Connecting the Barricade to your LAN

The 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 Adapter

Plug 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 i

ndicator 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.
