SOHO 6 Wireless Installation Procedure

Windows XP with Internet Explorer 5.x & 6.0

Before you Begin

Before you install the SOHO 6 Wireless, you must have:

• A computer with a 10/100BaseT Ethernet card installed and a Web browser, such as Internet

Explorer.

• A functional Internet connection–this connection must be a cable or DSL modem with a

10/100BaseT port, an ISDN router, or a direct LAN connection. If the Internet connection is not

functional, call your ISP.

• Two straight-through Ethernet network cables with RJ45 connectors. Crossover cables, which are

often red or orange in color, are not satisfactory. The SOHO 6 Wireless package includes one cable–

a second cable may have been supplied with your modem, if not, you will need to purchase a second

cable. Make sure that the cables are of sufficient length to connect the modem or router to the

SOHO 6 Wireless and the SOHO 6 Wireless to your computer.

• The method of network address assignment used by your ISP. The possible methods are static

addressing, DHCP, or PPPoE–call your ISP to determine this, if necessary.

• The two antennae supplied with the SOHO 6 Wireless attached to the appliance.

NOTE

The SOHO 6 Wireless

must

be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters from all

persons and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

• The SOHO 6 Wireless serial number–found on the bottom of the appliance.

SOHO 6 Wireless Installation Procedures: Windows XP with Internet Explorer 5.x & 6.0 6

Configure the External Network of the SOHO 6 Wireless

The DHCP Client

The default configuration of the SOHO 6 Wireless is set to receive the external IP address information

using DHCP. If your ISP supports this method, the SOHO 6 Wireless receives the information when it

reboots and connects to the Internet. The SOHO 6 Wireless does not require any additional

configuration.

Your installation is now complete and you should be able to use your Internet connection. Verify this by

accessing the Internet.

the SOHO 6 Wireless to keep the PPPoE connection open during a period of frequent packet loss. If the flow of traffic

stops, the SOHO 6 Wireless reboots.This provides for a more consistent Internet connection but will be seen as

continuous traffic by the ISP and regulated as such.

4ClickSubmit.

Your installation is now complete, and you should be able to use your Internet connection. Verify this by

accessing the Internet.

Troubleshooting the Connection

You can monitor the connection traffic through the SOHO 6 Wireless using the Event Log.

for instruction on installing and configuring the device.

Install additional computers

Although the SOHO 6 Wireless has only four, Ethernet ports (labeled 0-3), you can connect more than

four appliances. Use one or more network hubs to make more connections.

The base model SOHO 6 Wireless includes a ten-seat license. This license allows a maximum of ten

appliances on the trusted network to connect to the Internet at the same time. There can be more than

ten appliances on the trusted network, but the SOHO 6 Wireless will only allow ten Internet

connections. A seat is in use when an appliance connects to the Internet and is free when the connection

is broken. License upgrades are available from the WatchGuard Web site:

http://www.watchguard.com/sales/buyonline.asp

To connect more than four appliances to the SOHO 6 Wireless, these items are necessary:

• An Ethernet hub

• A straight-through Ethernet cable, with RJ-45 connectors for each computer

• A straight-through Ethernet cable to connect each hub to the SOHO 6 Wireless
