                        Router Label The label on the back of the wireless modem router shows the router’s MAC address, serial  number, and factory default login information.  Figure 4 Positioning Your Wireless Router The wireless modem router lets you access your network from virtually anywhere within the  operating range of your wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your  wireless connection can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your router. For  example, the thickness

                        • Away from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or aluminum studs. Large  expanses of other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks, mirrors, brick, and  concrete can also affect your wireless signal. Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance degradation  or an inability to wirelessly connect to the Internet.

                        Installing Your Router Using the Smart Wizard To use the Smart Wizard, you must be using a PC with Windows Vista, or Windows 2000 or  Windows XP with Service Pack 2. The Smart Wizard setup procedure should take about 15  minutes to complete. Before using the Smart Wizard to set up your router, ensure that: • You have an ADSL Internet service connection through an Internet Service Provider (ISP). • You have the configuration information provided by your ISP.

To ensure optimum performance of your high-speed wireless router, the  wireless adapter card for each computer in your network should support the  same technology as your router (see the online User Manual for more  information). You are now connected to the Internet! To set up your wireless network, see  “Configuring Your Wireless Network” on

                        Understanding ADSL Microfilters ADSL technology uses the same wires as your telephone service. However, ADSL adds signals to  the telephone lines which create noise in the telephone service. You must use ADSL microfilters to  filter out these signals before they reach your telephone. If you purchased the wireless modem router in a country where a microfilter is not  included, you must acquire one.

                        Connecting Your Wireless Modem Router  Before you install your wireless modem router, make sure that the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)  Property settings on your computer are set to “automatically obtain an IP address” using DHCP  and “Obtain DNS server address automatically.” You can check these settings by looking at the  TCP/IP Properties of your Internal Network Connections, which are accessible through the  Control Panel of your computer. If you are unsure about this, refer to the documentatio
