3. Wireless Settings 3 Protecting your network This chapter describes how to use the Wireless Settings screens to view and change (if needed) your wireless network settings. Security features to prevent objectionable content from reaching your PCs are covered in Chapter 4, Security Settings. This chapter contains the following sections: • Wireless Adapter Compatibility • Preset Security • Security Basics • Add Clients (Computers or Devices) to Your Network • Wireless Settings Screen • Wireless Guest Networks Wireless Adapter Compatibility A wireless adapter is the wireless radio in your PC or laptop that lets the PC or laptop connect to a wireless network. Most PCs and laptops come with an adapter already installed, but if it is outdated or slow, you can purchase a USB adapter to plug into a USB port. Make sure the wireless adapter in each computer in your wireless network supports the same security settings as the modem router. See Preset Security on page 30 for information about the modem router's preconfigured security settings. Note: If you connect devices to your modem router using WPS as described in Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Method on page 32, those devices assume the security settings of the modem router. 29
