• This product is for indoor use only. Do not route the Ethernet cable outside of
the building. Exposure of the cables to lightning could create a safety hazard
and damage the product.
• Contact your cable service provider before connecting your gateway to
existing telephone wiring. DO NOT connect the telephone cable from the TEL
port to a traditional telephone (PSTN) service; only connect it to a telephone.

Connecting to Your Computer

Before installing the SVG6x82:
• Check with your service provider to ensure high-speed Internet service is available in your area. A
high-speed Internet connection provided by an Internet service provider is needed to set up a wireless
network.
• Choose a central location in your home where your computer and gateway are preferably near
existing cable and electrical wall outlets.
• Make sure your computer is powered OFF.
Note: The following procedure steps you through the wired Ethernet connection process to make sure
the gateway is properly connected and your network access is working.

Figure 4 – SVG6x82 Connection Diagram

1. Check that a coaxial cable is connected to a cable wall outlet or RF splitter.

2. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the Cable connector on the gateway.

After you have successfully connected the SBG7682 and your wireless devices, you should configure the
gateway to protect your wireless network from unwanted and unauthorized access. Use the SVG6x82
web-based configuration manager to change various default configuration settings on the SVG6x82.

Note: If your gateway was obtained as part of a service package, your service provider may require
alternative configuration methods. If you cannot access any of the HTML pages in the SVG6x82 Web
Manager, please contact your service provider for assistance.

Changing the Default User Name and Password

To prevent unauthorized access and configuration to your wireless
network, it is recommended that you immediately change the default
password after logging on to the gateway for the first time.

The most important recommendation towards securing your wireless home network is to change the
default administrator password on your SVG6x82 and other wireless devices as well.
To ensure that your wireless home network is secure, it is recommended that you follow these best
practices:
• Always create a secure password that is not easily guessed
• Use phrases instead of names that may be easier for you to remember
• Use a combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols
• Continue to change your admin password on a regular basis

To change the default user name and password:

1. Log in to the SGB6782 from any web browser on your computer.
2. Type the Gateway Web Manager IP address, http://192.168.0.1, in the Address bar and then
press Enter. The gateway Login window displays.
3. Type the default username and password as they appear below.

Setting Up the Firewall

You can use the Firewall pages to configure the SVG6x82 firewall filters and firewall alert notifications on
your wireless network. The firewall protects the SVG6x82 LAN from undesired attacks and other
intrusions from the Internet.

Figure 10 – Firewall Main Page

The firewall:
• 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 pages for
improper packets and intrusion attempts.
• Provides comprehensive logging for all
ο User authentications
ο Rejected internal and external connection requests
ο Session creation and termination
ο Outside attacks (intrusion detection)
You can also configure the firewall filters to set rules for port usage.

Basic Firewall
The Web Content Filter page has various settings related to blocking or exclusively allowing different
types of data through the CMRG from the WAN to the LAN. There are three security firewall protection
levels (low, medium, and high) which correspond to the number of services allowed.
Firewall Protection turns ON the Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall features. Block Fragmented IP
packets prevents all fragmented IP packets from passing through the firewall. Port Scan Detection
detects and blocks port scan activity originating on both the LAN and WAN. IP Flood Detection detects
and blocks packet floods originating on both the LAN and WAN.
You can block Java Applets, Cookies, ActiveX controls, popup windows, and Proxies. Firewall Protection
turns on the Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall features.

This Firewall configuration sends firewall attack reports to a standard SysLog server so that multiple
instances can be logged over a period of time. You can select individual attack or configuration items to
send to the SysLog server so that only the items of interest will be monitored. You can log any of the
following:
• Permitted connections - Select to have the server e-mail you logs of who is connecting to your
network.
• Blocked connections - Select to have the server e-mail you logs of who is blocked from connecting
to your network.
• Known Internet attack types - Select to have the server e-mail you logs of known Internet attacks
against your network.
• Product configuration events - Select to have the server e-mail you logs of the basic product
configuration events logs.

Note: The SysLog server must be on the same network as the Private LAN behind the Configuration
Manager (typically 192.168.0.x).

Setting Up the DMZ Host
The DMZ (De-militarized Zone) is a computer or small sub-network located outside the firewall, between
the trusted internal private LAN and the untrusted public Internet that prevents direct access by outside
users to private data. DMZ host lets you specify the default recipient of WAN traffic that NAT is unable to
translate to a known local computer.
You can configure one computer to be the DMZ host. This setting is generally used for computers using
problem applications that use random port numbers and do not function correctly with specific port
triggers or the port forwarding setups. If you set up a computer as a DMZ Host, set this back to zero
when you are finished with the needed application, since this computer will be effectively exposed to the
public Internet, though still protected from Denial of Service (DoS) attacks via the Firewall.
For example, you can set up a web server on a DMZ computer to enable outside users to access your
website without exposing confidential data on your network.
A DMZ is also useful to play interactive games that may have a problem running through a firewall. You
can leave a computer used for gaming only exposed to the Internet while protecting the rest of your
network.
To open the DMZ Host page:
1. Click Advanced on the SVG6x82 Menu Options bar.
2. Click DMZ Host from the Status submenu options.
