In the vastness of our market, a universal and inexpensive device has been spotted - the multifunctional ADSL router F st 2804 v7. In the version provided by Rostelecom, everything is perfectly configured from the included CD. But MTS today provides a similar device with an even greater range of capabilities, but it must be configured via a web interface. In general, the MTC Fast 2804 router creates an ADSL connection no worse than devices from Rostelecom. How to set it up is discussed below.

Routers Fast 2804

In fact, all devices with the word “Fast 2804” in their name are produced by one company – Sagem (also known as Sagemcom). Routers of versions v3, v5 and v7 have reached our country. They may differ in the shape of the case, in addition, the graphical interface is made for a specific provider. In general, these routers have the same capabilities. In terms of setup, the “from MTS” option is the most complicated, although it can create an ADSL connection. We are trying to configure this router for a connection under the PPPoE protocol, in case the connection is provided by a telephone wire. Let's get started.

Setting up basic functions

Connecting the router before setting up

We will configure the MTS device like any other “home” router. First, we connect any LAN port to the PC network card with the supplied patch cord:

Connecting the router to a PC

Then, connect a telephone cable to the ADSL port (you can use the splitter included in the kit). At the final stage, power is supplied to the router (but first, you need to configure the network card in the PC):

Setting up a wired connection on your computer

This completes the preparatory steps. After turning on the router, you need to wait 2-3 minutes, after which you can log into the graphical interface from your computer.

Authorization in the graphical interface

On your computer you need to open any browser (at least IE5) and go to the address: 192.168.1.1.

If everything is done correctly, an authorization window will appear. “admin” is suitable as a login (and “mts” as a password). If authorization is passed, the user will see the following tab:

Main tab of the web interface

The graphical web interface is divided into tabs, which are combined into two lists: “Basic settings”, “Advanced settings”. The first list, as you can see, contains 5 different tabs. Now we will look at how to set up an ADSL connection.

Setting up a connection (PPPoE option)

The F st 2804 router can connect to the Internet via a telephone wire or a 3G modem. We will look at the simplest setup option, when the built-in ADSL modem is used to create a connection, and the provider’s protocol is called “PPPoE”.

Before setting it up, it’s better to write it down on a separate piece of paper:

  1. Subscriber name and password (found in the contract);
  2. VPI and VCI parameter values ​​used by this provider (for example, 0 and 30);
  3. PPPoE encapsulation type: LLC or VC-Mux;
  4. For a permanent IP address (a separate service, usually provided for a fee), you need to know the value of the address.

Settings are made on the advanced mode tabs. Go to this list of tabs, turn on English. On the “Wan Service” tab, located in the “Advanced Setup” menu, you will need to remove (using “Remove”) all existing interfaces:

WAN interface tab with “old” values

ATM interface tab

The same must be done here. Then, you need to go to the “Wan Service” tab again. And now click the “Add” button:

A tab will appear to configure a new connection, where you can select a value, as in the figure:

Settings tab

Then you need to click “Next”. On the next tab, you need to set the VPI and VCI values ​​(instead of the numbers 1 and 91):

For example, if the values ​​0 and 30 are true, the string would be "pppoe_0_0_30_3". Do not leave the values ​​as is - they do not correspond to the user's provider.

In addition, the connection protocol is selected here (after selecting PPPoE, a list will appear where you need to select LLC or VC-Mux). After completing the settings, you can click “Next”.

Connection settings tab

On the next tab, set the user name and password. For a dynamic IP address, you don't need to change anything else. “IGMP Proxy” can be enabled if you plan to watch IPTV. But for a constant IP value, you need to check the “Use static IPv4” checkbox and fill in the field that appears.

After completing the settings, you need to click “Next”, and “Next” again. A tab will appear where you can leave the automatic mode for obtaining DNS (or set certain address values). And the final tab looks like this:

Final connection settings tab

By clicking “Apply/Save” we get a new working connection.

Device Information Tab

The presence of a connection can be judged by the state of the main tab. Happy setup!

Enabling the wireless network

We will configure the Wi-Fi network using “additional settings”. The “Basic” tab from the “Wireless” menu allows you to configure everything you need:

Setting up a wireless network

Let us explain the meanings of the parameters. “Enable Wireless” turns on the transmitter, and “Hide Access Point” will allow you to work with a hidden name.

The SSID field contains the network name (set as required). It is better to set the Country to “RU”. After completing the settings, click the “Apply/Save” button. Wireless network will appear automatically.

Note that the universal router F st 2804 has serious capabilities. For example, the device independently selects the least noisy channel (in the 2.4 GHz range). Automatic selection mode – can be disabled. The transmitter power can also be adjusted. All these parameters are located on the “Advanced” tab, but the user is not recommended to change them unless properly qualified.

The “Security” tab contains encryption options. We do not consider setting up network security.

Additional router features

Setting up IPTV

Oddly enough, the Fast 2804 router creates Internet connections that are several times faster than 3-4 Mbit/s. Therefore, you can view IPTV through computers connected to the local network. To enable this option, you must:

  • When setting up a connection, check the “Multicast Proxy” box (discussed above);
  • On the local network settings tab (“Advanced Setup” -> “LAN” among the “additional settings” of the router), you need to check the “IGMP Snooping” checkbox:

LAN settings tab

After completing these settings, you can watch TV through any computer connected to the router’s network. Now multicast packets used in IPTV enter the local network from the Internet.

Additionally, it is possible to limit multicast traffic on the wireless network. To do this, you need to go to the “Wireless” -> “Advanced” tab (also located in the “advanced settings”) to set the required value in the “Multicast Rate” list. An acceptable choice is 9, 11 or 12 Mbit/s, which is enough for FullHD viewing.

Question answer

Question: I can’t access the graphical interface. IP address 192.168.1.1 is not available.

You can try resetting the router to factory settings. To do this, after turning it on, you need to wait 2 minutes, then press the “RST” button on the rear panel (holding it for 15-30 seconds).

Question: what is the speed of wireless connections, was it not said about choosing a mode (N/G/B)?

This router operates in “mixed” B/G/N mode, the maximum transmission speed in the wireless network is 65 Mbit/s. The use of the “N Only” mode (N only) is not provided.

How to remove the router from the package and connect it correctly is shown in the video:

This review will step by step review and describe the setup of the Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7. This is an entry-level router, which is often sold in addition to the services provided by domestic providers. These include the national MTS and Rostelecom. It is on the example of configuring the connection of such a router to the network equipment of the latest company that this material will be presented.

Network gateway components

Standard and typical supply list for this router. Separately, it should be noted that such a network gateway is tied to the equipment of a specific provider. That is, if the router is designed to work in combination with software and hardware from Rostelecom, then it will only work in this combination.

The delivery list includes a router model Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7. Setting up a Rostelecom connection is described in detail in the operating manual. The manufacturer did not forget to include a warranty card in the package, which is valid for 1 year. This is a complete list of components for this solution. This list is supplemented by a power supply with a 0.5 A output and an interface cord, which is mainly used when setting up a network connection.

Also included in the delivery list is a CD with specialized software. By default, the hero of this article has software version V5, which cannot work normally with Rostelecom equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to reflash the router discussed in this material to version V7.

Main settings

The main parameters of this router are as follows:

  • Three possible methods of connecting to the Internet: Ethernet, ADSL and 2G/3G (in the latter case, you must additionally purchase an external modem and a starter package to be able to connect to a cellular network).
  • Four RJ-45 ports, which can be used both for connecting computing devices via twisted pair to the global web, and for switching television set-top boxes.
  • One USB standard port, which is used to connect a modem.
  • A wireless network based on a Wi-Fi transmitter, within which information can be transmitted at speeds of up to 300 Mbit/sec.

The body of this device is plastic. May be white or black. On one side of it there are information LEDs. The first of them signals the presence of power, the second - an active ADSL connection, the third indicates the availability of information from the Internet. The following information indicator indicates the operation of the wireless network. Next are four LEDs that characterize the functioning of the wired segment of the internal computer network. The last light element in this case shows the operation of the USB port built into the router.

On the top side of the device there is a USB connector and two buttons. One of them includes the network gateway of this model, and the second uses the technology of automatically connecting the device using Wi-Fi.

All connection ports are located on the opposite side of the information panel. These include an ADSL connector, a USB port and 4 RJ-45 ports. There is also a power socket here. There is also a button to reset the software to its original state.

Connection

At the first stage, setting up the Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7 comes down to making the following connections:

  1. We install the router at the place of use. The latter must meet the following requirements: there must be a socket as close as possible, the input ADSL wire and interface cords from computers must be supplied.
  2. Next we connect the power supply.
  3. Then you need to switch with the ADSL provider’s equipment.
  4. The last stage is the collection of the wired part of the computer network.

Setting up an external wired connection

At the first stage, you need to update the router software shell. To do this, on a PC connected to the network gateway, launch the CD and in the autorun window that opens, select the “Router update” item and wait for this operation to complete.

Then setting up the Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7 comes down to configuring the external connection. To do this, we reinitialize the launch of the CD and select “Full setup” in its menu. Next, we follow the instructions of the wizard and set the connection parameters, which can be taken from the contract with the provider for the provision of services. At the end, save the entered data and exit the setup wizard.

Setting up the modem

The next stage is setting up the Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7 modem, with the help of which a backup method of connecting to the Internet is implemented. It consists of the following actions:

  1. We select a supported 3G modem model and purchase it along with the starter package. We put everything together and connect it to the router.
  2. We launch any available browser on a PC that is directly connected to the network gateway.
  3. In its address bar, enter the device address in the format 192.168.1.1.
  4. Next, in the request window, in the “Login” and “Password” fields, you must enter admin. After that, click the “Login” button.
  5. Go to “Advanced Settings” and select the “3G Configuration” sub-item.
  6. Then we set the PIN code for the installed SIM card.
  7. We save the data and exit the program shell.

Setting up an internal connection

The wired connection is automatically configured, and there is no need to perform any additional manipulations with the software parameters of the Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7. Wi-Fi setup also happens automatically. The only thing you definitely need is to rewrite the name of the network and the password to connect to it from the bottom cover of the device. In the future, simply enter them in the appropriate request.

IPTV

The router in question supports IPTV technology, with which you can watch television programs. In this case, the step-by-step setup of the Sagemcom F ST 2804 V7 router is performed as follows:

  1. We go to the router configuration menu using the previously described method.
  2. After opening the setup interface, you need to go to the “Advanced settings” sub-item. Then you need to select “Interface Grouping”.
  3. At the next stage, click the “Add” button and set the connection port for the IPTV set-top box.
  4. Save the settings and exit the setup interface.

Price

Currently, such a router can be purchased for 1200-1500 rubles. Again, it is advisable to purchase such a solution only if Rostelecom acts as the Internet traffic provider. Taking into account the functionality of the device in question, such a cost is quite justified.

Conclusion

A very high-quality, functional and at the same time very affordable network gateway is the Sagemcom F St 2804 V7. Setting it up is a fairly simple operation, and every user can handle it. The provider has simplified the process of its implementation as much as possible. Therefore, such a router is simply ideal for creating home computer networks.

Open the browser and type 192.168.1.1 in the address bar. To enter the settings, use your login admin, password admin.

Configuring the router to connect to the Internet consists of 3 steps:
1. Delete the previous configuration.
2. Setting up a physical interface (configuring a layer 2 interface, indicating which LAN port will be used as a WAN port for connecting the cable FTTB).
3. Configuring a logical WAN interface to work with the physical interface specified in point 2 (configuring the WAN interface with setting parameters for connecting to the Internet).

It is necessary to delete all previously created logical interfaces installed by default in the configuration and create a new layer 2 interface (ETH WAN) to connect to the Internet. To do this you need to go to the menu item Additional settings -> WAN service, check the boxes in the Delete column in each line with interfaces, and click the “Delete” button.
Next, you need to configure a new physical interface to connect to the Internet. To do this, go to the menu item Additional settings -> Layer 2 interface -> ETH interface and click the “Add” button.

The parameter selection window will appear ETH WAN in which you need to select the ETH port and connection mode. Since port No. 4 on the router will be used as a WAN port for connecting to the Internet, you must select ETH as the port eth3/eth3.

If there is an option VLAN MUX(Multiple connections via one vlan), then you need to activate it. To save the settings, click the “Apply/Save” button. After which the interface will be created

After creation ETH Layer 2 interface must be created WAN service. To do this, go to the menu item Additional settings -> WAN service and click the “Add” button

After which the WAN service interface configuration window will appear in which the 2nd layer interface created in the previous step should be selected (in our case it is eth3/eth3)

On the next page, the WAN service type should be selected – PPP over Ethernet. The WAN service description field is left unchanged.

In the PPP username field the Client enters a login, and in the PPP password field - the password issued upon conclusion of the agreement
In the “Routing-Default Gateway” window, the created WAN interface ppp1.1 should be the Selected Default Gateway Interfaces

In the window for selecting the DNS server interface, ppp1.1 should also be on the left side

To apply the settings, click “Apply/Save”

Setting up IP-TV

To connect an STB set-top box, you need to configure the appropriate virtual interface (WAN service) on the router. By default, the cable from the STB set-top box should connect to LAN No. 1 of the router). If you need to connect several TV set-top boxes, then for stable and correct operation of the service you need to configure a grouping of interfaces
In the menu on the left Additional settings -> Layer 2 interface -> WAN service and click the “Add” button

The selected interface must be set to eth3/eth3. In the WAN service configuration selection window, you must select the WAN service type – Bridging. The description of the service can be left unchanged. To apply the settings, click “Apply/Save”.

Interface grouping

Interface grouping is performed in order to separate video traffic from other types of traffic on the client’s local network. And also so that the STB set-top box dynamically receives an IP address from the provider’s network, and not from the DHCP server of your router.
To group interfaces, go to the left menu Additional settings -> Interface grouping. To create, click the “Add” button. We set the parameters as indicated in the screenshot

Now the router is configured to watch IP-TV television. In the above configuration, the cable from the STB should be connected to LAN1 of the router. If the Client has 2 STB set-top boxes, then it is necessary to combine two ports eth0 and eth1 into an IP-TV group. Accordingly, set-top boxes are connected to the LAN1 and LAN2 ports.
