Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a NETGEAR RP614 Cable/DSL Web Safe Router Gateway. With

this router you can have secure Internet access through a high-speed DSL or cable modem and

share the single modem with several computers.

This installation guide shows you how to connect the router 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 pages 11 and 12 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. There’s a short glossary available on page 13 if

you have questions about terminology. A more extensive glossary appears in the Reference

Manual.

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 router between the DSL or cable modem and one computer.

3. Configure that computer to work with the router and restart the computer and modem.

4. Configure the router and go online to test the connection.

5. Connect other computers, configure them and restart each. (optional)

6. Configure for content filtering or port forwarding. (optional)

On the RP614 Resource CD, you’ll find the RP614 Installation Assistant, which supplements the

instructions in this installation guide by animating the step-by-step procedures given here.

For more detailed information about installation, troubleshooting and configuration

procedures, see the Reference Manual on the CD. 1

Gather Configuration Information for

Your Working Connection to the Internet

Before installing the RP614 router, 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

router between the modem and the computer.

For each computer that you want to connect to the

router, 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.

Note: If you have a built-in modem or a modem card, the telephone jack for the

modem looks very similar to an RJ-45 Ethernet port, but the RJ-45 port is larger.

•TCP/IP networking installed.

•Windows®computers: Client for Microsoft®Networks software installed.

Note: TCP/IP and Client for Microsoft Networks is installed on most Windows

computers. If you can view Web sites with a browser, you are ready to go. Please

see the Reference Manual on the CD if you need help installing either on a

Windows computer.

•A Category 5 (Cat 5) Ethernet patch cable

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

Connection information

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

Setup Wizard is available to help you through this procedure. Alternatively, you can configure

the router 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 a 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. 3

Host and Domain Names

Some ISPs use a specific host or domain name—like CCA7324-A or home. 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, user, host, computer or system name.)

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

Account name:

Domain name:

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

fill in the following:

Password:

Service name: (if required by your ISP)

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:

Internet 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):

...

Note: For example, a

valid IP address could

be 169.254.141.148.

...

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

computer to the Internet. Additionally, the NETGEAR Router ISP Guide gives the requirements for many

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

Install the Router

After unpacking the box and locating the

configuration information, you’re ready to install the

router.

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 router

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 router. (See the label on the bottom of the router to locate the Internet port.)

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

the four numbered Ethernet ports on the router.

4. Connect the power adapter’s cord into the back of the router 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 router, don’t connect them

now. Do that after you know that the modem/router 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 stays on or blinks, go to Troubleshooting on page 11.

•The Power and Internet lights should be lit.

•The number of the port (if a computer is connected and

powered up) should be lit and may blink to show network

activity.

Note: If the connection is a 100 Mbps connection, the number is green. If it is a

10 Mbps connection, the number is yellow. If either the Power, Internet, or port

number light isn’t lit, go to Troubleshooting on page 11. 5
