N600 Wireless Dual Band Router WNDR3400 Setup Manual While the router is in WPS enable mode (a maximum of 2 minutes), wireless security is not enabled. Indoors, computers can connect over wireless networks at a range of several hundred feet. Unlike wired network data, your wireless data transmissions can extend beyond your walls, and anyone with a compatible adapter can receive them, allowing others outside your immediate area to access your network. 3. While the dome lights are blinking, you have 2 minutes to enable WPS on the device you are connecting to. The blinking ceases when one of these two conditions occurs: • WPS has enabled security between the router and the other device.The router has generated an SSID, implemented WPA/WPA2 wireless security (including a PSK security password) on the router and has sent this configuration to the wireless client. • The 2-minute window period expires for establishing a connection using WPS. Whether or not a connection is established, your router security and SSID (wireless network name) are now configured for WPA/WPA2 security. The dome lights will stop blinking or turn off, depending on how you have them configured. 4. Note the new SSID and WPA/WPA2 password for the wireless network. To access the Internet from any computer connected to your wireless router, launch a browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. You should see the wireless router's Internet LED blink, indicating communication to the ISP. If you are planning a mixed network of WPS capable devices and non-WPS capable devices, NETGEAR suggests that you set up your wireless network and security settings manually first, and use WPS only for adding additional WPS capable devices. For more information about setting up your wireless network and configuring your wireless security settings, see the User Manual. A link to the online User Manual is on your Resource CD. If you want to disable WPS, you must reset your router to its factory default settings. For information about resetting to the default settings, see "Restoring the Default Password and Configuration Settings" on page 42. Configuring Your Wireless Network 27
