Conguring Your Computer
with Windows 95/98/ME
You may nd that the instructions here do not exactly match your
version of Windows. This is because these steps and screenshots
were created from Windows 98. Windows 95 and Windows
Millennium Edition are very similar, but not identical, to Windows 98.
Step 1. Congure TCP/IP Settings
After you have completed the hardware setup by connecting your
devices, you need to congure your computer to connect to your
Barricade. You need to determine how your ISP issues your IP
address. Many ISPs issue these numbers automatically using a
networking technology known as Dynamic Host Control Protocol, or
DHCP. Other ISPs will specify your IP address and associated
numbers, which you must enter manually. This is also known as a
static IP address.
How your ISP assigns your IP address determines how you will
congure your computer.

1. From the Windows desktop, click the
“Start” button. Choose “Settings,” then
click “Control Panel.”
2. From “Control Panel,”
double-click the “Network”
icon.
3. In the “Network” window, under the
“Conguration” tab, double-click the
“TCP/IP” entry that is listed with your
network card.
8
4. Select the “IP Address” tab.
If “Obtain an IP address automatically”
is already selected, your computer is
already congured for DHCP.
Click “Cancel” to close each window, and
skip to Step 2 “Disable HTTP Proxy.”
5. Locate your IP address and Subnet
Mask. Record them in the spaces
provided below.
6. Click the “Gateway” tab and record the
numbers listed under “Installed
gateways.”
7. Click the “DNS Conguration” tab.
Locate the DNS servers listed under
“DNS Server Search Order.” Record the
listed addresses.
8. After writing down your settings, check
to make sure you have recorded them
correctly. Click the “IP Address” tab and
then click “Obtain an IP address auto-
matically.” Click OK.
9. Windows may need your Windows
95/98/ME CD to copy some les. After it
nishes copying, it will then prompt
you to restart your system. Click “Yes”
and your computer will shut down and
restart.

Step 2. Disable HTTP Proxy
You will need to verify that the “HTTP Proxy” feature of your Web
browser is disabled. This is so that your Web browser will be able to
view the conguration pages inside your Barricade.
The following steps are for Internet Explorer and for Netscape.
Determine which browser you use and follow the appropriate steps.
Internet Explorer
1. Open Internet Explorer and click the
stop button. Click “Tools,” then “Internet
Options.”
2. In the “Internet Options” window click
the “Connections” tab. Next, click the
“LAN Settings…” button.
3. Clear all the checkboxes.
4. Click “OK,” and then click “OK” again
to close the “Internet Options” window.

Netscape
1. Open Netscape and click the stop button. Click “Edit,” then click
“Preferences…”
2. In the “Preferences” window, under “Category” double-click
“Advanced,” then click “Proxies.” Select “Direct connection to the
Internet.” Click “OK.”
3. Repeat these steps for each Windows 95/98/Me computer
connected to your Barricade.
Now that you have congured your computer to connect to your
Barricade, it needs to obtain new network settings. By releasing any
old IP settings and renewing them with settings from your Barricade,
you will also verify that you have congured your computer correctly.
1. Click “Start,” then “Run…”
2. Type “WINIPCFG” and click “OK.” It may take a minute or two for
the “IP Conguration” window to appear.
3. From the drop-down menu, select your network card. Click
“Release” and then “Renew.” Verify that your IP address is now
192.168.2.xxx, your Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0 and your Default
Gateway is 192.168. 2.1. These values conrm that your Barricade is
functioning. Click “OK” to close the
“IP Conguration” window.
