Setting Up TCP/IP

Verifying Your TCP/IP Connection
After installing the TCP/IP communication protocols and
configuring an IP address in the same network as the
Barricade™ Router, use the Ping command to check if your
computer has successfully connected to the Barricade™ Router.
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
Barricade™ Router 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
Barricade™ Router and the computer?
2. The LAN LED on the Barricade™ Router and the Link LED of
the network card on your computer must be on.
3. Is TCP/IP properly configured on your computer?
If the IP address of the Barricade™ Router is 192.168.2.1,
the IP address of your PC must be from 192.168.2.2 -
192.168.2.254 and the default gateway must be 192.168.2.1.
If you can successfully Ping the Barricade™ Router you are now
ready to connect to the Internet.
