Reference Manual for the ProSafe Wireless 802.11g Firewall/Print Server Model FWG114P v2
3-12 Connecting the FWG114P v2 to the Internet
201-10301-02, May 2005
Note: You will no longer need to launch the ISP’s login program on your computer in order to
access the Internet. When you start an Internet application, your firewall will automatically log
you in.
3. The Idle Timeout setting determines how long to wait after there is no activity before
disconnecting from the Internet. This is useful in countries where Internet service charges are
based on the amount of time connected to the Internet. Whenever a computer on the network
requests access to the Internet the FWG114P v2 will automatically reconnect.
4. Domain Name Server (DNS) Address: If you know that your ISP does not automatically
transmit DNS addresses to the firewall during login, select “Use these DNS servers” and enter
the IP address of your ISP’s Primary DNS Server. If a Secondary DNS Server address is
available, enter it also.
Note: If you enter an address here, after you finish configuring the firewall, reboot your PCs
so that the settings take effect.
5. Click Apply to save your settings.
6. Click Test to test your Internet connection. If the NETGEAR Web site does not appear within
one minute, refer to Chapter 11, “Troubleshooting”.
