February 2005 (202-10034-03)
If you are using the WGR101 with multiple users, it works as a secondary router. The primary
router may be set up to block parameters such as ftp or TCPIP. Check the settings on the
primary router.
The WGR101 default IP setting is 192.168.0.1 with the user name of admin and the password
of password. If you connect the WGR101 to another router that also is set as 192.168.0.x, you
must change the WGR101 wireless travel router setting so that it does not conflict.
Check the router status lights to verify correct router operation.
During normal operation, the WGR101 Power LED is solid green, and the Ethernet and
Wireless LEDS are solid green, or flashing during data transfer.
If the Power light does not turn solid green within 2 minutes after turning on the router, reset
the router according to the instructions in

.
If the Wireless light does not come on, verify that the wireless feature is turned on according to
the instructions in
“Restoring the Default Configuration and Password” on page 7-4
.
If the status lights are normal and there is no Internet connection, use an Ethernet cable to
connect the PC directly to the RJ45 port in the wall. If you are able to connect to the Internet,
this indicates a problem with the WGR101 configuration.
Make sure the wireless settings in the computer and router are set correctly.
The Wireless Network Name (SSID) and WEP settings of the router and wireless computer
must match exactly. The SSID is case sensitive.
If you are a single user and are not using WEP security, another user may be connected to this
SSID. Repower the WGR101 to clear the connection, and retry. If the problem persists,
configure the router to use the MAC address access control feature or WEP to reserve the
connection for you.

connection to the Internet is allowed.
