THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.
THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Definitions of Service Request Severity
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.

Warning
Warning
Warning
Warning
Warning
Read the installation instructions before you connect the system to its power source.
No operator serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.
This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use.
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors).
Before working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry (including rings, necklaces, and watches). Metal objects will heat up when connected to power and ground and can cause serious burns or weld the metal object to the terminals.
2-2
Warning
The ports labeled "10BaseT", 100BaseTX", and "10/100" are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Avoid connecting these circuits to telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits.

Chapter 2 Installation
Preparing for Installation
Warning
Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a transfer of electrostatic charge between bodies of different electrostatic potentials, such as an operator and a piece of electrical equipment. It occurs when electronic components are improperly handled, and it can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. Electrostatic discharge is more likely to occur in the presence of synthetic fibers and dry atmosphere.
Always use the following ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components:
Step 1 Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap that you provide, ensuring that it makes good
skin contact.

The following conditions must be met when you mount the router:
Because you will use the LEDs as status and problem indicators, the front
panel must face upward and be easily visible.
The router must be mounted low enough for you to see the LEDs in case you
need to troubleshoot a problem.
The power supply must rest on a horizontal surface such as the floor or a
table. If the power supply is not supported, it might place strain on the power supply cable and cause it to disconnect from the connector on the router back panel.
To mount the router, follow the steps in Figure 2-8. The last page of this manual provides a template for measuring the distance between the screws.

Connecting to a Website

Connecting to a Website
The router has been configured to work for the most common type of installation. Log onto a PC connected to the router, open a web browser, and connect to a website. If you connected to a website, you have completed setup and can continue to use the router.
If you cannot display a website, make sure that the broadband modem or Ethernet switch that the router is connected to is operating, and try again. If you still cannot connect to a website, you must follow the steps in “What to Do If You Cannot
Connect to a Website.”

What to Do If You Cannot Connect to a Website

If you cannot connect to the Internet using the factory configuration, or if you have loaded new Cisco IOS software on the router since you installed it, you can configure the router, using the Cisco Router Web Setup (CRWS) software. The CRWS software is already loaded on the router, and is run from a PC connected to the router.
Starting the CRWS Software
Follow these steps to start the CRWS software:
Step 1 Start, or restart, a PC connected to one of the router’s Ethernet ports (1, 2, 3, or
4).
Step 2 Open a web browser. Make sure that the browser is set to work in online mode.
In Internet Explorer, click the File menu, and verify that the “work offline”
option is unchecked.
In Netscape, the default selection in the File menu is set to work online.
Step 3 Type in the following universal resource locator (URL):

What to Do If You Cannot Connect to a Website
Tip If the CRWS home page does not appear when you enter the URL
http://10.10.10.1, test the connection between the PC and the router by doing the following:
1. Check that the OK LED on the router is on, and check the cable connection
between the router and the PC. Be sure that the TO HUB/TO PC button is in the TO PC position.
2. If the CRWS home page still does not appear, verify that the web browser’s
“work offline” option is disabled.
3. If the web page still does not appear, verify that the PC is automatically
configured to receive an IP address. Follow the instructions in the Cisco Router Web Setup User Guide, which is available on the Cisco 800 and SOHO Series Product Documentation CD.
Step 4 Click the Router Setup link in the Cisco Router Web Setup home page, and
follow the instructions that appear in the page that is displayed.
Step 5 When you complete setup using CRWS, connect to another website, using the
connected PC. If you successfully connect to the website, then setup is complete, and you can continue using the router.
