The Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready Router’s Front Panel LEDs

Diag Red. The Diag LED illuminates when the Router goes

through its self-diagnosis mode during boot-up and restart. It

will turn off upon successful completion of the diagnosis. If

this LED stays on for an abnormally long period of time,

refer to the Troubleshooting section. During firmware

upgrades, this will also flash.

Power Green. The Power LED illuminates when the Router is pow-

ered on.

Full/Col Green. The Full/Col LED also serves two purposes. If this

LED is continuously illuminated, the connection made

through the corresponding port is successfully running in

Full Duplex mode. If the LED is flickering, the connection is

experiencing collisions. Infrequent collisions are normal. If

this LED is flickering too often, there may be a problem with

your connection. Check the Troubleshooting section if you

think there is a problem.

Link/Act Green. The Link/Act LED serves two purposes. If the LED

is continuously illuminated, the Router is successfully con-

nected to a device through the corresponding port (1, 2, 3 or

4). If the LED is flickering, the Router is actively sending or

receiving data over that port.

100 Orange. The 100 LED illuminates when a successful

100Mbps connection is made through the corresponding

port.

Chapter 3: Connecting the

Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready

Router to Your Network

Overview

Unlike a simple hub or switch, the setup of the Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready

Router consists of more than simply plugging everything together. Because the

Router acts as a DHCP server, you will have to set some values within the

Router, and also configure your networked PCs to accept the IP Addresses the

Router chooses to assign them.

You will need the following values from your ISP in order to install the

Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready Router:

• PPPoE with username and password (for some DSL users)

• Your broadband-configured PC’s static Internet IP Address (if applicable)

• Your broadband-configured PC’s Computer Name and Workgroup Name

• Your Subnet Mask

• Your Default Gateway

• Your Primary DNS IP address

If your broadband access installer did not leave you this information, call your

ISP and they will be able to supply you with it.

About Static & Dynamic IP Addresses

Static IP Addresses A static IP address is an IP address permanently assigned

to a computer in a TCP/IP network. Static IP addresses are usually assigned to

networked devices that are consistently accessed by multiple users, such as

server PCs, or a print server. If you are using your Router to share your cable

or DSL Internet connection, contact your ISP to see if they have assigned your

home a static IP address. You will need that address during your Router’s con-

figuration.

About Static & Dynamic IP Addresses

EtherFast® Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready Router with 4-Port Switch

WLAN Green. The WLAN LED illuminates when a wireless net-

work is active.

WAN Green. The WAN LED illuminates when a successful con-

nection is made between the Router and your Broadband

device or network. When blinking, the Router is sending or

receiving data over the broadband port.

Instant BroadbandTM Series

6. To use the Reset button: While holding down the Reset button, unplug the

power adapter from the Router. Wait three seconds while continuing to hold

down the Reset button. Then plug the power adapter back into the Router.

The Diag LED will flash twice. During the second flash, release the Reset

button. This will restore all the defaults.

7. Power on your PC.

The Hardware Installation is complete. Continue to the next page to con-

figure your PCs and Router.

NNoottee::Some ISPs—most notably some cable providers—configure

their networks so that you do not have to enter a full Internet

address into your web browser or e-mail application to reach your

home page or receive your e-mail. If your Internet home page

address is something very simple, such as “www”, rather than

“www.linksys.com”, or your e-mail server’s address is something similar to “e-

mail” or “pop3”, rather than “pop.mail.linksys.com”, you won’t be able to prop-

erly configure your Router until you determine the actual Internet addresses of

your Web and e-mail connections.

You mmuussttobtain this information prior to connecting the Router to your network.

You can obtain this information by contacting your ISP, or you can turn to the

section of the Appendix on HHoowwttooOObbttaaiinnYYoouurrIISSPP’’ssEE-mmaaiill&&WWeebbAAddddrreesssseess..

EtherFast® Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready Router with 4-Port Switch

Dynamic IP Addresses A dynamic IP address is an IP address that is automati-

cally assigned to a client station (computer, printer, etc.) in a TCP/IP network.

Dynamic IP addresses are typically assigned by a DHCP server, which can be

a computer on the network or another piece of hardware, such as the Router. A

dynamic IP address might change every time your computer connects to the

network.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) DHCP is software that automati-

cally assigns IP addresses to client stations logging on to a TCP/IP network.

DHCP eliminates having to manually assign permanent IP addresses to every

device on your network. DHCP software typically runs in servers and is also

found in network devices such as Routers.

Connecting Your Hardware Together and Booting Up

Once you are sure that you have the above values on hand, you can begin the

installation and setup of your Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready Router.

1. Power everything down, including your PCs, your Cable or DSL modem and

the Router.

2. Connect a Network cable from one of your PCs’ Ethernet ports to one of the

LAN Ports on the back of the Router. Do the same with all the PCs you wish

to connect to the Router.

3. Connect the network cable from your Cable or DSL modem to the WAN port

on the back of the Router.

4. Connect the power-adapter cable to the Power port on the back of the Router,

then plug the other end into a power outlet.

• The Power LED will illuminate green as soon as the power adapter is

connected.

• The Diag LED will illuminate red for a few seconds while the Router

goes through its internal diagnostic test. The LED will turn off when the

self-test is complete.

5. Power on the Cable or DSL modem. Verify that the power is on by checking

the WAN LED on the front of the Router. The Link LED will illuminate if

the power is on and the modem is ready.

Instant BroadbandTM Series

4. Click the Properties button, and then choose the IP Address tab. Select

Obtain an IP address automatically. (See Figure 3-2.) Click on the

Gateway tab and make sure that all fields there are empty. Click OK.

5.The Network Properties window will reappear. Click OK. All client settings

are complete. Windows may ask for original Windows installation files,

which can be found on your Windows CD-ROM (i.e.: D:\win98, D:\win95,

D:\ win9x - where “D” is the letter of your CD-ROM drive) or possibly on

your hard drive (c:\windows\options\cabs.)

6. Windows will ask you to restart your PC. Click Yes.

Repeat steps 1-6 for each PC on your network.When all PCs are config-

ured, continue on to set up the Router using the Router’s Web-based

Utility.

Figure 3-2

EtherFast® Cable/DSL Wireless-Ready Router with 4-Port Switch

Now that your Router is physically installed, you will have to configure your

PCs to accept the IP addresses that your Router will provide. If using the

default Windows TCP/IP network configuration, no changes are required; just

restart your PC so it will obtain an IP address from the Cable/DSL Wireless-

Ready Router.

1. Click the Start button, select Settings, then Control Panel.

2. Double-click the Network icon.

3. In the Configuration window, select the TCP/IP protocol line that has been

associated with your network card/adapter. (See Figure 3-1.)

These instructions apply only to Windows 95, 98 and Millennium

machines. For TCP/IP setup under Windows NT, Windows 2000,

or Windows XP, please refer to your Microsoft Windows docu-

mentation.

instructions. (Refer to Chapter 6 for more information.)

A. Access the web utility by opening your web browser and typing

http://192.168.1.1 in the browser’s Address box. (This number is the

default IP address of your Router.) Press Enter. (See Figure 4-2.)

B. After entering the address into the web browser, a password request

page will pop up. (See Figure 4-3.) Leave the User Name field empty,

but type admin into the Password field.

C. The basic Setup screen is the first screen you will see when you access the

utility, but is the only one you need to set up your Wireless PC Card.

(See Figure 4-4.) If you have already installed and set up your router, you

have already seen this screen and have already properly configured all of

the screen’s values. More detailed explanations and instructions can be

found by clicking the page’s Help button. To clear any values you’ve

entered, click Cancel and re-enter the information. To apply any set-

tings that you have changed, click the Apply button. Once all settings

are correct, click Continue.
