Installation Considerations
The SMCWGBR14-N lets you access your network, using a wireless connection, from virtually
anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind, however, that the number, thickness and location
of walls, ceilings, or other objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range.
Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise
in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1
Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the SMCWGBR14-N and other network
devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your wireless product’s range from
3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so that the number of walls or ceilings is
minimized.
2
Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5 feet thick (.5 meters), at
a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet (1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks
over 42 feet (14 meters) thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a
wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3
Building Materials can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum studs may
have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless
adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
4
Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances
that generate extreme RF noise.
Getting Started
For a typical home setup, you will need a Broadband (Cable/xDSL) Internet service and Modem
with Ethernet connection. Consult with your Cable or xDSL provider for proper installation of the
modem. Please do the following:
1.
Connect your Broadband modem (Cable/xDSL) to the blue WAN port on the Barricade™
2.
Connect the network card of your PC to the yellow LAN port on the Barricade™ using the
yellow RJ-45 cable provided. Now connect the power adapter.
3.
Reboot PC. Start web browser and enter address http://192.168.2.1. When prompted enter
password smcadmin then click [Log In]. Note: The User Name must be set to Admin
.
4.
Click [BASIC], then [Setup Wizard], then [Launch Internet Connection Setup Wizard]. Follow
the on screen instructions to complete the set-up and reboot the Barricade™. You are now
