TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY

I’ve installed this new Router and some of my network clients

(computers, game consoles, etc°) are now unable to connect°

Your new Router came pre-configured with a network name and

password, found printed on an attached card° All clients must use this

network name and password to connect wirelessly to your Router°

You will need to find the network settings on your client, select the

network name printed on the card from the list of available networks,

and enter the password when prompted to join the wireless network°

Does the Router support Wireless

Protected Access (WPA) security?

The Router ships with WPA/WPA2 security turned on°

Windows XP and some older network hardware may

require a software update to support WPA/WPA2°

I am having difficulty setting up WPA security on my Router°

1°

http://router/

with your web browser°

Click on the “Login” button in the top right-hand corner of the

screen° You will be asked to enter your password° If you have never

set a password, leave the “Password” field blank and click “Submit”°

2°

Click “Wireless” in the left-hand menu° Then

click “Security” just below that°

3°

Select the “WPA/WPA2” option°

connection is now encrypted° Each computer using your

If you are configuring the Router over a wireless

connection, you will have to re-connect to the

Note:

Some older networking hardware supports

only WEP encryption° If your older computers cannot

connect to your network, try 128-bit or 64-bit WEP, or

seek software updates from their manufacturers°
