Connecting the Firewall to the Internet

For the initial connection to the Internet and configuration of your firewall, you will need to 
connect a computer to the firewall which is set to automatically get its TCP/IP configuration from 
the firewall via DHCP.

Please refer to 

 for assistance with DHCP 

configuration.

Depending on how your ISP set up your Internet account, you will need one or more of these 
configuration parameters to connect your firewall to the Internet: 

•

Host and Domain Names

•

ISP Login Name and Password

•

ISP Domain Name Server (DNS) Addresses

•

Fixed or Static IP Address

There are several ways you can gather the required Internet connection information.

•

Your ISP should have provided you with all the information needed to connect to the Internet. 
If you cannot locate this information, you can ask your ISP to provide it or you can try one of 
the options below.

•

If you have a computer already connected using the active Internet access account, you can 
gather the configuration information from that computer.

•

For Windows 95/98/ME, open the Network control panel, select the TCP/IP entry for the 
Ethernet adapter, and click Properties.

•

For Windows 2000/XP, open the Local Area Network Connection, select the TCP/IP entry 
for the Ethernet adapter, and click Properties.

•

For Macintosh computers, open the TCP/IP or Network control panel.

•

You may also refer to the FVS318 Resource CD (SW-10021-01) for the NETGEAR Router 
ISP Guide which provides Internet connection information for many ISPs.

Once you locate your Internet configuration parameters, you may want to record them on the page
