Introducing the Diva 2440 ADSL Router
The Eicon® Networks Diva 2440 ADSL Router provides fast access to the Internet via ADSL
and is perfect for home users and small office / home office users. It is easy to set up and has
many features that will help you get the most out of your ADSL line.
The Diva 2440 can accommodate two users directly via its Ethernet and USB ports (USB can
be used with Windows® 98/2000/Me only). You can also connect a hub to the Diva 2440 and
share Internet access amongst all users on the network. The Diva 2440’s built-in DHCP server
can automatically assign IP addresses to all workstations on your LAN.
The Diva 2440 addresses security concerns via built-in Network Address Translation (NAT)
which allows multiple computers to share a single external IP address while making them
invisible to the Internet.
The Diva 2440 also features a pass-through telephone port with built-in microfilter.
The following provides a brief overview of the many features of the Diva 2440.
General Features
• Easy to Set Up: Installation is a simple and straightforward procedure. You will be up and
running in just a few minutes.
• Web-base Configuration: The Diva 2440 is configured via a web browser. Settings are
organized in logical groups, and making changes is quick and easy.
• Command Line Interface: All settings can also be configured using a command line interface
(Telnet application required).
ADSL and Network Features
• Support for Full-rate and G.Lite ADSL: The Diva 2440 is an ADSL (Asymmetric Digital
Subscriber Line) device supporting transfer of up to 8 Mbps. Two popular versions of ADSL
are built in to the Diva 2440, Full-rate and G.Lite.
• DHCP Support: The Diva 2440 can act as a DHCP server for your LAN. This lets you avoid
having to assign specific IP addresses to the computers on your network.
Hardware Features
• USB and Ethernet Ports: The Diva 2440 can connect to your computer through both the
Ethernet and USB ports (USB is Windows 98/2000/Me only). Setup via either port is simple
and easy. You can also connect the Diva 2440 to an Ethernet hub, giving all computers on
the network access to the Internet.
• Simultaneous Port Usage: The USB and Ethernet ports can be used simultaneously. You
can connect one computer to the Ethernet port and another to the USB port, and both devices
can access the ADSL line when needed or exchange data between the two local computers.
See Connection Scenarios on page 8 for more information.
• Upgradable Firmware: The Diva 2440’s firmware (a set of software instructions that tells the
device how to operate) is stored in flash memory on the device. This makes it easy to upgrade
the firmware should it become necessary to do so.

Introduction Page 9
How ADSL Works
ADSL uses regular household telephone lines to receive and transmit data. To accomplish this
task, ADSL data is transmitted on frequencies outside of the normal voice call range. This way
the signals from the two devices do not interfere with each other.
ADSL provides two major benefits:
• Phone lines always free: Although the Diva 2440 uses the same wiring as your regular
telephone, you can still pick up the phone and make a call at any time.
• Instant access: Unlike traditional dial-up modems, a connection made using the Diva 2440
is always on. You no longer have to wait while your modem dials into your Internet provider.
Splitters and ‘Splitterless’ Operation
A splitter is a device installed at the entry point of the telephone line to your house and is used
to eliminate interference between the ADSL and voice signals. However, splitters must be
installed by a technician from your telephone company and usually require new telephone
wiring to be installed.
The Diva 2440 can operate with or without a splitter with both Full-rate and G.Lite ADSL.
Microfilters
For most splitterless installations, you most likely will need to install a microfilter between your
telephone devices (telephone, fax machine, answering machine) and the telephone jacks.
Microfilters filter out the frequencies outside of the normal voice call range and reduce
interference between ADSL transmissions and voice transmissions.
See About Microfilters on page 33 for more information. Microfilters may or may not be
included in your package. Contact your ADSL provider for more details.

About the Ethernet Cable
The yellow Ethernet cable is a crossover cable and is used to connect the Diva 2440 directly to
a single computer. To connect the Diva 2440 to a network hub, you must use the included
straight-through Ethernet cable. (This cable may be blue or grey.) You can also connect the
yellow cable to the hub’s uplink port, if available.
However, the yellow cable can be used if your hub has a uplink port. Consult the
documentation included with your hub for further information.
Setup Page 24
General Setup Procedure
The following is a general guideline for the setup procedure you must follow when setting up
the device on a LAN.
1.
Connect the Diva 2440 to the hub on your LAN.
2.
Contact the Diva 2440 using a computer on your LAN as described in Step 2: Access the
Diva 2440 Web Interface on page 18. If you are using Windows, this is more easily done
with the Diva Assistant (see Using the Diva Assistant to set on a LAN).
Note: If you cannot contact the device over a LAN, use a single non-networked computer
for initial configuration, with the yellow Ethernet cable.
Complete the Internet Wizard as described in Step 3: Complete the Internet Wizard on
3.
page 19, then verify that the Internet is accessible from the required machines.
Adjust other LAN settings, such as those on a router or on the Diva 2440 itself.
4.
Built-in DHCP Server
The Diva 2440 has a built-in DHCP server. When you drop the Diva 2440 into a LAN, the
Diva 2440 senses if another DHCP server exists and de-activates its own DHCP services. To
re-activate the DHCP server, disable the other server, then press the Reset button.
Using the Diva Assistant to set on a LAN
The default LAN IP address for the Diva 2440 is 192.168.1.1. Normally, in order to contact the
Diva 2440 through TCP/IP, your computer’s IP address must be on the same subnet as the
device. For example, your computer could be set to 192.168.1.2.
If at least once computer on your LAN uses Windows, install the Diva Assistant on that
computer and use it to contact and configure the Diva 2440. The Network Wizard, a feature of
the Diva Assistant, will contact the Diva 2440 over a network, without having to change the
computer’s TCP/IP settings.
To use the Network Wizard, right-click on the Diva Assistant icon in the system tray and select
‘Network Wizard’. Once the Diva Assistant has discovered the Diva 2440, you will be asked if
you want to change its IP address.
IP Addressing
If your LAN uses static IP addressing, or if you are using an existing DHCP server, you must
assign the Diva 2440 a unique IP address. To change this setting, access the web interface,
click ‘Advanced Configuration’, click ‘System Settings’, enter a new IP address in the ‘LAN IP
Address’ field, then click ‘Save’.
LAN IP
address
Note: This step is done automatically if the Diva Assistant is used.
Once you click ‘Save’, you will lose contact with the device. To re-access the web interface,
click ‘File’, ‘Open’ in your web browser, then enter the new IP address. You may need to
change the TCP/IP settings on your computer before being able to access the Diva 2440 after
the IP address has been changed.

However, if your computer is set to acquire its IP address dynamically from a DHCP server, you
need only restart your computer (or reset the IP address manually using ‘winipcfg’ with
Windows 9x or ‘ipconfig /renew’ for Windows 2000/NT). The Diva 2440 will assign the new
address.
Adjusting LAN Settings
The following are further changes you may need to make to your LAN setup. However, due to
the wide range of networking equipment and topologies, these are only guidelines.
If your LAN has a DHCP Server
If your LAN has a DHCP server, configure your DHCP server to return the address of the
Diva 2440 as the ‘Default Gateway’ and ‘DNS Server’ to all clients.
If your LAN uses Static IP Addresses
If your LAN uses static addressing, you must configure the TCP/IP settings on each computer.
Specifically, set each computer’s ‘Default Gateway’ and ‘DNS Server’ settings to the address of
the Diva 2440.
If your LAN has a router
If you have a router on your LAN, it is likely configured as the default gateway for your
computers. In this case, you will need to configure the routing table on your router to re-direct
the appropriate traffic to the Diva 2440.

TCP/IP Setup
To be able to communicate with the Diva 2440 via Ethernet, your computer must have TCP/IP
installed and configured to act as a DHCP client. This allows your computer to acquire its IP
address and other settings from your provider’s DHCP server dynamically.
The following procedures describe how to set your TCP/IP settings for Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Macintosh (Mac OS 8). For other
platforms, consult the documentation for your operating system.
