Basic Wireless Setup

To configure the router’s basic wireless and wired network configuration settings without running

the Setup Wizard, you can access the windows used to configure Wireless, WAN, LAN and

DHCP settings directly from the Home directory. To access the Wireless Settings window, click

on the

Wireless

link on the left side of the first window that appears when you successfully

access the web manager.

Wireless Settings menu – default settings

By default the wireless AP is enabled for use by 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n workstations.

The

Set Wireless Mode

options are used to configure the access point to use 11b only, 11g

only, 11n only, a mix of 11b and 11g, or a mix of all three standards. To turn off all wireless

function, select the Disable option.

The

SSID

identifies members of the Service Set. Accept the default name or change it to

something else. All other devices on the wireless network using the Wireless Broadband Router

must use the same SSID.

What channels are available for use by the access point depends on the local regulatory

environment. Remember that all devices communicating with the device must use the same

channel (and use the same SSID). Use the drop-down menu to select the

Channel

used for

your 802.11 Wireless LAN. The wireless channel number is available from your Internet Service

Provider (ISP).

If network

Security

is not used, click None, then click

Apply
