the RangeMax Dual Band Wireless-N Gigabit Router WNDR3700. If they do
not match, you will not get a wireless connection to the WNDR3700 router.

If you are configuring the router from a wireless computer and you change the
router’s SSID, channel, or security settings, you will lose your wireless
connection when you click
Apply
. You must then change the wireless settings
of your computer to match the router’s new settings.
