Verifying Your TCP/IP Connection
After installing the TCP/IP communication protocols and
configuring an IP address in the same network as the Wireless
Barricade, use the ping command to check if your computer has
successfully connected to the Wireless Barricade. The following
example shows how the ping procedure can be executed in an
MS-DOS window. First, execute the ping command:
ping 192.168.2.1
If a message similar to the following appears:
Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 192.168.2.1: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64
a communication link between your computer and the Wireless
Barricade has been successfully established.
If you get the following message,
Pinging 192.168.2.1 with 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
there may be something wrong in your installation procedure.
Check the following items in sequence:
1. Is the Ethernet cable correctly connected between the
Wireless Barricade and the computer?
The LAN LED on the Wireless Barricade and the Link LED of
the network card on your computer must be on.
2. Is TCP/IP properly configured on your computer?
If the IP address of the Wireless Barricade is 192.168.2.1, the
IP address of your PC must be from 192.168.2.2-254 and the
default gateway must be 192.168.2.1.
If you can successfully ping the Wireless Barricade you are
now ready to connect to the Internet!
