How to Use this Guide

In addition to the documentation contained in the accompanying Firmware User’s Guide, this guide is designed to get you up and running and connected to your local area network and the Internet. It is intended to be viewed on-line, using the powerful features of the Adobe Acrobat Reader. The information display has been deliberately designed to present the maximum information in the minimum space on your screen. You can keep this document open while you perform any of the procedures described, and find useful information about the procedure you are performing.

You can also print out all of the manual, or individual sections, if you prefer to work from hard copy rather than on-line documentation. The pages are formatted to print on standard 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper. We recommend that you print on 3-hole punched paper, so that you can put the pages in a binder for future reference.

This guide is organized into chapters describing the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT ADSL Wireless Router’s advanced features. You may want to read each chapter’s introductory section to familiarize yourself with the various features available.

Use the guide’s table of contents and index to locate informational topics.

A phone jack to which your ADSL provider is providing ADSL service. (Your phones and ADSL service generally use the same phone line.)

Important Safety Instructions

POWER SUPPLY INSTALLATION

Connect the power supply cord to the power jack on the Cayman Gateway. Plug the power supply into an appropriate electrical outlet.

CAUTION: Depending on the power supply provided with the product, either the direct plug-in power supply blades, power supply cord plug or the appliance coupler serves as the main power disconnect. It is important that the direct plug-in power supply, socket-outlet or appliance coupler be located so it is readily accessible.

CAUTION (North America Only): For use only with a CSA Certified or UL Listed Limited Power Source or Class 2 power supply, rated 12Vdc, 1.5A.

CAUTION (Europe Only): For use only with a GS approved Limited Power Source, rated 12Vdc, 1.5A. (Sweden) Apparaten skall anslutas till jordat uttag när den ansluts till ett nätverk

(Norway) Apparatet må kun tilkoples jordet stikkontakt.

TELECOMMUNICATION INSTALLATION CAUTIONS

When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:

1.Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bathtub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.

2.Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electrical shock from lightning.

3.Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

Ethernet ports

Four RJ-45 10/100Base-T Ethernet jacks. You can use one of these to configure the

 

Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT. You can either connect your computer directly to an

 

Ethernet port using the supplied Category 5 Ethernet cable, or connect both your

 

computer and the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT to an existing LAN environment. The

 

Ethernet ports are auto-sensing, eliminating the need for a crossover cable.

1.For a direct computer to router Ethernet connection, use the standard Ethernet cable included with your router.

2.Use the supplied RJ-11 telephone cable to connect the router to your DSL wall outlet.

3.Connect the supplied power brick to a power outlet and the connector end to the router.

4.Each computer using the wireless network requires its own Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ 802.11b adapter to be installed in the computer.

This may be purchased from any Wi-Fi CERTIFIED™ manufacturer for your particular computer. See “Connecting to Your Local Area Network” on page 3-1.

You should now have: the power adapter plugged in; the Ethernet cable connected between the router and your computer; and the telephone cable connected to its appropriate wall jack.

Connecting to Your Local Area Network 3-1

Chapter 3

Connecting to Your Local Area Network

This chapter describes how to physically connect the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT to your local area network (LAN). Before you proceed, make sure the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT is properly configured. You can customize the router’s configuration for your particular LAN requirements using console-based management (see “Telnet-Based Management” on page 5-1).

This section covers the following topics:

“Readying Computers on Your Local Network” on page 3-1

“Connecting to an Ethernet Network” on page 3-2

Readying Computers on Your Local Network

PC and Macintosh computers must have certain components installed before they can communicate through the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT. The following illustration shows the minimal requirements for a typical PC or Macintosh computer.

Application software

TCP/IP stack

Ethernet Driver

Your PC

or Macintosh computer

To the Netopia

Application software: This is the software you use to send e-mail, browse the World Wide Web, read newsgroups, etc. These applications may require some configuration. Examples include the Eudora e-mail client and the Web browsers Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator.

TCP/IP stack: This is the software that lets your PC or Macintosh computer communicate using Internet protocols. TCP/IP stacks must be configured with some of the same information you used to configure the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT. There are a number of TCP/IP stacks available for PC computers. Windows 95 includes a built-in TCP/IP stack. Macintosh computers use either MacTCP or Open Transport. See “Configuring TCP/IP on Windows-based Computers” on page 4-5. Macintosh computers use either MacTCP or Open Transport. See “Configuring TCP/IP on Macintosh Computers” on page 4-7.

3-2 Getting Started Guide

Ethernet: Ethernet hardware and software drivers enable your PC or Macintosh computer to communicate on the LAN.

Once the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT is properly configured and connected to your LAN, PC and Macintosh computers that have their required components in place will be able to connect to the Internet or other remote IP networks.

Connecting to an Ethernet Network

You can connect a standard 10/100Base-T Ethernet network to the Netopia 3347W/3357W-ENT using any of its Ethernet ports.
