It can be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network using any of the Fast Ethernet LAN ports. Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate ADSL can provide up to 8 Mbps downstream and 640 Kbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems can provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream. ISDN can provide up to 128 Kbps when using two bearer channels. PSTN analog connections can now run up to 56 Kbps. However, you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits. Although access speed to the Internet is determined by the modem type connected to the Router, data passing between devices connected to your local area network can run up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports. The Router includes an LED display on the front panel for system power and port indications that simplifies installation and network troubleshooting. It also provides four RJ-45 LAN ports and one RJ-45 WAN port on the rear panel.

4 RJ-45 ports for connection to a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN). These ports can auto-negotiate the operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode to half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X

(i.e., allowing these ports to be connected to any network device with straight-through cable). These ports can be connected directly to a PC or to a server equipped with an Ethernet network interface card, or to a networking device such as an Ethernet hub or switch. 4 Hardware Description

Warning: Using the wrong type of power adapter may damage your router. 5 Installing the Wireless Barricade g Router System Requirements You must have an ISP that meets the following minimum requirements:

Internet access from your local telephone company or Internet Service Provider (ISP) using a DSL modem or cable 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, or a USB-to-Ethernet converter. TCP/IP network protocol installed on each PC that needs to access the Internet. A Java-enabled web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or above, or Netscape Communicator 4.0 or above installed on one PC at your site for configuring the Router. Connect the System The Router can be positioned at any convenient location in your office or home. No special wiring or cooling requirements are needed. You should, however comply with the following guidelines:

Keep the Router away from any heating devices. Do not place the Router in a dusty or wet environment. You should also remember to turn off the power, remove the power cord from the outlet, and keep your hands dry when you install the Router. 6 Connect the System Basic Installation Procedure 1. Connect the LAN: Connect the Router to your PC, or to a hub or switch. Run Ethernet cable from one of the LAN ports on the rear of the Router to your computers network adapter or to another network device. You may also connect the Router to your PC (using a wireless client adapter) via radio signals. Position both antennas on the back of the Router into the desired positions. For more effective coverage, position the antennas along different axex. For example, try positioning the antennas around 45 to 90 degress apart. (The antennas emit signals along the toroidal plane and thus provide more effective coverage when positioned along different axes.) 2. Connect the WAN: Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting the Router to a cable/xDSL modem or Ethernet router. 3. Power on: Connect the power adapter to the Router.

Connecting the Wireless Barricade g Router 7 Installing the Wireless Barricade g Router Attach to Your Network Using Ethernet Cabling The four LAN ports on the Router auto-negotiate the connection speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and the transmission mode to half duplex or full duplex. Use twisted-pair cable to connect any of the four LAN ports on the Router to an Ethernet adapter on your PC. Otherwise, you can cascade any of the LAN ports on the Router 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 plug, be sure the tab on the plug clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated. Warning: Do not plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. This may damage the Router. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards. Figure 3. Making the LAN Connections 8 Connect the System Attach to Your Network Using Radio Signals Install a wireless network adapter in each computer that will be connected to the Internet or your local network via radio signals. SMC currently offers several wireless network cards, including the SMC2802W and SMC2835W wireless cards. Rotate both antennas on the back of the Router to the desired position. For more effective coverage, position the antennas around 45 to 90 degrees apart. Try to place the Router in a position that is located in the center of your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance. Ensure that the Routers location provides optimal reception throughout your home or office. Computers equipped with a wireless adapter can communicate with each other as an independent wireless LAN by configuring each computer to the same radio channel. However, the Router can provide access to your wired/wireless LAN or to the Internet for all wireless workstations. Each wireless PC in this network infrastructure can talk to any computer in the wireless group via a radio link, or access other computers or network resources in the wired LAN infrastructure or over the Internet via the Router. The wireless infrastructure configuration not only extends the accessibility of wireless PCs to the wired LAN, but also increases the effective wireless transmission range for wireless PCs by retransmitting incoming radio signals through the Router. 9 Installing the Wireless Barricade g Router A wireless infrastructure can be used for access to a central database, or for connection between mobile workers, as shown in the following figure:

Your ISP should provide the IP address of one or more domain name servers. Enter those addresses in this screen. 45 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router LAN

LAN IP Use the LAN menu to configure the LAN IP address for the Router and to enable the DHCP server for dynamic client address allocation. Set a period for the lease time if required. For home networks this may be set to Forever, which means there is no time limit on the IP address lease. IP Address Pool A dynamic IP address range may be specified (192.168.2.2254). IP addresses running from 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.2.199 are the default value. Once the IP addresses, e.g. 192.168.2.100199, have been assigned, these IP addresses will be part of the dynamic IP address pool. IP addresses from 192.168.2.2 to 192.168.2.99, and 192.168.2.200 to 192.168.2.254 will be available as static IP addresses. Remember not to include the address of the Router in the client address pool. Also remember to configure your client PCs for dynamic IP address allocation. 46 Advanced Setup Wireless To configure the Router as a wireless access point for wireless clients (either stationary or roaming), all you need to do is define the radio channel, the Service Set identifier (SSID), and encryption options. Channel and SSID You must specify a common radio channel and SSID (Service Set ID) to be used by the Router and all of your wireless clients. Be sure you configure all of your clients to the same values. ESSID: The Service Set ID. This should be set to the same value as the other wireless devices in your network. Note: The SSID is case sensitive and can consist of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. 47 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router Transmission Rate: Set the rate of data transmitted from the Router. The lower the data rate, the longer the transmission distance. (Default: Fully Automatic.) Channel: The radio channel through which the Router communicates with PCs in its BSS. (Default: 6) Note: The available channel settings are limited by local regulations. Broadcast SSID: Broadcasting the SSID on the wireless network for easy connection with client PCs. For security reason, disable SSID broadcast. (Default: Enable) 48 Advanced Setup Encryption If you are transmitting sensitive data across wireless channels, you should enable Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption. Encryption requires you to use the same set of encryption/decryption keys for the Router and all of your wireless clients. You can choose between standard 64-bit or the more robust 128-bit encryption. You may manually enter the keys or automatically generate encryption keys. To manually configure the keys, enter five hexadecimal pairs for each 64-bit key, or enter 13 pairs for the single 128-bit key. (A hexadecimal digit is a number or letter in the range 0-9 or A-F.) For automatic 64-bit security, enter a passphrase and click Generate. Four keys will be generated (as shown below). Choose a key from the drop-down list or accept the default key. Automatic 128-bit security generates a single key. 49 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router If you use encryption, configure the same keys used for the Router on each of your wireless clients. Note that Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) protects data transmitted between wireless nodes, but does not protect any transmissions over your wired network or over the Internet. 50 Advanced Setup NAT - Network Address Translation From this section you can configure the Address Mapping, Virtual Server, and Special Application features that provide control over the TCP/UDP port openings in the routers firewall. This section can be used to support several Internet based applications such as web, E-mail, FTP, and Telnet Address Mapping Allows one or more public IP addresses to be shared by multiple internal users. Enter the Public IP address you wish to share into the Global IP field. Enter a range of internal IPs that will share the global IP. 51 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router Virtual Server If you configure the Router as a virtual server, remote users accessing services such as web or FTP at your local site via public IP addresses can be automatically redirected to local servers configured with private IP addresses. In other words, depending on the requested service (TCP/UDP port number), the Router redirects the external service request to the appropriate server (located at another internal IP address). For example, if you set Type/Public Port to TCP/80 (HTTP or web) and the Private IP/Port to 192.168.2.2/80, then all HTTP requests from outside users will be transferred to 192.168.2.2 on port 80. Therefore, by just entering the IP Address provided by the ISP, Internet users can access the service they need at the local address to which you redirect them. The more common TCP service ports include:

HTTP: 80, FTP: 21, Telnet: 23, and POP3: 110 52 Advanced Setup Special Applications Some applications, such as Internet gaming, videoconferencing, Internet telephony and others, require multiple connections. These applications cannot work with Network Address Translation (NAT) enabled. If you need to run applications that require multiple connections, use the following screen to specify the additional public ports to be opened for each application. Specify the public port number normally associated with an application in the Trigger Port field. Set the protocol type to TCP or UDP, then enter the ports that the application requires. Popular applications requiring multiple ports are listed in the Popular Applications field. From the drop-down list, choose the application and then choose a row number to copy this data into. Note: Choosing a row that already contains data will overwrite the current settings. 53 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router Example:

Public Port Public Type Comment ID Trigger Port 6112 1 2 Trigger Type UDP 6112 28800 TCP 2300-2400, 47624 UDP TCP Battle.net MSN Game Zone For a full list of ports and the services that run on them, see www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers. Firewall The Router firewall can provide access control of connected client PCs, block common hacker attacks, including IP Spoofing, Land Attack, Ping of Death, IP with zero length, Smurf Attack, UDP port loopback, Snork Attack, TCP null scan, and TCP SYN flooding. The firewall does not significantly affect system performance, so we advise leaving it enabled to protect your network users. 54 Advanced Setup Access Control Using this option allows you to specify different privileges based on IP address for the client PCs. 55 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router Note: Click on Add PC and define the appropriate settings for client PC services (as shown in the following screen). 56 Advanced Setup MAC Filtering Table The MAC Filtering feature of the Router allows you to control access to your network for up to 32 clients based on the MAC

(Media Access Control) Address of the client machine. This ID is unique to each network adapter. If the MAC address is listed in the table, that client machine will have access to the network. 57 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router URL Blocking To configure the URL Blocking feature, use the table below to specify the web sites (www.somesite.com) and/or keywords you want to filter on your network. To complete this configuration, you will need to create or modify an access rule in Access Control on page 55. To modify an existing rule, click the Edit option next to the rule you want to modify. To create a new rule, click on the Add PC option. From the Access Control Add PC section check the option for WWW with URL Blocking in the Client PC Service table to filter out the web sites and keywords specified below. Use the above screen to block access to web sites or to web URLs containing the keyword specified in the table. 58 Advanced Setup Schedule Rule The Schedule Rule feature allows you to configure specific rules based on Time and Date. These rules can then be used to configure more specific Access Control. 59 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router Enables Schedule-based Internet access control. 1. Click Add Schedule Rule. 2. Define the settings for the schedule rule (as shown on the following screen). 3. Click OK and then click the APPLY button to save your settings. 60

Advanced Setup Intrusion Detection

SPI and Anti-DoS (Denial-of-Service) firewall protection

(Default: Disabled) The Intrusion Detection Feature limits access for incoming traffic at the WAN port. When the SPI

(Stateful Packet Inspection) feature is turned on, all incoming packets will be blocked except for those types marked with a check in the Stateful Packet Inspection section. Discard Ping from WAN (Default: Disabled) Prevents the router from responding to any PING request on the WAN port. E-mail Alert Configuration Enter your E-mail address. Specify your SMTP and POP3 servers, user name, and password. 61 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router DMZ (Demilitarized Zone) If you have a client PC that cannot run an Internet application properly from behind the firewall, then you can open the client up to unrestricted two-way Internet access. Enter the IP address of a DMZ host to this screen. Adding a client to the DMZ may expose your local network to a variety of security risks, so only use this option as a last resort. 62 DDNS (Dynamic DNS) Settings Advanced Setup Domain Name A series of alphanumeric strings separated by periods that maps to the address of a the Router network connection and identifies the owner of the address. Dynamic DNS provides users on the Internet with a method to tie their domain name to the router or server. DDNS allows your domain name to follow your IP address automatically by having your DNS records changed when your IP address changes. The section also has a Server Configuration section that automatically opens the port options checked in the Virtual Server section. Simply enter in the IP Address of your server, such as a web server, and then click on the port option HTTP Port 80 so users can access your server from the WAN connection (Internet). 63 Configuring the Wireless Barricade g Router This DNS feature is powered by TZO.com.
