Checking Settings
The Setup Assistant will now
examine your computer’s network
settings and gather information
needed to complete the Router’s
connection to the Internet.

Verifying Hardware Connections
The Setup Assistant will now
verify your hardware connection.

Naming your Wireless Network
The Setup Assistant will display
the default wireless network name
or Service Set Identifier (SSID).
This is the name of your wireless
network to which your computers

adapters will connect. You can
either use the default or change it
to something unique. Write down
this name for future reference.
If the Router is capable of “High
Speed Mode”, this option will be
checked. You can turn off this
option later using the Bandwidth
Switch described in this User
