Cable/DSL ProSafe Wireless-Ready Firewall

MODEL FR114W

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a NETGEAR FR114W Cable/DSL ProSafe Wireless-Ready Firewall

with Print Server. A firewall is a special type of router that incorporates features for network

security. With this firewall you can have secure Internet access through a high-speed DSL or cable

modem and share the single modem with several computers. Provides the ability to install a

wireless notebook card for wireless networking functionality.

This installation guide shows you how to connect the firewall and configure it and your

computers for secure Internet access. Setup is easy—follow the instructions in this guide and

your system will be up and running quickly.

If you have problems, there is a troubleshooting section on page 13 to help you—or you can

get more detailed troubleshooting information from the Reference Manual on the CD, online

from www.NETGEAR.com or by phone.

Installation Overview

Estimated time: 15 to 30 minutes

1. Gather the configuration information you have for your working DSL or cable modem

connection to the Internet.

2. Install the firewall between the DSL or cable modem and one computer.

Gather Configuration Information for

Your Working Connection to the Internet

Before installing the FR114W firewall, you

should have an external DSL or cable

modem with an Ethernet port set up and

working with one computer. You’ll be

installing the firewall between the modem

and the computer.

For each computer that you want to

connect to the firewall, you must have

• An available RJ-45 Ethernet port (or

adapter) — either built-in or from a

network interface card (NIC) installed

in the computer

an 802.11b-compliant wireless adapter.

• TCP/IP installed.

• If your computer is a Windows®

computer, it must have the Client for Microsoft®Networks software installed.

Note: Please see the Reference Manual on the CD if you need help installing

TCP/IP software or the Client for Microsoft Networks software on any Windows

computer that hasn’t been networked previously.

• A Category 5 (Cat 5) Ethernet patch cable

Note: There is one cable in the box with the firewall.

DSL modem

Note: If you have a cable

modem, you will have a cable

connection between the

modem and your cable outlet.

Connection information

Later in the setup process you’ll need to configure the firewall to work with your network. A

Setup Wizard is available to help you through this procedure. You can configure the firewall

yourself using information that you can get from your computer or your ISP about your

current Internet connection.

The next page includes blanks for you to fill in and refer to later. To get the needed

information from your computer:

• (Windows 98/Me) Open the Network control panel, select the TCP/IP entry, and

click Properties.

• (Windows 2000/XP) Open Local Area Network Connection and click Properties.

• (Macintosh®) Open the TCP/IP (or Network) control panel.

Your ISP should have provided you with a summary sheet of all the information needed to connect

your computer to the Internet. If you cannot locate the information, you’ll have to contact your ISP.

An ISP Guide is included with your firewall’s documentation, either as a printed card or on the

Resource CD. The ISP Guide contains specific configuration guidelines for connecting to

many popular ISPs.

Host and Domain Names

Some ISPs use a specific host or domain name—like jsmith or earthlink.net. If you haven’t

been given specific information about host or domain names then use the following examples

as a guide:

• If your main e-mail account with your ISP is aaa@yyy.com, then use aaa as your host

name. (Your ISP might call this your account name, user name, or system name.)

• If your ISP’s mail server is mail.xxx.yyy.com, then use xxx.yyy.com as the domain name.

Host name:_____________________________________

Domain name: __________________________________

If your ISP requires a login name and password (possibly because you have a PPPoE account),

fill in the following:

(may be your full e-mail address)

Password:______________________________________

Note: The login name could be called a user name or account name by your ISP.

The login name is case sensitive. You must type it exactly as given by your ISP. For

example, c_jones is a different login name than C_Jones or cjones.

Fixed (or static) IP address

If you have a static IP address through your ISP, fill in the following information:

IP address: _____._____._____._____

Subnet mask: _____._____._____._____

Gateway IP address:_____._____._____._____

DNS server address information

If you were given specific Domain Name System (DNS) server addresses, fill in the following:

DNS Server IP address(es): _____._____._____._____

_____._____._____._____

Install the Firewall

After unpacking the box and locating the

configuration information, you’re ready to install

the firewall. If you will be upgrading your

FR114W for wireless operation, perform the steps

in the following section. Otherwise skip to

“Connecting the Firewall to your network” below.

Installing a Wireless Card in

the FR114W

To upgrade the FR114W for wireless operation,

you must purchase and install a NETGEAR

802.11b Wireless PC Card. The firewall will

function normally without a wireless adapter card,

but will not have wireless connectivity. To install

the 802.11b Wireless PC Card in your FR114W,

follow these steps:

1. Locate the wireless adapter card slot on the rear panel of the FR114W.

2. Remove the rubber dust cover from the slot.

3. With the FR114W’s power off, slide the Wireless PC card into the slot with the card’s

front label and LED facing up.

4. Be sure that the Wireless PC card is securely seated into the internal connector.

The blue plastic end cap of the Wireless PC card should be outside of the FR114W’s case.

Note: You must use a NETGEAR wireless PC card as not all manufacturer’s PC

cards are compatible.

Connecting the Firewall to your Network

Note: You do not have to power down any equipment to do this, but if you need to

move your computers (perhaps to get to ports in the back), you may want to shut

down the computers before moving them around.

1. Locate the Ethernet cable currently going from the DSL or cable modem to the computer

that you use to access the Internet.

Note: You must use this cable to connect the DSL or cable modem to your firewall

since this may be a special cable even though it looks like other LAN cables.

2. Remove this cable from the computer and insert that end into the Internet port on the

rear panel of the firewall.

3. Use the Ethernet patch cable that came with the firewall to connect the computer to one

of the four numbered local Ethernet ports on the rear panel of the firewall.

4. Connect the power adapter’s cord into the back of the firewall and then plug the adapter

into a power source (such as a wall socket or power strip).

Note: If you want to connect other computers to the firewall, don’t connect them

now. Do that after you know that the modem/firewall setup works with one

computer.

Check the setup

• The Test light turns on for a few seconds and then goes off.

Note: If the Test light remains on for more than one minute, go to Troubleshooting

on page 13.

• The Power and Internet Link lights should be lit.

• The WLAN light should be lit.

• If your computer is on, the Local Link light should be on for the port number that your

computer is connected to.

Note: If the port connection is a 100 Mbps connection, the 100 light should be on.

If either the Power, Internet Link, or Local port Link light isn’t lit, go to Troubleshooting on

page 13.

Configure the Computer to Work with the

Firewall and Restart the Network

Next, make sure that the computer can interact with the firewall. To do this, configure the

TCP/IP settings on the computer and then restart the network. How you do this depends on

your computer.

6. Go to Restarting the Network.

Linux®or UNIX®Operating System

If you’re installing the firewall with a Linux-based or UNIX-based computer see your system

documentation for TCP/IP and networking setup information.

Restarting the Network

Once you’ve set up your computer to work with the firewall, you must reset the network for

the devices to be able to communicate correctly.

1. Turn off the DSL or cable modem, wait 15 seconds, and then turn it on again.

Note: If the modem doesn’t have an on/off switch, either pull the modem’s power

adapter out of the wall socket or power down the power strip.

2. If the firewall was powered down, power it up again and wait until the Test light turns off.

3. Restart the computer that is connected to the firewall.

Note: You may also configure the firewall from a wireless PC. In that case, set the

PC’s SSID to the firewall’s default SSID: Wireless and be sure to Disable WEP encryption. 9
