Introduction
Thank you for purchasing DI-704P 4-Port Ethernet Broadband Router. The DI-
704P is an Ethernet Broadband Router with a built-in 4-port switch. It also fea-
tures a parallel port to share a printer on the home or office network and in-
cludes a print server application for Windows

. As many as four computers can
be connected directly to the router’s integrated switch, using its four 10/100Mbps
AutoMDIX Ethernet ports. More computers can be added to the network by con-
necting additional switches to the DI-704P. The DI-704P package even includes
an Ethernet cable to get you started.
The DI-704P is ideal if you’re creating your first home or small business net-
work, or if you’re a more advanced user looking for additional management
settings.
The DI-704P includes a new, easy-to-use D-Link web-based graphical user
interface (GUI) to configure the router. To prevent unwanted Internet intruders
from accessing your private network, the DI-704P also serves as a feature-rich
firewall.
So, whether you’re a college student who wants to network with friends and
roomates, an executive working at home or in a small office, or a concerned
parent who just wants to have more control over how your children access the
Internet, then the D-Link Express
EtherNetwork
DI-704P is the networking solu-
tion for you.
