly, can open specific ports.
Unlike proxy server or NAT software that requires the software server to remain visible on the Internet, no local computers are directly externally visible when using the DI-701. Also the DI-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*.
Integrated DHCP services allow up to 128 users to get their IP address automatically on boot up from the DI-701. Client machines require no software, simply set them to accept a dynamically assigned IP address and reboot. Each time they are powered up the DI-701 will recognize them and set their IP address to instantly connect them to the LAN.
For advanced users Virtual Service support allows the DI-701 to provide limited visibility to local machines and their services as dictated by the user. 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. In this example, the DI-701 is on the Internet and vulnerable to attacks, but the server is protected.
Virtual Service can also be used to re-task services to multiple servers. For instance, the DI-701 can be set to allow separate FTP, Web, and Multiplayer game servers to share the same Internet-visible IP address while still protecting the servers and local users from hackers.
* The DI-701's GUI setup interface requires Windows 95, 98, NT or 2000. Telnet and Terminal setup are operating system independent.

CONFIGURATION SETTINGS
Before Getting Started
The DI-701 can be configured through the setup program provided, through a terminal emulation program, such as Windows HyperTerminal, or through Telnet. The DI-701 can be set with a range of options to allow it to function in most any network environment.
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
1. Start Windows 98.
2. Go to the Start menu. Point to Settings. Click Control Panel.
3. Double-click Network.
4. Select the binding of TCP/IP and your Ethernet adapter. Click the Property button.
5. Check "Obtain IP address automatically". Click OK.
Figure 3: TCP/IP Properties
6. Windows will then prompt you to restart your computer, do so.
Configuring in GUI Mode
This section describes how to configure the DI-701 using the DI-701 Setup Software.
Getting Started (GUI)
1. Insert the included setup CD into your CD-ROM drive.
2. The CD will auto run, click on the "Install DI-701 Setup Software" icon.
3. Once the Setup Software has been installed, go to Start-->Programs-->D-Link DI-701.
4. When the following dialog box appears, click Find.
Figure 4: DI-701 Setup Program
5. The setup program finds the DI-701. It will only find the DI-701 if (1) it is powered up and (2) the Gateway for your computer is set to the IP address of the DI-701, and (3) the DI-701 has completed its boot up process (30-60 seconds). Anytime changes are made to the DI-701 and "Save" is pressed it will reboot, you must either reboot your client or renew its IP address before finding the DI-701 if the DI-701 is set to pass out IP addresses to its client computers.
6. Once the DI-701 is found, press "Configure". The password dialog box may prompt you to enter a password. The factory default is an empty password. Just leave the password space blank. If you change the password please write it down somewhere safe.
7. See the following sections for descriptions of the various settings.
Global Port Settings
The Global Port settings are used to configure the port connected to your Cable/DSL modem. These should mirror the settings provided by your ISP.
If your ISP provides a static IP address for your Internet connection, then select the "Set static global port configuration" radio button. You will need to fill in each field with appropriate information as provided by your ISP.
If your ISP provides a dynamic address, then select the "Obtain global port configuration automatically" radio button. Please note that some ISPs require that a computer name be set in Windows, if this is the case with your ISP then click the management tab and enter the Computer name in the "Device/Computer name" field (see below, "Management").
Figure 5: Global Port
Modifying Local Port Settings
Select the "Local Port" Tab. The IP address and Subnet Mask fields apply to the local port of the DI-701. Please note that three first numbers of this address much match the first three numbers of your local clients' IP addresses. Under normal use it is recommended you use the factory default settings which are 192.168.0.1 and 255.255.255.0 respectively.
The "Distribute IP Addresses to Local Computers" radio button should be checked. This will allow the DI-701 to pass out IP addresses to your local clients. Again it is recommended you use the factory defaults settings for the "Continuous IP address pool starts at". This field allows you to set the initial IP address that your clients will receive. For example, the first client to access the DI-701 will receive 192.168.0.2 for its address.
"Number of IP addresses in pool" allows you to set the maximum number of clients you wish to use the DI-701 as a DHCP server. This should be set to either the number of clients you have or higher.
Figure 6: Local Port
ADVANCED NOTE ON LOCAL SETTINGS: If you are using the DI-701 on an existing LAN that already has a DHCP server, you may wish to disable the DHCP services in the DI-701 by selecting "Do not distribute IP addresses to local computers". In this case, you will need to configure the 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 effectively allow a user to set up the DI-701 as a gateway. Any local traffic that is bound for the Internet would be transmitted over the broadband connection.
A simple example would be a network with a Windows NT server that acts as both a DHCP and Network server. For this example if the NT server has a local address of 192.168.0.1 and passes out IP addresses in the range of 192.168.0.3 to 192.168.0.54, the DI-701 could be set with a static address of 192.168.0.55 on its local port. The DI-701's global port could be connected to a DSL/Cable Modem and configured for the specific ISP. The NT server would have to pass 192.168.0.55 to each client as the gateway address. A DNS server address would have to be provided as well (perhaps a DNS server on the local network at 192.168.0.2). Is this example the gateway services would be offloaded to the DI-701.
Management
Select the Management tab to change the administrator password as shown in Figure 7.
If your ISP requires that a Computer name be used to gain access to the Internet, enter the Computer name provided into the "Device/Computer Name" field.
Figure 7: Management
To change the password for the unit (highly recommended for security reasons) simply check the "Change Password Box" and enter the new password into each of the two boxes. Press "Save" when you are done.
Virtual Server
Select the Virtual Server tab to set the Virtual Server settings, see figure 8. Virtual Server will allow you to open blocked ports in the DI-701 and reroute incoming traffic to specific machines on your internal network.
Certain applications use ports that can be seen as a security threat. The Virtual Server menu allows you to open these ports manually to allow a client computer to still access services that would otherwise be blocked. Additionally this reroutes port calls from the Internet to a specified client. This would allow individual FTP, Web, and other servers to be accessed from the Internet using the IP address of the DI-701. At the same time, other ports would be blocked protecting the servers from various attacks.
The setup is very simple, enter the port number and IP address in the provided fields and press Add and then Save. If you are not sure of the local client's IP address, use the browse button to choose the computer by name. The DI-701 will reboot, you must reboot all client machines (or renew their IP addresses). In figure 8 the example shown is opens port 80 for one of the local machines. 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't work") for additional information on opening ports.
Figure 8: Virtual Server
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.
Changing the default passwords is a simple task just follow these steps:
1) Go to Start-->Run
2) When the Run box appears, type "telnet 192.168.0.1 333" (if your Local port IP address was changed during the initial configuration, substitute the IP address you set for "192.168.0.1") and press enter:
3) You should see the following prompts, do as instructed in italics. Please note that passwords are case sensitive, so be sure that you remember whether a letter is upper or lower case and make sure that your Caps Lock is off:
D-Link DI-701, version 2.10

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.
CONFIGURATION IN TERMINAL PROGRAM MODE VIA HYPERTERMINAL OR TELNET
You can use terminal emulation on your PC/workstation for the initial and future configuration of your DI-701. Windows HyperTerminal or other terminal emulation applications can be used. The following example was done with HyperTerminal.
If you prefer, a telnet session can be opened directly. Telnet provides the same type of terminal emulation. For security purposes, the DI-701 uses port 333 for telnet. All of the following configuration menus are identical in a telnet session, with the exception that any saved changes that result in the DI-701 rebooting will require you to open a new telnet session to reestablish a connection with the DI-701.
Getting Started (Hyperterminal)
1. Connect an RS-232 cable from one Serial COM port on your PC to your DI-701's Serial Console port.
2. Go to Start -->Program-->Accessories-->Communications-->HyperTerminal.
3. When the Hyper Terminal window appears, double-click Hypertrm.
4. Name the new connection appropriately.
5. In the Connect To dialog box, select the COM port that connects to your DI-701.
Figure 9: Connect To:
6. When the dialog box shown in Figure 10 appears, set the Bits per second rate at 38400, and Flow control at None. Click OK to complete the setting. See Figure 10.
Figure 10: COM 1 Properties
7. Power up the DI-701.
Getting Started (Telnet)
1. Power up the DI-701. Wait 30-90 seconds for it to boot up.
2. In Windows 98 start Telnet by clicking Start-->Run, 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.

CONFIGURATION
This chapter deals with configuring the DI-701 for special situations. The following points are covered:
* Configuring the DI-701 for use with PPPoE.
* Configuring the DI-701 for remote access to a Web, VPN or other server.
* Configuring the DI-701 for HomePNA.
If this information does not apply to you, continue to the Troubleshooting section. It is not necessary to perform the following configurations unless you are using some of the protocols and features listed above.
PPPoE
PPPoE stands for Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet. It is a non-standard method of connecting to your ISP to gain an IP address. It relies upon a software client that is provided by the ISP. An IP address is required to gain a connection to the Internet. D-Link has released Beta firmware that supports PPPoE. The new firmware is available on D-Link's web site.
PPPoE is not a Standard
No. PPPoE is a proprietary method of creating a virtual connection between an ISP's network and a client machine. Currently it has not been endorsed or accepted by any relevant Internet standards bodies. The new revision of the DI-701's firmware enables it to support PPPoE. The new firmware is now available for download.
Why Does My Provider Use PPPoE?
PPPoE emulates a Dial-Up connection. It allows your ISP to use their existing network configuration with newer broadband technologies. The new firmware available for download, supports PPPoE.
How Can I Tell if I am Using PPPoE?
PPPoE requires a client on your computer. If you have a broadband connection and have to login to your provider in a similar fashion to how you would dial in with a modem, you are probably using PPPoE. If you are simply connected to the Internet when you turn on your computer, you probably are not. The safest way to check is to call your provider, or read the documentation provided with your Internet service to determine if you currently use PPPoE.
Configuring the DI-701 to Dial through PPPoE
Step 1
Click on Start>Programs>D-Link DI-701.
Step 2
Click on Find.
Step 3
Configure.
Step 4
Input your computer name at the Device/Computer box. Check the PPPoE Enabled box. Enter ELN\ and then your username provided by your ISP at the Username box. ELN\ must all be in capital letters entered before our username. Enter the password provided by the ISP and click Save.
Step 5
Click Exit.
If the DI-701 is not responding properly:
1. Verify that your username and password are entered correctly.
2. Call your ISP if you are not sure you are using the correct username and password.
3. Verify that your cable connections are properly installed and plugged into your PC as well as your DI-701.

Cabling
The most common problem associated with Ethernet is bad cabling. Make sure that all conected devices are turned on. On the top of the of the DI-701 is a bank of LEDs, as a first check verify that the Local Link and Internet Link LEDs are lit and green. If they are not, verify that you are using the proper cables.
The DI-701's ports are wired just like a Network Adapter's port. From the DI-701 directly to a PC, the cable should be an Ethernet crossover cable. From the DI-701 to a hub or switch, the cable should be an Ethernet straight through cable to a normal hub/switch port, or an Ethernet crossover cable to an uplink port. For the DI-701 to a cable/DSL modem, it is most common to use a crossover, and it is recommended that you use the same cable as supplied by your modem maker.
PPPoE (PPP over Ethernet)
Some ISP's use PPPoE to provide an IP address for each client. For a direct connection that requires the IP address through a PPPoE login, the DI-701 is unable to receive an IP address and can therefore not work. What this means is simple, if you use a PPPoE connection to connect to your ISP directly though your Cable/DSL modem, the DI-701 is unable to be set with the PPPoE login and will therefore not work. In a PPPoE environment your provider should be able to set up multiple logins if you have multiple computers and wish to share the connection. Hardware based Firewall protection is something you will simply have to do without.
"I can't Find the DI-701 using the DI-701 Setup Software"
For the DI-701 Setup Software to find the DI-701, it has to be accessed from a client. This means that the computer you are trying to use to run the software must be setup as in Step 6. Additionally the computer should have been restarted to ensure that it is receiving its IP address from the DI-701.
To verify that your computer is setup properly, use the "winipcfg" utility in Windows. To run this go to Start-->Run... and type "winipcfg" in the Run box. Press the "More Info" button on the bottom right and make sure your network adapter that is attached to the DI-701 is selected in the Ethernet Adapter Information box.
Look at the box labeled DHCP Server, this should be the DI-701's IP address (192.168.0.1 as default). If it is not, or it is blank or reads 255.255.255.255 then you may have a cabling problem (see above), or you may have another DHCP server on your network. In either case, please follow the installation guide again, and ONLY connect the client, DI-701 and your modem. If you are on a network, it is recommended that you contact your IS manager for further assistance with DHCP settings. Placing a DI-701 configured to pass out IP addresses on a LAN with an existing DHCP server may cause problems throughout a network as the DI-701 issues new IP addresses to computers that log on to the network. It is recommended you disable other DHCP serves on the network if you plan to use the DI-701.
"My Internet application won't work"
To protect your computer from Hackers, the DI-701 uses port blocking. A port is like a door into your computer. Each service on the Internet has an associated port. The DI-701 protects your computer by closing certain ports off so that malicious programs can't access your computer. Sometimes, however, you are using an application on purpose that uses one of these blocked ports. In this case you will have to manually open the port to allow the application to work properly.
Some applications that may be affected:
Some Email Programs
Some Multi-Player Games
Some Internet Phone/Video Conferencing Applications
The first thing you will need to do is determine what port or ports the application uses. Typically the fastest way to find this information is to go to the software maker's web site. Go to their support section and look for information related to NAT, Proxy Server, or Firewall. This information will typically list 1 to 3 ports that need to be opened for proper operation of the software. If you can't find the necessary information, call the software maker and ask what ports need to be opened for the software to work through a firewall.
Once you have the necessary port information, it is a simple matter to actually open the ports on the DI-701.
A. Launch the DI-701 Setup Software and press "Find". Once the DI-701 Setup Software finds the DI-701, press "Configure":
B. Choose the "Virtual Server" tab:
C. Enter one of the port numbers that your application requires and then press the "Browse" button:
D. Choose the computer that is using the application and press "Select":
E. Press Add. Repeat this process for each individual port you need to open.
F. Press Save. Your application should now work. It may be necessary to restart your application or your computer for the application to recognize the change.
TCP/IP Network Diagnosis
Execute WINIPCFG.EXE or PING.EXE for TCP/IP network diagnosis.
WINIPCFG
The WINIPCFG program is used to gather information about the TCP/IP connections that are active on your system. It cannot be used to dynamically adjust TCP/IP connections. You can also renew leases (if allowed by the network), and get the current IP address assignments through this program.
Go to Start. Click Run. Enter WINIPCFG. See Figure 12.
Figure 12: Run
Figure 13 displays the adapter address and current TCP/IP address.
Figure 13: IP Configuration
Click the More Info button, displayed in Figure 14, to get detailed configuration information.
Figure 14: IP Configuration
Figure 14 displays the advanced settings of your TCP/IP connection.
The computer name and DNS server the computer is configured to call when it is looking for a named resource are on top. The default gateway is the server to which the client connects to the Internet. The DHCP Server identifies the network server that assigns IP addresses to computers logging onto the network.
If the DI-701 is properly set up and working the following should be apparent from this screen:
1) The Client should have an address in the range set in the DI-701 for local clients
2) The DHCP and Default Gateway should list the DI-701's local port address
3) The DNS servers should match the DI-701's set servers
PING.EXE
Ping is used to verify that a computer is active and available. Users can specify the destination domain name or just the IP address.
Example:
For example, to find the server 168.95.192.1, type the following command at the MS-DOS prompt:
C:\>ping 168.95.192.1.
PING can be executed in Windows as shown below:
1. Go to the Start menu.
2. Click Run.
3. Type ping 168.95.192.1. Click OK.
4. The server is online if the following message appears.
Reply from 192.168.0.1: bytes=32 time=3ms TTL=100
5. The destination device is not reachable if the following message appears.
Reply from 192.168.0.1: Destination host unreachable. Or
Request timed out.
Cable Connectivity Checkup
Verify that the Power, Local Link, and Global LEDs are lit. Go to the "Hardware Connections" section and verify that all cables are attached correctly.
Device Alive Checkup
Issue a PING command to the IP address of the device's local port. The device and cable are working properly if it is successful.
ISP Connectivity Checkup
Issue a PING command to the IP address of your ISP's Gateway or DNS server. You may need to check the settings in the DI-701 via the Windows GUI if this is dynamically set.
For Example:
C:\> PING 203.66.81.254
If successful, you can reach your ISP server.
If unsuccessful you may be having trouble connecting to your ISP, please verify that the DI-701 is properly configured to connect to your ISP. Also verify that your Cable/DSL modem is functioning properly.
Internet Connectivity Checkup
PING to an IP address or domain name on Internet.
For Example:
C:\> PING 168.95.192.1 -w 5000
C:\> PING www.yahoo.com -w 5000
If successful, you are connected to the Internet.
If you can ping the ISP's gateway, but cannot ping a specific site on the Internet, odds are your ISP has an internal problem. Call them for support.

Super Admin Access
The DI-701 supports a super-admin mode that is typically reserved by the ISP or other service provider. It allows a user limit to be set via the usrlimit command in terminal mode. To login with Super Admin access, the factory default password is "year2000". At boot up, when prompted for the password enter "year2000". The command prompt will change from "command>" to "admin>". It is recommended you change this password as quickly as possible to ensure that the device is more secure.
usrlimit
Sets a limit on the number of maximum users that can use the DI-701 to share Internet Access. Please note that once a limit is set, a normal command login will no longer have security rights to change the number of addresses in the IP pool. The Set command will no longer provide this as an option. However, the Show command will display the current usrlimit setting as the size of the pool. To remove the limit, simply enter the limit as 0.
Example:
D-Link IShare, version 2.00

Resetting the BIOS
In the case that you have forgotten your passwords, the DI-701 can be reset to factory defaults (command: Blank password, Super Admin:"year2000") through the BIOS. For security reasons, the BIOS can only be reset using the console serial port. See the instructions in the "Getting Started (HyperTerminal)" section of this manual for instructions on connecting to the DI-701 via the console serial port.
When connected to the DI-701, during the boot up sequence, you must push the <Esc> key. A prompt "BIOS>" will appear. Type "-p" and then "-g" to reset the BIOS. You can then reboot the unit and login using the factory default passwords.
FIRMWARE UPGRADE
System Requirements
* One free COM port on PC.
* A pin-to-pin RS-232 cable. One end is 9 pin male connector, the other end is 9 or 25 pin female connector depends on the COM port.
* FWUPLOAD.EXE : This is a DOS program for firmware upload. You can execute this file in Windows 95/98/NT or at DOS prompt.
* FIRMWARE.BIN :This is a firmware image file. This file MUST reside in the same subdirectory with FWUPLOAD.EXE.
For better disk access speed, it is recommended that you copy these two files to your hard disk before uploading them to the DI-701.
Performing a Firmware Upgrade
Connect the RS-232 cable from the Console port of your DI-701 to the PC COM port.
1. At the DOS prompt, run FWUPLOAD.EXE with COM port specified. You can type "FWUPLOAD -?" first for reference.
For example: To use port COM 1 to upload firmware, type command as:
C:\> FWUPLOAD 1
2. Turn on the DI-701. FWUPLOAD.EXE automatically detects the DI-701 and completes the upload. A sequence of messages similar to the following appears.
DI-701 - Firmware upgrade program ver 1.0.
Copyright 1999.
FWUPLOAD -? for usage help.
press <ESC> to abort this program. Waiting for DI-701 to turn on . . .
