Follow the guide below to determine the necessary set-up steps for
your environment.

Step 1: Establish Physical Connectivity to the Internet

In most cases, a wired Ethernet connection will be provided by your
ISP. This type of connection includes DSL, Cable and Managed
Internet Connections. It is also possible to connect to the Internet via
a dial up connection, or via high speed cellular access, in which case
you should proceed to the appropriate section in this guide.
Once an Internet Connection has been established, the AT&T
NetGate 8200 will try to retrieve its configuration from the network,
and if successful, may perform an automatic reboot to pick up the
new configuration. This should occur within the first 2-3 minutes after
initial power on. Wait for a steady GREEN ONLINE light on the front
panel to indicate the AT&T NetGate 8200 is ready for use.
