Connecting the DFL-300
continued…
To setup the DFL-300, begin by connecting the AC adapter to a power source.
The Power LED on the front of the DFL-300 should now be on.
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the Internal/LAN port of the
DFL-300 and the other end of the cable into a hub or switch on your network.
If the cable connection is good, a green LED on the front of the DFL-300
should come on for Internal Link.
Now with another Ethernet cable, connect one end to the External/WAN port
of the DFL-300 and the other end to your Broadband modem. The External
Link LED on the front should now also come on.
Setting Up the Computer
By default, the DFL-300 firewall is a DHCP Server. You can set your
computer to obtain an IP address. Follow the below steps to do so. If you
prefer, you can set your computer up with a static IP address in the range of
192.168.1.2 ~ 192.168.1.254.
