Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a NETGEAR FM114P Cable/DSL ProSafe Wireless Firewall with
Print Server. A firewall is a special type of router that incorporates features for network security.
With this firewall you can have secure Internet access through a high-speed DSL or cable modem
and share the single modem with several computers. The FM114P also incorporates a built-in
print server.
This installation guide shows you how to connect the firewall and configure it and your
computers for secure Internet access. Setup is easy—follow the instructions in this guide and
your system will be up and running quickly.
If you have problems, there is a troubleshooting section on page 13 to help you—or you can
get more detailed troubleshooting information from the Reference Manual on the CD, online
from www.NETGEAR.com or by phone.
