Powerful Features in a Single Unit

The Motorola SBG1000 Wirel ess Cable Modem Gateway combines high-speed Inte rnet access, networking, and computer securit y for a home or small-off ice local area network (LAN). It provides:
An integrated high-speed SURFboard cable modem for continuous broadband access to the Internet and
other online services, with much faster data transfer than traditional dial-up or ISDN modems.
A router with a five-port 10/100Base-T Ethernet switch, supporting:
— Half- or full-duplex connections — Five dual-purpose switch/uplink ports
— Auto-MDIX
An IEEE 802.1 1b Wi-Fi certified wireless access point to enabl e laptop users to remain connected while
moving around the home or small office or to connect desktop computers wit hout installing network wiring. Depending on distance, wireless connection speeds can match that of Ethernet at 11 Mbps.
An HPNA connection to connect computers to the LAN over existing telephone wiring — this provides the
advantage of usin g your existing phone lines for network wiring with up to 10 Mbps throughput.
A USB connection for a single PC.
A single broadband conne ction for up to 253 computers to surf the web; all computers on the Ethernet,
wireless, HPNA LAN, and USB communicate as if they were connected to the same physical network.
A built-in DHCP server to easil y configure a combined wired and/or wireless Class C private LAN.
An advanced firewall, supporting:
stateful-inspection — Intrusion det ection —DMZ — Denial-of-servi ce attack prevention — Network Address Translation (NAT)
Virtual priv ate net work (VPN) pass-through operation supporting IPSec, PPTP, or L2TP to securely connect
remote computers over the Internet.
A print server to enable Windows
®
, Macinto sh®, UNIX®, and Linux® computers to share one or more printers.

HPNA LAN

To eliminate the need to install network wiring, the Motor ola SBG1000 Wireless Cable Mod em Gateway provides a Home Phoneline Network Alliance (HPNA or HomePNA) connection. HPNA networks use existing telephone lines to connect the computers without interfering with telephone voice service, DSL, ISDN, modems, or fa x machines. HPNA networks can extend up to 300 meters (1000 feet).
Sample HPNA network connections
Phone system
Each computer requires an HPNA a dapter to connect to the HPNA network. HPNA adapters (sold elsewher e) are available for PCI or USB. After installing the HPNA adapter, you must install HPNA driver software on the computer follow ing the instructions provided with the HPNA adapter.
HPNA 2.0 supports 10 Mbps data transfer similar to Ethernet 10Base-T. If there is more than one telephone line, you m ust make all HPNA connect ions to the same line. You can connect
a telephone to the top HPNA port on the SBG1000 (see “Front Panel” on page 6).

IEEE 802.11b Wireless LAN
Wireless communication occurs over radio waves rather than a wire. Like a cordless telephone, a wireless LAN uses radio signals instead of wires to exchan ge data. A wireless network eliminates the need for expensive and intrusive wiring to connect computers throughout the home or of fice. Mobile users can remain connected to the network even when carrying their laptop to different locations in the home or office.
Each computer on a wireless LAN requires an adapter described in “Optional Acces sories” on page 4:
For wireless laptops connections, use a Motorola PCC11b Wireless Card in the PCMCIA slot.
For wireless desktop connections, use a Motorola USB11b Wireless Adapter to connect your PC USB port.
Sample wireless network conn ections
To set up the SBG1000, on a computer wired to the SBG1000 over Ethern et or USB, perf orm the procedures in
“Setting Up the Wireless LAN” on page 67.
To set up each wireless client (station):
1 Insert th e PCC1 1b and USB1 1b W ireless Adapter CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive on the client. 2 Install the devi ce software from the CD. 3 Connect the Motorola PCC11b wireless card or USB11b wireless adapter following the instructions supplied

Firewall
The SBG1000 firewall prote cts th e SBG1000 LAN from undesired at tacks and other intru sions fr om the Inter net. It provides an advanced i ntegrated stateful-inspection firewall supporti ng intrusion detect ion, session tracking, and denial-of-service attack prevention. The fi rewal l:
Maintains state data for every TCP/IP session on the OSI network and transport layers
Monitors all incoming and outgoing packets, applies the firewall policy to each one, and screens for improper
packets and intrusion attempts
Provides comprehensive logging for all:
— User authentications — Rejected internal and external connection requests — Session creation and termination — Outside attacks (intrusi on detection)
You can configure the f irewall filters to set rules for port usage and t o block specific IP domains and networks. For information about choosing a default firewall policy, see “Setting the Firewall Policy” on page 36.

A DMZ pr event s direc t acces s by ou tsi de us ers to p rivate dat a . You can use a DMZ to set up a web server without exposing confidential data on your network . A DMZ is also useful for gamers that have a problem running a computer game’ s prot ocol t hrough a fire wall. DMZ prov ides t he gamer a way t o ex pose a sin gle host directly to th e Internet and thus overcome any firewall iss ues.

Wireless Security

To prevent unauthori zed eavesdropping of data transmitted over the wireless LAN, you must enable wireless security. The default Open authentication setting provides no security for transmitte d data.
Yo u can encrypt data transmitted over the IEEE 802.11b wireless interface by configuring a WEP key on the Motorola SBG1000 Wireless Cable Modem Gateway and wireless LAN clients (stat io n s ).
You can also define a MAC access control list to restrict wireless LAN access to specified cl ients based on the client MAC addr ess.
If you enabl e closed network operation, the network name (ESSID) is not transmitted in the IEEE 802.11b beacon frame. This provides additional net work protection because only IEEE 802.11b stations that are configured with your network name can associate with the SBG1000. Cl osed network operation i s not part of the IEEE 802.11b standard
For information about configuring a WEP key, see “Configuring Basic Wireless LAN Security” on page 69.

Virtual Private Net work s

The SBG1000 allows multiple tunnel VPN pass-through operation to securely connect remote computers over the Internet through the SBG1000. The SBG1000:
Is compatibl e with Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) and Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)
Is fully interoperable with any IPSec client or gat eway and ANX cert ified IPSec stacks

Before you connect or disconnect the USB or Ethernet cable from the SBG1000 or PC, always touch the
coaxial cable conn ector on the SBG1000 to rele ase any static charges.
T o avoid damaging the SBG1000 or computers with static electricity:
Always make the wall connection first.
Before you connect or dis conne ct the USB or Ethernet cables, always touch the coaxial cable connector on the SBG1000.
To avoid potential shock, alway s unplug the power cord from the wal l out let or other power source before disconnecting it from the SBG1000 r ear panel.
To prevent overheating the SBG1000, do not block the ventilati on holes on the bottom of the unit. Do not open the unit. Refer all service to your cable service provider. Wipe the unit with a clean, dry cl oth. Never use cleaning fluid or similar chemicals. Do not spray cleaners directly

Distance Data Tran sfer Rate
30 meters (100 feet) 11 Mbps 50 meters (165 feet) 5.5 Mbps 75 meters (230 feet) 2Mbps 95 meters (300 feet) 1Mbps
The maximum wireless operation distance depends on the type of materials through which the signal must pass and the location of the diversity antennas and clients (stations). Motorola cann ot guarantee wireless operation for
all supported distances in all environments.
To install the optional Motorola External Diversity Antenna:
1 Be sure the SBG1000 is unplugged. As with all electronic equipment, avoid potential shock by always
unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet or oth er power source before disconnecting it from the SBG1000 rear panel.
2 Remove the antennas on the SBG1000 by unscrewing the connectors. You may need a pair of needle nose
