Figure 3. Making the WLAN Connections

Attach the Wireless Barricade Router to the Internet

If Internet services are provided through an xDSL or cable
modem, use unshielded or shielded twisted-pair Ethernet cable
(Category 3 or greater) with RJ-45 plugs to connect the
broadband modem directly to the WAN port on the Wireless
Barricade.

Note:

When connecting to the WAN port, use 100-ohm
Category 3, 4, or 5 shielded or unshielded twisted-pair
cable with RJ-45 connectors at both ends for all
connections.

Connecting the Power Adapter

Plug the power adapter into the power socket on the Wireless
Barricade, and the other end into a power outlet. Check the
indicator marked “PWR” on the front panel to be sure it is on. If
the power indicator does not light, refer to “Troubleshooting” on
page 67.
