APPENDIX A | Troubleshooting
The information outlined in this section describes some useful steps for getting your computer and
Barricade router online.
A.1 | Verify you are connected to the Barricade Router
If you are unable to access the Barricade’s web-based administration pages, then you may not be
properly connected or configured. The screen shots in this section were taken on a Windows 2000
machine, but the same steps will apply to Windows 95/98/Me/XP.
To determine your TCP/IP configuration status, please follow the steps below:
1.
Click [Start] then choose [Run]
2.
Type “cmd” or “command” (without the quotes) to open a DOS prompt.
3.
In the DOS window, type “ipconfig” and verify the information that is displayed.
4.
If you computer is setup for DHCP, then your TCP/IP configuration should be similar to the
information displayed:
IP Address: 192.168.2.X (x is number between 100 and 199)
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.2.1
If you have an IP address that starts with 169.254.XXX.XXX then see section A.2.
If you have another IP address configured, see section A.3.
A.2 | I am getting an IP Address that starts with 169.254.XXX.XXX
If you are getting this IP Address, then you need to check that you are properly connected to the
Barricade Router.
Confirm that you have a good link light on the Barricade’s port to which this computer is
connected.
If not, please try another cable.
If you have a good link light, please open up a DOS window as described in section A.1 and type
“ipconfig /renew” (without the quotes)
If you are still unable to get an IP Address from the Barricade, reinstall your network adapter.
Please refer to your adapter manual for instructions.

A.3 | I have another IP Address displayed
If you have another IP address listed, then the PC may not be configured for a DHCP connection.
Please refer to
Chapter 4 | Configure your Computer
for information.
Once you have confirmed your computer is configured for DHCP, and then please follow the steps
below.
1.
Open a DOS window as described above.
2.
Type “ipconfig /release” (without the quotes)
3.
Then type “ipconfig /renew” (without the quotes)
Once you are able to get a valid IP address from the Barricade Router, then you can now access
the web-based Administration pages.
If you still are not getting an IP address from the Barricade, please reset the router as outlined
in Chapter 2 and follow the steps outlined in this appendix again.
If you still cannot access the router once you have reset it, please contact SMC Technical
Support.

A.4 | I can’t access my e-mail, web or I am getting corrupted data from the Internet.
The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) setting may need to be adjusted. By default, the MTU is set
at 1454.
For most DSL users, it is strongly recommended to use MTU 1492.
If you are having some difficulties, perform the following steps:
1.
To connect to the Barricade g, launch your web browser, and enter http://192.168.2.1 or the
IP address of the Barricade in the Address bar.
2.
Enter the password, if asked. (The default password is smcadmin.)
3.
Click on [WAN] and then select the [PPPoE] option.
4.
Look for the MTU option and in the MTU Size field, enter 1492.
5.
Click the [SAVE SETTINGS] button to continue.
If your difficulties continue, change the Size to different values. Try this list of values, one value at
a time, in this order, until your problem is solved:

APPENDIX B | Troubleshooting Internet Connections
Put information here about specific ISP tricks and how to avoid those basic setup calls.
B.1 | I have a Dynamic IP connection and I can’t get online
Most cable companies use a Dynamic IP configuration to provide Internet access. If you have this
type of connection, and are unable to get connected, please follow the steps outlined below:
1.
Unplug the power from your Cable or DSL modem for 2 mins.
2.
Confirm that your Barricade router is configured for a Dynamic IP configuration
3.
Plug the power back into your Modem.
4.
Wait for your Modem to connect to the network, and then click on the status page of the
router to confirm that you are online.
The reason this process works is because certain broadband connections require a MAC address to
gain network access. This MAC address can be changed by following the above process to re-set the
approved MAC address to the MAC address of the Barricade router.
