1 OVERVIEW
Thank you for purchasing a Motorola® SVG2500 SURFboard Wireless Voice Gateway
for your home, home office, or small business/enterprise. Applications where the
Motorola SVG2500 is especially useful include:
• Households with multiple computers requiring a network connection and
Internet access
• Small businesses or home offices requiring fast, affordable, and secure Internet
access
• Households and home offices requiring more affordable telephone access with a
Voice-Over-Internet-Protocol (VoIP) connection through the Internet
• Internet gamers desiring easier setup for:
• Programs such as DirectX® 7 or DirectX® 8
• Sites such as MSN Games by Zone.com or Battle.net®
• Video conferencing
A home network enables you to share information between two or more computers.
You can connect your home network to the Internet through your cable TV system.
The SVG2500 is the central connection point between your computers and the
Internet. It directs (routes) information between the computers connected to your
home network. A built-in cable modem transmits information between your home
network and the Internet.

Easy Setup
It is much easier to configure a local area network (LAN) using an SVG2500 than
using traditional networking equipment:
• The Installation Assistant application on the SVG2500 Installation CD-ROM
enables easy connection to the cable network.
• For basic operation, most default settings require no modification.
• The SVG2500 Configuration Manager (CMGR) provides a graphical user interface
(GUI) for easy configuration of necessary wireless, Ethernet, router, DHCP, and
security settings. For information about using the SVG2500 Configuration Manager,
see Section 3, Basic Configuration.
Network Connection Types
The SVG2500 provides different network connection types for your computers to
exchange data. The connection between your computers and the SVG2500 may be
with a wireless or a wired connection or a combination of the two. Your network can
use one or any combination of all the following network connections:
• Ethernet local area network (LAN)
• Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11g that also supports IEEE 802.11b wireless clients)
• Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity) connections to Wi-Fi enabled devices
• Universal Serial Bus (USB)
