Installing the Router
Hardware Description
The Barricade Router can be connected to the Internet or to a
remote site using its RJ-45 WAN port or RS-232 serial port. It can
be connected directly to your PC or to a local area network using
any of the Fast Ethernet LAN ports. It can also function as a print
server.
Access speed to the Internet depends on your service type.
Full-rate ADSL can provide up to 8 Mbps downstream and
640 Mbps upstream. G.lite (or splitterless) ADSL provides up to
1.5 Mbps downstream and 512 Kbps upstream. Cable modems
can provide up to 36 Mbps downstream and 2 Mbps upstream.
ISDN can provide up to 128 Kbps when using two bearer
channels. PSTN analog connections can now run up to 56 Kbps.
However, you should note that the actual rate provided by
specific service providers may vary dramatically from these
upper limits.
Although access speed to the Internet is determined by the
modem type connected to your Barricade Router, data passing
between devices connected to your local area network can run
up to 100 Mbps over the Fast Ethernet ports.
The Barricade Router includes an LED display on the front panel
for system power and port indications that simplifies installation
and network troubleshooting. It also provides 4 RJ-45 LAN ports
on the front panel, as well as one RJ-45 WAN port, one RS-232
serial port and one parallel printer port on the rear
panel.Full-duplex communications allow data to be sent and
received simultaneously, doubling the effective throughput.

Hardware Description
•4 RJ-45 ports for connection to a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX
Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN). These ports can
auto-negotiate the operating speed to 10/100 Mbps, the mode
to half/full duplex, and the pin signals to MDI/MDI-X
(i.e., allowing these ports to be connected to any network
device with straight-through cable). These ports can be
connected directly to a PC or to a server equipped with an
Ethernet network interface card, or to a networking device
such as an Ethernet hub or switch.
•One RJ-45 port for connection to a DSL or cable modem
(WAN). This port also auto-negotiates operating speed to
10/100 Mbps, the mode to half/full duplex, and the pin signals
to MDI/MDI-X.
•One RS-232 serial port to connect to an ISDN Terminal
Adapter (TA) or to a PSTN analog modem.
•One parallel printer port that can be connected to a printer.
This printer can then be shared by any LAN users.

Service Provider (ISP) using a DSL modem, cable modem,
ISDN TA, or PSTN analog modem. You may also have access
over the telephone system to an analog modem at another
site.
•A PC using a fixed IP address or dynamic IP address
assigned via DHCP, as well as a Gateway server address and
DNS server address from your service provider.
•A computer equipped with a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or
10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet card, or a USB-to-Ethernet
converter.

Connect the System
•TCP/IP network protocol installed on each PC that needs to
access the Internet.
•A Java-enabled Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet
Explorer 5.0 or above, or Netscape Communicator 4.0 or
above installed on one PC at your site for configuring the
Barricade Router.)
Connect the System
The Barricade Router can be positioned at any convenient
location in your office or home. No special wiring or cooling
requirements are needed. You should, however comply with the
following guidelines:
•Keep the Barricade Router away from any heating devices.

environment.
You should also remember to turn off the power, remove the
power cord from the outlet, and keep your hands dry when you
install the Barricade Router.
Basic Installation Procedure
1. Connect the LAN: You can connect the Barricade Router to
your PC, or to a hub or switch. Run Ethernet cable from one
of the LAN ports on the front of the Barricade Router to your
computer’s network adapter or to another network device.
2. Connect the WAN: Prepare an Ethernet cable for connecting
the Barricade Router to a cable/DSL modem or Ethernet
router. Prepare a serial cable for connecting the Barricade
Router to an ISDN TA or PSTN modem.
