Appendix C: Installation Guide For Specific ISP

The WAN types provided by Barricade will cover almost all types of ISP services. Some ISPs, however, have proprietary authentication methods. For example, MediaOne binds your connection with a registered MAC address; @Home assigns you a hostname and requires you to set up the domain name.

This appendix describes the procedure t o configure your Barricade to work with these types of ISPs.

C.1 @Home

1.Log in as system administrator and click "Primary Setup."

2.Configure the WAN type as "Dynamic IP Address."

3.In the "Host Name" field, you must key in the host name specified by your ISP. Say, "C123456-A."

4.Save the setting for "Primary Setup."

5.Please click "DHCP Server" setting, and configure the domain name as the one specified by your ISP. Say, "xxx.yyy.home.com".

6.Save the setting and reboot the Barricade.

7.After the Barricade is working, please run WINIPCFG in your Windows platform and release and renew the IP address manually. This step ensures that your PC obtains the correct TCP/IP setting from the newly configured Barricade.

8.Close all browsers and restart the browser.
