Product Overview

Product Description

The Verizon® D-Link® DSL-2750B Wireless Gateway provides reliable, high-speed, Internet access to your existing small oce phone line and is capable of data rates hundreds of times faster than a traditional analog modem. But unlike analog modems, the Gateway allows you to use the same phone line for simultaneous voice/fax communications and high-speed Internet access, eliminating the need for dedicated phone lines for voice and data needs. In addition, it supports a variety of networking interfaces along with the following optional features:
• Four 10/100 Ethernet Ports
• 802.11n wireless technology to provide the best wireless performance
• Advanced rewall features including parental control, access control, and content ltering
• Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Push Button/PIN setup
• UPnP Support
• USB port for sharing music/video/images using a thumb drive or external hard drive

Safety Instructions

• Never install any telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specically designed for wet locations.
• Never touch non-insulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Voltages up to 140 Vdc (with reference to ground) may be present on telecommunications circuits.

Installation

This section will explain how to congure your computers to connect to the gateway, congure the gateway to connect to the Internet, and set up your wireless clients.
DSL Filters/Microlters
ADSL signals must be blocked from reaching each telephone, answering machine, fax machine, or any similar conventional device. Failure to do so may degrade telephone voice quality and ADSL performance.
Install a microlter if you desire to use the DSL-equipped line jack for telephone, answering machine, fax machine or other telephone device connections. Microlter installation requires no tools or telephone rewiring. Just unplug the telephone device from the baseboard or wall mount and plug in a microlter and then plug in the telephone device.
You can purchase microlters from your local electronics retailer, or contact the original provider of your DSL equipment.

WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) System is a simplied method for securing your wireless network during the “Initial setup” as well as the “Add New Device” processes. The Wi-Fi Alliance (WFA) has certied it across dierent products as well as manufactures. The process is just as easy, as pressing a button for the Push-Button Method or correctly entering the 8-digit code for the Pin-Code Method. The time reduction in setup and ease of use are quite benecial, while the highest wireless Security setting of WPA2 is automatically used.
Push Button
Step 1: Select Push Button from the drop-down and then click the Go button to start the WPS process.
Step 2: Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless client. Some clients may require you to launch its
software utility and click a WPS button. Please refer to your wireless client’s user guide for more information.
Step 3: Allow 1-2 minutes for the devices to communicate. Once complete your client will connect to the gateway.
Client PIN Code
A PIN is a unique number that can be used to add the router to an existing network or to create a new network. You will need to get the PIN number from one of your wireless clients. Please refer to your wireless client’s user guide for more information.
Step 1: From your wireless client, write down the PIN and activate/start the WPS process.
Step 2: Within 2 minutes from the Gateway, select Client Pin Code from the drop-down, enter the PIN number
in the box, and then click the Go button.
Step 3: Allow 1-2 minutes for the devices to communicate. Once complete your client will connect to the gateway.
