setting up a secure wireless network connection for any WPS-enabled wireless device, such as a

computer, tablet, gaming device, or network printer. WPS automatically configures your wireless

network connections and sets up wireless security. See

Installing the Wireless Router

This product is for indoor use only. Do not route the Ethernet cable(s)

outside of the building. Exposure of the cables to lightning could create a

safety hazard and damage the product.

Pre-Installation Considerations

You should consider the following factors when choosing a location to install your SBR-AC1750:

•

For the best Wi-Fi coverage, a central location in your home or building is recommended.

•

Check that there is an available AC outlet available nearby. For best results, the outlet should

not be connected to a wall switch and it should be close enough to the SBR-AC1750 to avoid

using extension cords.

•

Make sure your Internet Service Provider (ISP) cable, DSL, or satellite modem device is nearby

so that you can easily run cables between the modem and SBR-AC1750.

•

If you are connecting devices to the Ethernet ports, make sure you can easily run cables

between the SBR-AC1750 and those devices.

•

If you want to install the SBR-AC1750 on a desktop, make sure there is enough space on both

sides of the device to keep the vents clear. Blocking the vents may cause overheating.

•

Consider the amount of space between your wireless devices. The wireless connection range

for the SBR-AC1750 is typically 100–200 feet (30m–65m). The distance may vary depending on

impacting factors such as the number of walls, metal objects, etc.

Connect the SBR-AC1750 to Your Computer

Before installing your SBR-AC1750:

•

To access the Internet, you will need a broadband Internet connection from an Internet

Service Provider.

•

Choose a location in your home where your modem is preferably near existing cable and

electrical wall outlets.
