Prepare to Install Your FVS336G VPN

Firewall

This guide provides instructions for setting up a simple dual WAN port rollover

configuration. Refer to the Reference Manual for other WAN port configuration options.

First, Connect the FVS336G

1. CONNECT THE CABLES BETWEEN THE FVS336G, THE MODEMS, AND A

COMPUTER

a. Turn off and unplug the broadband modems.

b. Insert an Ethernet cable from a modem into the WAN1 port (1) of the FVS336G.

c. Insert an Ethernet cable from the other modem into the WAN2 port (2) of the

FVS336G.

d. Insert the Ethernet cable that came with your firewall into a LAN port on the

router (3) and insert the other end into the Ethernet port of your computer.

Your network cables are connected and you are ready to restart your network.

2. RESTART YOUR NETWORK IN THE CORRECT SEQUENCE

Warning: Failure to restart your network in the correct sequence could prevent you

from connecting to the Internet.

a. First, power on the broadband modems. Wait approximately 2 minutes until they

power up.

b. Now, power on the FVS336G by plugging in the power cord that came with your

router (4) and turning on the device (5).

c. After the Test LED (7) extinguishes, turn on your computer.

d. Before configuring your FVS336G, check the status LEDs to verify the

following:

• Power. The power LED (6) should turn solid green. If it does not turn solid

green, see the Troubleshooting section Reference Manual.

• Test. When you first turn on the router, the amber test LED (7) will be lit for

approximately 2 minutes. If it is still on after several minutes, see the

Troubleshooting Tips below.

• WAN. The Active LEDs on WAN Port 1 and WAN Port 2 should be lit (8). If

not, make sure the Ethernet cables are securely attached to the modems and

the WAN ports, and that the modems are powered on. The Link/Act LEDs

(9) indicate activity over the port. The Speed LEDs (10) respond as follows:

green indicates your computer is communicating at 1 Gbps; amber indicates

communication at 100 Mbps; no light indicates communication at 10 Mbps.

• LAN. The LAN ports Speed and Link/Act LEDS should respond in the same

manner as the WAN ports for the connected LAN ports.

Next, Configure the FVS336G for Internet

Access

Before you begin, be sure you have the configuration parameters from your ISP handy.

1. LOG IN TO THE ROUTER

a. Use a browser to connect to https://192.168.1.1

Note: To connect to the firewall, your computer needs to be configured to obtain

an IP address automatically via DHCP. If you need instructions on how to do this,

please refer to the online reference manual. A link to the manual is on your

Resource CD.

b. For security reasons, the firewall

has its own user name and

password.

When prompted, enter admin for

the firewall User Name and pass-

word for the firewall Password.

c. Click Login. You are now

connected to the firewall. The

Router Status screen will display.

The Web Support tab on the main menu contains links to the online NETGEAR

FVS336G product documentation and support Knowledgebase. Be aware that the

default login time-out is 5 minutes of inactivity, after which automatic logout will

occur.

2. CONNECT TO THE INTERNET

a. Select WAN Settings > WAN1 ISP Settings. The WAN 1 ISP Settings screen

will display.

a. Click Auto Detect at the bottom of the WAN1 ISP Settings screen. The router

will automatically attempt to detect your connection type. If you know your ISP

connection type, you can manually configure the router settings on the WA N1

ISP screen. If connecting manually, click Apply to save your settings.

b. When finished, click Test to verify that the Internet connection is active.

c. Select the WAN2 ISP tab and complete the same steps you just completed in
