• Does your wireless device or computer show up on the Attached Devices screen? If it
does, then it is connected to the network.
• If you are not sure what the network name (SSID) or password is, look on the label on
the bottom of your router.
Wireless Setup Screen Fields
Region. The location where the router is used. Select from the countries in the list. Note that
in the United States, the region is fixed to United States and is not changeable.
Wireless Network
Note: These settings apply separately to the 2.4 GHz b/g/n and 5 GHz a/n
bands.
Enable SSID Broadcast. This setting allows the router to broadcast its SSID so wireless
stations can see this wireless name (SSID) in their scanned network lists. This check box is
selected by default. To turn off the SSID broadcast, clear the Allow Broadcast of Name
(SSID) check box, and click Apply.
Enable Wireless Isolation. If this check box is selected, then wireless clients (computers or
wireless devices) that join the network can use the Internet, but cannot access each other or
access Ethernet devices on the network.
Name (SSID). The SSID is also known as the wireless network name. Enter a 32-character
(maximum) name in this field. This field is case-sensitive. The default SSID is randomly
generated, and NETGEAR strongly recommends that you do not change this.
Channel. This setting is the wireless channel used by the gateway. Enter a value from 1
through 13. (For products in the North America market, only Channels 1 through 11 can be
operated.) Do not change the channel unless you experience interference (shown by lost
connections or slow data transfers). If this happens, experiment with different channels to
see which is the best.
Mode. Up to 130 Mbps is the default and allows 802.11n and 802.11g wireless devices to join
the network. g & b supports up to 54 Mbps. The 300 Mbps setting allows 802.11n devices to
connect at this speed.
Security Options Settings
Note: These settings apply separately to the 2.4 GHz b/g/n and 5 GHz a/n
bands.
