Modem sagemcom f st 2804 v7 setup. Sagemcom router: step-by-step setup for a kettle

In the interface that opens, select the “Advanced Settings” tab and click the “Add” button.

The connection creation window will open. Here we indicate VPI and VCI for the Internet connection. In our area it is 0/33. We don’t change anything else, click the “Apply/Save” button.
Now let's add a connection for IPTV. Click the “Add” button again:

We set VPI and VCI to 0/50 (your Rostelecom branch may have others), press the “Apply/Save” button. Thus, we created 2 second-level interfaces for ADSL.

Now we need to create WAN services. To do this, select the “Advanced settings” item in the menu on the left and select the “WAN service” tab. We delete the registered interfaces by first checking the box in the “Delete” column.

Please note that the remote services listed the eth3.2 interface in the Interface column. This means that this router was configured for FTTB by default. This connection must be deleted too. To do this, in the menu on the left, select Additional settings >>> Level 2 interface ETH interface tab and remove the eth3 interface there.

Setting up PPPoE for Rostelecom

We return to the “WAN service” tab. Click the “Add” button.

Select “atm0/(0_0_33)” for the Internet from the drop-down tab and click the “Next” button.

Depending on the connection type, select either “PPPoE” or “Bridging”. In the first case, the modem will be configured in router mode, it will connect to the Internet and distribute it to connected devices. It is best to configure the router in router mode. It is not advisable to configure an Internet connection in bridge mode. Click the “Next” button.

Enter the username and password from the card and click the “Next” button.
In the following windows, do not change anything, click “Next”. The only thing worth paying attention to is that if the usb0 interface is in the left columns instead of ppp1, it will need to be moved to the right column, and the ppp1 interface, respectively, to the left. At the end, click “apply/save”.
We get the following table in the WAN service section:

Digital television IPTV for Rostelecom.

In the WAN service section, click the “Add” button to create an IPTV configuration:

Select “atm1/(0_0_50)” from the drop-down tab and click the “Next” button.

All that remains is to group the ports for the correct operation of the two services.

Grouping of ports.

Go to the “Interface Grouping” tab, delete the default IPTV group by checking the Delete box.

Then click “Add”. The following window will open:

In the “Group Name” field, write a name, say TV, select the previously created IPTV connection on the right and click on the arrow to move it to the left. In the same way below we bind the ports to this connection, let it be port 4 on the router - “eth3”. Click the “Apply/Save” button.
It should look like this.

Providers Rostelecom and MTS provide subscribers with a Sagemcom ADSL router with modified firmware. If you switch to the services of a provider that “supplies” the Internet via an Ethernet cable, such a router, in particular, fast 2804 V7, can still be used. Even despite the lack of a WAN port. You just need to try to configure this device correctly.

We will consider the following connection option. This is the DHCP protocol, the easiest to configure. For the WAN port, it would be more logical to use the port closest to the ADSL connector (designated “eth3” in the setup program). So the patch cord going to the computer is connected to the LAN 1 - LAN 3 port. Be careful.

Rear panel of the router

Configuring a Sagemcom router for a DHCP connection does not require a hardware reset. If the user has the opportunity to open the interface for configuration (with some address and password), this must be done. But first, we advise you to connect the signal cables correctly.

Setting up basic functions

Router hardware connection

Connect to a PC in the same way as for setting up ADSL connections. In this case, there is no need to occupy the hardware port marked “4”.

Device connection diagram

The computer’s network card must be configured to “Auto” IP and DNS. Then, connect the provider's cable to the fourth LAN port. Lastly, connect the power (and send the PC to reboot).

You need to find out what IP address the router has, as well as the password for the configuration interface.

For the Rostelecom device, the values ​​are as follows:

1. router address – 192.168.1.1
2. login for setup – admin
3. password – too, admin

Open the web interface and make the start tab appear.

Setting up an ETTH connection

How to configure a Sagemcom router is discussed in the instructions supplied by the provider. But we don’t need the “ADSL” connection option. First of all, we perform a “soft reset”. You need the “Management” tab -> “Options...” -> “Reset”:

Soft reset

After performing the reset, go to the “Advanced settings” -> “WAN service” tab and delete all existing interfaces. There shouldn't be any left. The same is done on the “2nd level interfaces” tab:

Clearing Internet connection tables

We've shown you how to do the preliminary steps.

Now, go to the “ETH interface” tab and configure the connection:

• Select the port number that will act as “WAN” and set the “VLAN MUX” mode:

Selecting the “WAN” port

• We configure this port, for which we first click “Next”, then select the connection type (IP over Ethernet), click “Next”
• We configure the “DHCP” connection option, so the IP must be “obtained automatically”:

Setting connection parameters

• We enable NAT, Firewall and, just in case, IGMP Multicast (click “Next”)
• How we selected the “Default Gateway”: in the left column – leave “eth 3.1”, in the right – nothing (click “Next”)
• DNS can be set explicitly, but it is safer to use automatic retrieval:

WAN interface tab

The configured connection should work. If this is not the case, call your provider and inform them that the MAC address has changed. Happy setup!

Additionally, we note that the router of the model in question does not allow “substitution” of the MAC address.

Wireless network in the router

Actually, setting up a wireless access point is discussed in the instructions. We will briefly look at how to configure a Sagemcom wifi router so that an “unprotected” wireless network appears.

Open the “WLAN Settings” -> “Basic” tab. We check that the “Enable wireless communication” checkbox is checked (and also “Enable multicast transmission ...”). We set the SSID, that is, the network name, and click the button labeled “Apply/Save”.

Setting up a wireless network

It is important to know that we configured the router in such a way as to make it possible to watch IPTV (via any PC connected to the router’s network). The IPTV option for STB set-top boxes is configured differently.

In fact, to broadcast IPTV to a local network, all that remains is to enable “IGMP Snooping” in the “Advanced Settings” on the “LAN” tab.

Happy routing!

The film shows an option for setting up a Wi-Fi network with encryption:

Errors when setting up the Sagemcom F@st 2804 router

Theoretically, setting up the Sagemcom F@st 2804, v7 router from Rostelecom is not a problem. Immediately after receiving the router for rent (a couple of years ago), I connected the device to the computer, inserted the supplied disk with the software (Settings Wizard program) into the drive, and after a few minutes the Internet was already working. A couple of days ago I needed to configure the same router for a different subscriber, but the setup from the disk ended with the red light coming on. Those. The Internet LED indicator (with the @ symbol - dog) signaled that there was no Internet connection.

The red light with the @ icon is on on the router - the Internet is unavailable

As a rule, this indicates that incorrect settings have been entered. Since the setup was carried out from the disk, I could only make a mistake when entering the login and password, but the catch is that they were previously “hammered” into Notepad and I simply copied and pasted them, i.e. the error has been eliminated. I reset the settings to factory settings several times and tried to configure the router again using the included disk, the result did not change.

As a reference, I remind you that you can reset the router to factory settings using the Reset button. To get to it, use a paper clip or toothpick.

Error messages during setup

During the “dancing with a tambourine” various errors occurred, which are presented below in the screenshots.

“The wizard did not detect the router” - this means that the setup program does not “see” the router at all

“The router is unavailable” - the message appeared during the Wi-Fi setup stage. Simply put, the computer “lost” the router again

I tried to go into the settings via the web interface (IP 192.168.1.1 , login and password admin), but I couldn't do it. I noticed that you can log in via the web interface without problems if the settings are reset to factory settings. I read on the Internet that the LAN cable should be connected to the second connector and use the IE (Internet Explorer) browser. Alas, the trick also failed.

It is not possible to reach the router’s web interface, although the IP address is entered correctly - 192.168.1.1

Where did the dog rummage?

After unsuccessfully trying to turn the red dog into a green one, I erroneously concluded that the router had failed. I contacted Rostelecom technical support (toll-free technical support number 8 800 100 08 00) and left a request. The next morning I waited for the call and found out key information - When setting up the router, the network cable must be connected to port No. 3, and not No. 2, as indicated in the online source.

When setting up the router, the network cable must be connected to the LAN3 connector - on the Sagemcom 2804 router in a white case, it is marked in green

After connecting the cable to the correct connector, I was able to go into the Sagemcom F@st 2804 settings via the web interface and understand the reason why the “dog” icon was red after trying to configure from the disk. It turned out that the information about the login and password was not saved from the disk after configuration - the corresponding fields were empty!

After entering the username and password, the Internet started working.

The “dog” icon turned green - the Internet is working! Pay attention to the icon for connecting to the Ethernet port - the number “3” lights up next to it, indicating that the cable is connected to LAN3

Is it really that simple?

As my further excrements showed, configuration using the Settings Wizard may end with errors even if the network cable is connected to the LAN3 connector.

As I understand it, the errors “Presence of PPPoE connection” and “Connection to Rostelecom server” indicate that the login/password pair was entered incorrectly, although I again copied the data from Notepad. As you probably already guessed, the login and password were again not saved in the router settings.

There are two ways to solve the problem:

1. Go to settings via the web interface and add a login and password;
2. Restart the router setup from the disk.

Was it possible to do without unnecessary headaches?

It often happens that we pick up the instructions only after we have broken something :) If you take the paper instructions for the Sagemcom F@st 2804, v7 router, then it does not say anything about the need to connect a network cable to the LAN3 connector. However, this is clearly indicated when using the Setup Wizard, which is installed from the CD.

To be honest, I didn’t pay attention to this nuance at all, perhaps due to the fact that earlier, for which the port number is not critical. In general, I wonder how the LAN3 port on the Sagemcom 2804 differs from others?

conclusions

1. When setting up the Sagemcom F@st 2804, v7 universal router from Rostelecom, connect the network cable to the LAN3 port (marked in green).
2. To avoid the hassle of setting up your router via the web interface, use the Settings Wizard from the included CD. If you don’t have a CD, download the Settings Wizard from the official Sagemcom website (the clever software is called “Automatic configuration and firmware update/recovery program”, in short, a settings program).
3. Sometimes you should read the instructions - in many cases this will save you unnecessary headaches.
4. Learn from the mistakes of others, and specifically from ours. To do this, do not forget to bookmark the site :)
