This document describes the basic process of cabling and configuring Cisco 826 and Cisco SOHO 76 routers. It contains the following sections:
The shipment of your router includes the following items:
Figure 1 shows the items included with the router. If any of the items is missing or damaged, contact your customer service representative.
If you are connecting a PC to the router Ethernet port, you must first verify that the PC has a network interface card (NIC) installed and that Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) has been loaded and configured. For more information on how to configure TCP/IP, refer to the Microsoft documentation provided with your Windows operating system.
Follow these steps to connect the Cisco 826 or Cisco SOHO 76 router to a PC:
Step 2 Verify that the TO HUB/TO PC switch on the left side of the back panel has been set to the TO PC position (out). If the button is in, press it to set it to the out position.
Follow these steps to connect the Cisco 826 or Cisco SOHO 76 router to a hub:
Step 2 Verify that the TO HUB/TO PC switch on the left side of the back panel has been set to the TO HUB position (in). If the button is out, press it to set it to the in position.
Follow these steps to connect an ADSL to the ADSL over ISDN port on your router:
Step 2 Connect the other end of the ADSL cable to the external wall jack.
Follow these steps to connect power to the Cisco 826 or Cisco SOHO 76 router and turn it on:
).
Step 2 Connect the power supply cable to the 8-pin connector on the router, as shown in Figure 5.
Step 3 Connect the socket end of the power cord to the desktop power supply.
Step 4 Connect the plug end of the power cord to an electrical outlet.
Step 5 Turn on the router. Press the power switch to on (|).
The following table describes the normal condition for LEDs and what to do if you observe an abnormal condition. For more information on all LEDs or to resolve problems, see the Cisco 826 and Cisco SOHO 76 Router Hardware Installation Guide.
| LED | Normal Condition | Explanation | Actions to Take |
|---|---|---|---|
OK | On | Power is supplied to the router. | If the LED is off, power is not being supplied to the router. Check the outlet to make sure that it is not switched off. Check the power cables to verify that the cable from the outlet to the power supply is properly connected. Check the cable from the power supply to the router to make sure that it is properly connected. |
ADSL CD | On | ADSL is connected. | If the LED is off, check the connections. Also, verify that service is being provided to the premises. |
ADSL RXD | Blinking | ADSL port receives data. | If the LED is off continuously and you know that data is being sent to the router, check the ADSL connections. Also, check to ensure that the router or the ADSL switch (the service provider device) is properly configured. |
ADSL TXD | Blinking | ADSL port sends data. | If the LED is off continuously and you know that data is being sent to the router, check the ADSL connections. Also, check to ensure that the router is properly configured. |
ETHERNET 1 | On | Ethernet device is connected. | If the LED is off, toggle the TO HUB/TO PC button (if set to TO HUB [in], reset to TO PC [out], and vice versa). Also, make sure that the connected device is powered on. |
ETHERNET RXD | Blinking | Ethernet port is receiving a packet. | If the LED is off continuously and you are that sure another device is attempting to send data to the router, check the Ethernet connections. Also, make sure that the router or the LAN device attempting to send data to the router is properly configured. |
ETHERNET TXD | Blinking | Ethernet port is transmitting a packet. | If the LED is off continuously and you are sure that the router is attempting to send data to another device, check the Ethernet connections. Also, make sure that the router is properly configured. |
The Cisco Router Web Setup (CRWS) software is already loaded on your router. If you purchased your router through an Internet service provider (ISP), it is possible that your router has already been configured for use at your site, and no additional configuration is necessary.
If your router has not been configured by your service provider or network administrator, it can be configured by using the command-line interface (CLI). However, unless you are an advanced user, we recommend that you use CRWS to configure the router. CRWS is a web-based utility that makes it easy to configure the router by following the setup instructions on the screen. (Detailed information about CRWS is provided in the Cisco Router Web Setup User Guide.)
To launch CRWS, complete these steps:
Step 2 Open a web browser.
Step 3 Type in the universal resource locator (URL) http://10.10.10.1.
Step 4 Click the Router Setup link in the Cisco Router Web Setup home page, and follow the instructions that appear in the page that is displayed.
If the CRWS home page does not appear when you enter the URL (Step 3), test the connection between the PC and the router by doing the following:
If the CRWS home page still does not appear, verify that the web browser's Work Offline option is disabled.
If the web page still does not appear, verify that your PC is automatically configured to receive an IP address. Follow the instructions in the Cisco Router Web Setup User Guide, which is available on the Cisco Documentation CD-ROM.
The Cisco 800 and SOHO Series Product Documentation CD contains the technical publications for the Cisco 826 and Cisco SOHO 76 routers. The information can be displayed on a PC that meets or exceeds the following system requirements.
Processor | Pentium 150 MHz or faster recommended |
|---|---|
Operating System | Microsoft Windows 95 |
Memory | 64 MB of DRAM |
Drives | 4x CD-ROM drive |
Monitor | Color monitor capable of 800 x 600 pixel resolution |
Software | Netscape 3.0 or later |
When the CD is first launched, it automatically opens a browser session and displays the CD interface in the browser window. You can use the list of books in the left pane of your display to navigate directly to the book you want to view. Within the interface, you can use your mouse to
When you first launch the CD, you will notice a list of books in the left pane of the display that you can use to navigate directly to the book you wish to view. When you select the document, Acrobat Reader opens the book in PDF format and provides a list of topics in the left frame of the Acrobat window. To disable this option and view the book fully in the window, click the Show/Hide Navigation Pane button on the Acrobat toolbar. Note that when you hide the bookmarks, the thumbnails, annotations, and articles are also hidden.
The following sections explain how to obtain documentation from Cisco Systems.
