RESET Button—The RESET button has two functions:

If the Cisco RV220W is having problems connecting to the Internet, press the RESET button for at least 3 but no more than 10 seconds with a paper clip or a pencil tip. This is similar to pressing the reset button on your PC to reboot it.

If you are experiencing extreme problems with the Cisco RV220W and have tried all other troubleshooting measures, press and hold in the RESET button for more than 10 seconds. This reboots the unit and restores the factory defaults. Changes you have made to the Cisco RV220W settings are lost.

WAN Port—The WAN port is connected to your Internet device, such as a cable or DSL modem.

LAN Ports (1-4)—These ports provide a LAN connection to network devices, such as PCs, print servers, or switches.

Power Port—The power port is where you connect the provided power adapter.

Power Switch—Press this button up (toward the line) to turn the firewall on. Press this button down (toward the circle) to turn the firewall off.

4 Connecting the Equipment

STEP 1 You should already have an Ethernet cable connecting your PC to your current cable or DSL modem. Unplug one end of the cable from your PC and plug it into the port marked “WAN” on the unit.

STEP 2 Connect one end of a different Ethernet cable to one of the LAN (Ethernet) ports on the back of the unit. (In this example, the LAN 2 port is used.) Connect the other end to an Ethernet port on the PC that you will use to run the web-based Device Manager.

STEP 3 Power on the cable or DSL modem and wait until the connection is active.

STEP 4 Connect the power adapter to the Cisco RV220W POWER port.

CAUTION Use only the power adapter that is supplied with the unit. Using a different power adapter could damage the unit.

STEP 5 Plug the other end of the adapter into an electrical outlet. You may need to use a specific plug (supplied) for your country.

STEP 6 On the Cisco RV220W, push the power button to the on position to turn on the firewall. The POWER light on the front panel is green when the power adapter is connected properly and the unit is turned on.

5 Getting Started with the Configuration

NOTE The Device Manager is supported on Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later, Mozilla Firefox 3.0 or later, and Apple Safari 3.0 or later.

Logging In

STEP 1 Power on the PC that you connected to the LAN2 port in Step 2 of the Connecting the Equipment section. Your PC becomes a DHCP client of the firewall and receives an IP address in the 192.168.1.xxx range.

STEP 2 Start a web browser on your PC. In the Address bar, enter the default IP address of the firewall: 192.168.1.1. A message appears about the

site’s security certificate. The Cisco RV220W uses a self-signed security certificate and this message appears because the firewall is not known to your PC. You can safely click Continue (or the option shown on your particular web browser) to go to the web site.

STEP 3 When the login page appears, enter the user name and password. The default user name is cisco. The default password is cisco. Passwords are case sensitive.

NOTE For security reasons, change the default user name and password as soon as possible. See the Changing the Administrator User Name and Password section.

STEP 4 Click Log In.

The Getting Started page displays some of the most common configuration tasks. Click these tasks to view the configuration windows.

To view other configuration tasks, click a menu item on the left panel to expand it. Click the menu names displayed underneath to perform an action or view a sub-menu.

Configuring WAN (Internet) Settings

From the Getting Started page, click Configure WAN Settings. The Cisco RV220W tries to automatically detect and configure your settings; however, in some cases you might need to provide information about your Internet connection type. You can get this information from your Internet Service Provider (ISP). See the Online Help or Cisco RV220W Administrator Guide for more information on configuring Internet settings.

Changing the Administrator User Name and Password

STEP 1 In the left panel, choose Administration.

STEP 2 Click Users, and choose Users. The Users Table appears. The default administrator user and password is listed and is noted by “Administrator,” which appears in the Type column.

STEP 3 Check the box for the administrator user, and click Edit. Follow the instructions in the Online Help to change the password and save.

Configuring Wireless Settings and Security

From the Getting Started page, click Review Wireless Profile and Set Security Settings. See the Online Help or Cisco RV220W Administrator Guide for more information.
