CHAPTER 2 Getting Started
Before you begin
Pre-installation checklist
Before installing your new WatchGuard SOHO please ensure that
you have:
• A 10BaseT Ethernet I/O network card installed in your
computer.
• A cable or DSL modem with a 10BaseT port.
• Two Ethernet network cables with RJ45 connectors. These
must not be “crossover cables” (which are usually red or
orange). One cable is furnished with your unit. A second
cable may have been supplied with your modem. If not, you
will need to purchase a second Ethernet, RJ45 cable. Make
sure that both cables are long enough to comfortably connect
the modem to the SOHO and the SOHO to the computer in
your individual office environment.
