Product Overview Chapter 1 Chapter 1: Product Overview Thank you for choosing the Linksys Wireless ADSL2+ Gateway. The Gateway lets you access the Internet via a wireless connection or through one of its four switched ports. You can also use the Gateway to share resources such as computers, printers and files. A variety of security features help to protect your data and your privacy while online. Security features include WPA2 security, a Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall and NAT technology.
Wireless Security Checklist Chapter 2 Chapter 2: Wireless Security Checklist Wireless networks are convenient and easy to install, so homes with high-speed Internet access are adopting them at a rapid pace. Because wireless networking operates by sending information over radio waves, it can be more vulnerable to intruders than a traditional wired network. Like signals from your cellular or cordless phones, signals from your wireless network can also be intercepted.
Installation Chapter 3 Chapter 3: Installation Linksys strongly recommends that you run the Setup CDROM. If you have problems running the Setup CD-ROM, use this chapter. Connection 1. Make sure that all the devices that you are working with are powered down, including your computer(s) and the Gateway. If you have a modem connected to your network, disconnect it. The Gateway replaces your modem. 2. Connect one end of the provided Ethernet cable to your computer’s Ethernet adapter.
Installation Chapter 3 Setup For setup, configure the Gateway to access the Internet through your ADSL Internet Service Provider (ISP). Use the setup information provided by your ISP.
