CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of the Barricade Wireless Broadband Router with built-in ADSL Modem (SMC7404WBRA). We are proud to provide you with a powerful yet simple communication device for connecting your local area network (LAN) to the Internet. For those who want to surf the Internet in the most secure way, this Router provides a convenient and powerful solution. About the Barricade The Barricade provides Internet access to multiple users by sharing a single-user account.
INTRODUCTION • NAT also enables multi-user Internet access via a single user account, and virtual server functionality (providing protected access to Internet services such as Web, FTP, e-mail, and Telnet). • VPN pass-through (IPSec-ESP Tunnel mode, L2TP, PPTP). • User-definable application sensing tunnel supports applications requiring multiple connections. • Easy setup through a Web browser on any operating system that supports TCP/IP. • Compatible with all popular Internet applications.
APPLICATIONS • Virtual Server If you have a fixed IP address, you can set the Barricade to act as a virtual host for network address translation. Remote users access various services at your site using a constant IP address. Then, depending on the requested service (or port number), the Barricade can route the request to the appropriate server (at another internal IP address).
INTRODUCTION • Virtual Private Network (VPN) The Barricade supports three of the most commonly used VPN protocols – PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec. These protocols allow remote users to establish a secure connection to their corporate network. If your service provider supports VPNs, then these protocols can be used to create an authenticated and encrypted tunnel for passing secure data over the Internet (i.e., a traditionally shared data network).
CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION Before installing the Barricade Broadband Router with built-in ADSL Modem, verify that you have all the items listed under “Package Contents.” If any of the items are missing or damaged, contact your local distributor or Service Provider where you acquired the router. Also be sure that you have all the necessary cabling before installing the Barricade. After installing the Barricade, refer to “Configuring the Barricade” on page 4-1.
INSTALLATION System Requirements You must meet the following minimum requirements: 2-2 • Internet access from your Internet Service Provider (ISP) using an ADSL modem. • A PC using a fixed IP address or dynamic IP address assigned via DHCP, as well as a gateway server address and DNS server address from your service provider. • A computer equipped with a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet card, a USB-to-Ethernet converter, or an IEEE 802.11b wireless network adapter.
HARDWARE DESCRIPTION Hardware Description The Barricade contains an integrated ADSL modem and connects to the Internet or to a remote site using its RJ-11 WAN port. It connects directly to your PC or to a local area network using any of the four RJ-45 Fast Ethernet LAN ports or via a wireless network adapter. Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate ADSL provides up to 8 Mbps downstream and 640 Kbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.

ISP SETTINGS ISP Settings Please collect the following information from your ISP before setting up the Barricade (for PPPoE, PPPoA or fixed IP users only): • • For PPPoE and PPPoA users • An ISP account user name and password • ISP authentication type or script (if not PAP/CHAP) For fixed IP users • IP address and subnet mask • IP address for your ISP’s Gateway Server and Domain Name Server Connect the System The Barricade can be positioned at any convenient location in your office or home.
INSTALLATION signals through but filter data signals out.) Phone Line Configuration Installing a Full-rate Connection If you are using a full-rate (G.dmt) connection, your service provider will attach the outside ADSL line to a data/voice splitter. In this case you can connect your phones and computer directly to the splitter as shown below: Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) Residential Connection Point (NID) Voice Splitter Data ADSL Router or Ethernet hub or switch Figure 2-1.
CONNECT THE SYSTEM Installing a Splitterless Connection If you are using a splitterless (G.lite) connection, then your service provider will attach the outside ADSL line directly to your phone system.
INSTALLATION Use twisted-pair cabling to connect any of the four LAN ports on the Barricade to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, cascade any of the LAN ports on the Barricade to an Ethernet hub or switch, and then connect your PC or other network equipment to the hub or switch. When inserting an RJ-45 connector, be sure the tab on the connector clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated. Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. This may damage the Barricade.
CHAPTER 3 CONFIGURING CLIENT PC After completing hardware setup by connecting all your network devices, you need to configure your computer to connect to the Barricade. First determine how your ISP issues your IP address. Many ISPs issue these numbers automatically using Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). Other ISPs provide a static IP address and associated numbers, which you must enter manually. How your ISP assigns your IP address determines how you need to configure your computer.
