Click the Wireless Settings link in the main menu of the router. 3. Note that the default SSID is NETGEAR. Note: The SSID of any wireless adapters must match the SSID you configure in the router. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection. 4. Set the Region. Select the region in which the wireless interface will operate. 5. Click Apply to save your changes.

Program the wireless adapter of your computers to have the same wireless network name (SSID) as the router. Check that they have a wireless link and are able to obtain an IP address by DHCP from the router. Connecting the Router to the Internet 1-9 v1.0, April 2007
