Chapter 2 Wireless Configuration This chapter describes how to configure the wireless features of your ADSL2+ Modem Wireless Router. In planning your wireless network, consider the level of security required. You should also select the physical placement of your modem router to maximize the network speed. Note: If you are configuring the modem router from a wireless PC and you change the modem router's SSID, channel, or wireless security settings, you will lose your wireless connection when you click Apply. You must then change the wireless settings of your PC to match the modem router's new settings. For proper compliance and compatibility between similar products in your area, you must set the operating channel and region correctly. Set up wireless features for the modem router in this order: 1. Connect the modem router, and get the Internet connection working, as described in Chapter 1, "Configuring Your Internet Connection". The modem router should work with an Ethernet LAN connection before you set up the wireless features. 2. Plan the location for the modem router based on considerations in "Wireless Placement and Range Guidelines". 3. Enter the wireless settings, and verify wireless connectivity, as described in "Viewing or Changing Wireless Settings". 4. Implement wireless security, as described in "Wireless Security". For more information about wireless technology, see the link to the online document in "Wireless Communications" in Appendix C. 2-1 v2.0, September 2007
