I use Smoothwall 2.0 but don't yet have broadband. My 56k modem is a
straightforward serial device which doesn't need any setting up. I do
use a wireless router on the green zone which was a problem to set up
initially.
I got everything working by changing my smoothwall's default range of
addresses from 192.168.0.1 to suit my router, simply because I couldn't
persuade the router to run happily other than on its default IP address
(192.168.2.1).
I do hope to get broadband quite soon so I may need advice on this
shortly.

I don't think JP uses SmoothWall any more. Is this something Paul (our

the browser admin tool. Only then plug in the SmoothWall box, which
