VoIP Telephone Service with Your SVG1501
The SVG1501 allows you to use the cable Internet connection for VoIP telephone service
with the same features as your traditional telephone service. You must contact a VoIP
service provider for this feature to work with the SVG1501.
You can connect up to two standard telephone lines using the SVG1501, supporting:
• Local and long-distance calling
• Standard telephone features like call hold and mute, caller ID, speed dial, call
forwarding, call waiting, call return, three-way calling, and voice mail
• Telephone modem and fax support
CAUTION: Use only a standard telephone. Digital phones used in many
businesses that connect to a PBX (private branch exchange) do not
operate with the SVG1501.
Wireless LAN
Wireless communication occurs over radio waves rather than a wire. Like a cordless
telephone, a WLAN uses radio signals instead of wires to exchange data. A wireless
network eliminates the need for expensive and intrusive wiring to connect computers
throughout the home or office. Mobile users can remain connected to the network even
when carrying their laptop to different locations in the home or office.
Each computer or other device on a WLAN must be Wi-Fi enabled with either a built-in or
external wireless adapter.
Laptops — Use a wireless notebook adapter in the PCMCIA slot or a wireless USB
adapter.
Desktops — Use a wireless PCI adapter, wireless USB adapter, or compatible product in
the PCI slot or USB port, respectively.

Sample Wireless Network Connections
To set up the SVG1501 on a computer wired to the SVG1501 with an Ethernet
connection, perform the procedures in the section, Wireless Pages. Do not attempt to
configure the SVG1501 over a wireless connection.
Your maximum wireless operation distance depends on the type of materials through
which the signal must pass and the location of your SVG1501 and clients (stations).
Motorola cannot guarantee wireless operation for all supported distances in all
environments.
Wired Ethernet LAN
You can easily connect any PC with an Ethernet LAN port to the SVG1501 Ethernet
connection. Because the SVG1501 Ethernet port supports auto-MDIX, you can use a
straight-through or cross-over cable to connect a hub, switch, or computer. Use
category 5, or better, cabling for all Ethernet connections.
Sample Ethernet to Computer Connection
The physical wiring arrangement has no connection to the logical network allocation of IP
addresses.
A wired Ethernet LAN with more than one computer requires one or more hubs,
switches, or routers. You can:
• Connect a hub or switch to the Ethernet port on the SVG1501.
• Use Ethernet hubs, switches, or routers to connect up to a combination of 245
computers and wireless clients to the SVG1501.
More detailed information on Ethernet cabling is beyond the scope of this document.

WPA/WPA2 Encryption When using WPA or WPA2 authentication, these WPA
encryption modes can be set: TKIP, AES, or TKIP + AES. AES
(Advanced Encryption Standard) provides the strongest
encryption, while TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
provides strong encryption with improved compatibility. The
TKIP + AES mode allows both TKIP and AES-capable clients
to connect.
WPA Pre-Shared Key

RADIUS Key Sets the shared secret for the RADIUS connection. The key is
a 0 to 255 character ASCII string.
Group Key Rotation Interval Sets the WPA Group Rekey Interval in seconds. Set to zero to
disable periodic rekeying.
WPA/WPA2 Re-auth Interval The re-authentication interval is the amount of time the
wireless router can wait before re-establishing authentication
with the CPE.
WEP Encryption WEP Encryption Enables or disables Wired Equivalent Privacy
encryption.
Shared Key Authentication The WEP protocol uses Shared Key Authentication, which is
an Authentication protocol where the CPE sends an
authentication request to the access point. Then the access
point sends a challenge text to the CPE.
The CPE uses either the 64-bit or 128-bit key to encrypt the
challenge text and sends the encrypted text to the access
point. The access point will decrypt the encrypted text and
then compare the decrypted message with the original
challenge text. If they are the same, the access point will let
the CPE connect; if it doesn’t match, then the access point
does not let the CPE connect.

Setting Up Your Wireless LAN
You can use the SVG1501 as an access point for a wireless LAN (WLAN) without
changing its default settings.
CAUTION: To prevent unauthorized eavesdropping or access to WLAN
data, you must enable wireless security. The default SVG1501 settings
provide no wireless security. After your WLAN is operational, be sure to
enable wireless security
To enable security for your WLAN, you can do the following on the SVG1501:
• Encrypt wireless LAN transmissions
• Restrict wireless LAN access to further prevent unauthorized WLAN intrusions using
the Wireless 802.11 Access Control Page
CAUTION: Never provide your SSID, WPA or WEP passphrase, or WEP
key to anyone who is not authorized to use your WLAN.
Connect at least one computer to the SVG1501 Ethernet port to perform configuration.
Do not attempt to configure the SVG1501 over a wireless connection.
You need to configure each wireless client (station) to access the SVG1501 LAN as
described in Installing Wireless Clients.
Another step to improve wireless security is to place wireless components away from
windows. This decreases the signal strength outside the intended area.
Encrypting Wireless LAN Transmissions
To prevent unauthorized viewing of data transmitted over your WLAN, you must encrypt
your wireless transmissions. Choose one of:
Encrypting Wireless LAN Transmissions
Configure on the SVG1501 Required on Each Wireless Client
If all of your wireless clients
support Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA), Motorola recommends
configuring WPA on the SVG1501
If you use a local pre-shared key (WPA-PSK)
passphrase, you must configure the identical
passphrase to the SVG1501 on each wireless client.
Home and small-office settings typically use a local
passphrase.
Otherwise, configure WEP on the
SVG1501
You must configure the identical WEP key to the
SVG1501 on each wireless client.
5 • Wireless Pages 42
This document is uncontrolled pending incorporation in a Motorola CMS
If all of your wireless clients support WPA encryption, Motorola recommends using WPA
instead of WEP because WPA:
• Provides much stronger encryption and is more secure
• Provides authentication to ensure that only authorized users can log in to your WLAN
• Is much easier to configure

For new wireless LANs, Motorola recommends purchasing client adapters that support
WPA encryption.
Installing Wireless Clients
Note: Use the SVG1501 Installation CD-ROM to set your clients
security. The passcode is located on the modem label.
For each wireless client computer (station), install the wireless adapter by following the
instructions supplied with the adapter. Be sure to:
1. Insert the CD-ROM for the adapter in the CD-ROM drive on the client.
2. Install the device software from the CD.
3. Insert the adapter in the PCMCIA or PCI slot or connect it to the USB port.
4. Configure the adapter to obtain an IP address automatically.
On a PC with Wireless Client Manager installed, the icon is displayed on the
Windows task bar. Double-click the icon to launch the utility. You may need to do the
following to use a wireless client computer to access the Internet:

Installing a Wireless Client for WPA
If you enabled WPA and set a PSK Passphrase by configuring WPA on the SVG1501, you
must configure the same passphrase (key) on each wireless client. The SVG1501 cannot
authenticate a client if:
• WPA is enabled on the SVG1501 but not on the client
• The client passphrase does not match the SVG1501 PSK Passphrase
CAUTION: Never provide the PSK Passphrase to anyone who is not
authorized to use your WLAN.
Configuring a Wireless Client for WEP
If you enabled WEP and set a key by configuring WEP on the SVG1501, you must
configure the same WEP key on each wireless client. The SVG1501 cannot authenticate
a client if:
• Shared Key Authentication is enabled on the SVG1501 but not on the client
• The client WEP key does not match the SVG1501 WEP key
For all wireless adapters, you must enter the 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key generated by the
SVG1501.
CAUTION: Never provide the WEP key to anyone who is not authorized
to use your WLAN.
Configuring a Wireless Client with the Network Name
(SSID)
After you specify the network name on the Wireless Basic Page, many wireless cards or
adapters automatically scan for an access point, such as the SVG1501 and the proper
channel and data rate. If your card requires you to manually start scanning for an access
point, do so following the instructions in the documentation supplied with the card. You
must enter the same SSID in the wireless configuration setup for the device to
communicate with the SVG1501.
6 Parental Control Pages
The SVG1501 Parental Control Pages allow you to configure access restrictions to a
specific device connected to the SVG1501 LAN.
You can click any Parental Control submenu option to view or change the
configuration information for that option.
Parental Control User Setup Page
This page is the master page. Each user is linked to a specified time access rule, content
filtering rule, and login password to get to the filtered content. You may also specify a
user as a “trusted user,” which means that person will have access to all Internet
content regardless of the filters that you define. You can use the Trusted User checkbox
as a simple override to grant a user full access, while storing all of the filtering settings
for easy availability.
You can also enable Internet session duration timers, which set a limited amount of time
for Internet access from the rules you select. The user must enter their password only
the first time to access the Internet. It is not necessary to enter the password each time
a new web page is accessed. In addition, there is a password inactivity timer. If there is
no Internet access for the specified time in minutes, the user must login again. These
timed logins ensure that a specific user uses the Internet gateway appropriately.

B Glossary
This glossary defines some of the terms and acronyms used in this document.
TERM DEFINITION
Authentication A process where the CMTS verifies that access is authorized, using a
password, trusted IP address, or serial number.
coaxial cable A type of cable consisting of a center wire surrounded by insulation
and a grounded shield of braided (coax) wire. The shield minimizes
electrical and radio frequency interference. Coaxial cable has high
bandwidth and can support transmission over long distances.
DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol server – dynamically assigns IP
addresses to client hosts on an IP network. DHCP eliminates
manually assigning static IP addresses by “leasing” an IP address
and subnet mask to each client. It enables the automatic reuse of
unused IP addresses.
The SVG1501 is simultaneously a DHCP client and a DHCP server.
A DHCP server at the cable system headend assigns a public IP
address to the SVG1501 and optionally to clients on the SVG1501
LAN.
The SVG1501 contains a built-in DHCP server that assigns private IP
addresses to clients.
downstream In a cable data network, this is the direction of the data received by
the computer from the Internet.
gateway A device that enables communication between networks using
different protocols. The SVG1501 enables up to 245 computers
supporting IEEE 802.11b/g or Ethernet to share a single broadband
Internet connection.
MAC address The Media Access Control address is a unique, 48-bit value
permanently saved in ROM at the factory to identify each Ethernet
network device. It is expressed as a sequence of 12 hexadecimal
digits printed on a label on the bottom of the SVG1501. You need to
provide the HFC MAC address to the Internet Service provider. Also
called an Ethernet address, physical address, hardware address, or
NIC address.
pass-through A pass-through client on the SVG1501 LAN obtains its public IP
address from the Internet Service provider’s DHCP server.
port triggering A mechanism that allows incoming communication with specified
applications. Primarily used for gaming applications.
B • Glossary 60

TERM DEFINITION
private IP An IP address assigned to a computer on the SVG1501 LAN by the
DHCP server on the SVG1501 for an address-specified lease time.
Private IP addresses are used by the SVG1501 LAN only; they are
invisible to devices on the Internet. See also public IP address.
public IP address The IP address assigned to the SVG1501 by the Internet Service
provider. A public IP address is visible to devices on the Internet. See
also private IP address.
RJ-11 The most common type of connector for household or office phones.
RJ-45 An 8-pin modular connector; this is the most common connector
type for 10Base-T or 100Base-T Ethernet networks.
subscriber A home or office user who accesses television, data, or other
services from an Internet Service provider.
synchronous The SVG1501 uses synchronous timing for upstream data
transmissions. The CMTS broadcasts timing messages that
bandwidth is available. The SVG1501 reserves data bytes requiring x
number of mini-slots. The CMTS replies that it can receive data at a
specified time (synchronized). At the specified time, the SVG1501
transmits the x-number of data bytes.
upstream In a cable data network, upstream describes the direction of data
sent from the subscriber’s computer through the cable modem to
the CMTS and the Internet.
WPA Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption, as described on the Wi-Fi
Alliance web page: http://www.wifialliance.org. It is a far more robust
form of encryption than WEP. Motorola recommends using WPA if
all of your client hardware supports WPA.
