1-1CHAPTER 1INTRODUCTIONCongratulations on your purchase of the Barricade g 54Mbps Wireless Broadband Router (SMCWBR14-G2). 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 BarricadeThe Barricade provides Internet access to multiple users by sharing a single-user account. This new technology provides many secure and cost-effective functions. It is simple to configure and can be up and running in minutes.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS1-2Features and Benefits• Local network connection via a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port• DHCP for dynamic IP configuration, and DNS for domain name mapping• Firewall with Stateful Packet Inspection, client privileges, intrusion detection, and NAT• 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, email, 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

INTRODUCTION1-3ApplicationsMany advanced networking features are provided by this Barricade:• Wired and Wireless LANThe Barricade provides connectivity to 10/100 Mbps devices, and wireless IEEE 802.11g compatible devices, making it easy to create a network in small offices or homes.• Internet AccessThis device supports Internet access through an ADSL connection. Since many ADSL providers use PPPoE or PPPoA to establish communications with end users, the Barricade includes built-in clients for these protocols, eliminating the need to install these services on your computer.• Shared IP AddressThe Barricade provides Internet access for up to 253 users via a single shared IP address. Using only one ISP account, multiple users on your network can browse the web at the same time.•Virtual ServerIf 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). This secures your network from direct attack by hackers, and provides more flexible management by allowing you to change internal IP addresses without affecting outside access to your network.

APPLICATIONS1-4• DMZ Host SupportAllows a networked computer to be fully exposed to the Internet. This function is used when NAT and firewall security prevent an Internet application from functioning correctly.• SecurityThe Barricade supports security features that deny Internet access to specified users, or filter all requests for specific services that the administrator does not want to serve. The Barricade’s firewall also blocks 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. WPA/WPA2, WEP, SSID, and MAC filtering provide security over the wireless network.• Virtual Private Network (VPN Pass-through)The Barricade supports three of the most commonly used VPN protocols – PPTP, L2TP, and IPSec. The VPN protocols supported by the Barricade are briefly described below.• Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol – Provides a secure tunnel for remote client access to a PPTP security gateway. PPTP includes provisions for call origination and flow control required by ISPs.• L2TP merges the best features of PPTP and L2F – Like PPTP, L2TP requires that the ISP’s routers support the protocol.• IP Security – Provides IP network-layer encryption. IPSec can support large encryption networks (such as the Internet) by using digital certificates for device authentication.

It also can be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network using the Fast Ethernet LAN port.Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type. Full-rate ADSL provides up to 8 Mbps downstream and 1 Mbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to 1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 kbps upstream. However, you should note that the actual rate provided by specific service providers may vary dramatically from these upper limits.Data passing between devices connected to your local area network can run at up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet port and 54 Mbps over the built-in wireless network adapter. The Barricade includes an LED display on the front panel for system power and port indications that simplifies installation and network troubleshooting.

ISP SETTINGS2-5ISP SettingsPlease collect the following information from your ISP before setting up the Barricade:• ISP account user name and password• Protocol, encapsulation and VPI/VCI circuit numbers•DNS server address• IP address, subnet mask and default gateway (for fixed IP users only)Connect the SystemDesktop InstallationThe Barricade can be positioned on any convenient flat surface in your office or home. No special wiring or cooling requirements are needed. You should, however, comply with the following guidelines:• Keep the Barricade away from any heating devices.• Do not place the Barricade 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 Barricade.

INSTALLATION2-6Wall-Mount InstallationThere are two wall-mount holes at the bottom of the Barricade. Before drilling two holes into the wall, make sure the holes are 112 mm apart. 1. Choose a suitable location for the Barricade.Note: It should be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the device.2. Measure the distance of the two wall-mount holes.3. Drill two holes into the wall.4. Insert a screw into each hole. Note: Leave 5 mm exposed of the screw head.5. Attach the Barricade to the wall with two wall-mount slots, and then slide the device down until the screws fit firmly into the slots of the device.112 mm

CONNECT THE SYSTEM2-7Connecting the Barricade to your LANThe four LAN ports on the Barricade auto-negotiate the connection speed to 10 Mbps Ethernet or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, as well as the transmission mode to half duplex or full duplex.Use RJ-45 cables 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. Instead, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.Notes: 1. Use 100-ohm shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 connectors for all Ethernet ports. Use Category 3, 4, or 5 for connections that operate at 10 Mbps, and Category 5 for connections that operate at 100 Mbps. 2. Make sure each twisted-pair cable length does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).Connect the Power AdapterPlug the power adapter into the power socket on the side panel of the Barricade, and the other end into a power outlet.Check the power indicator on the front panel is lit. If the power indicator is not lit, refer to “Troubleshooting” on page A-1.In case of a power input failure, the Barricade will automatically restart and begin to operate once the input power is restored.If the Barricade is properly configured, it will take about 30 seconds to establish a connection with the ADSL service provider after powering up.
