  If your client cannot establish a wireless connection with the Asus Wireless Router, it could be due to several reasons. You might be out of range, so try moving the router closer to the wireless client or changing the channel settings. If it's an authentication issue, use a wired connection to connect to the router or check the wireless security settings. If you cannot find the router, or have authentication problems, press the Reset button on the rear panel for more than five seconds. Also, verify the settings in the wireless adapter such as SSID and encryption settings.
