Using the WPS Button  
1  Start WPS Push Button Connection (WPS PBC) on your  
computer or other Wi-Fi device that you would like to connect  
wirelessly to your Router. Often there will be a button for this  
purpose in software that came with the device, or a physical  
“WPS,” “PBC,” or “Security” button on the device itself.  
2  Within two minutes, press the WPS button on  
your Router and hold for two seconds.  
The WPS light (small light above WPS button) will blink blue while it  
listens for your Wi-Fi device. Once a connection is established, the  
light will turn blue and then go out. If a connection is not established,  
the light will blink amber. You may repeat the process to try again.  
You can repeat this process for each WPS-enabled  
device you’d like to add to your network.  
When finished installing optional software, click  
“Thanks, take me to the dashboard.”  
Congratulations! You are now at your Router’s  
dashboard. Your Router is set up and ready to use.

TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY  
My wireless network performance is slow, inconsistent,  
suffers from weak signal, or I’m having difficulty maintaining a  
VPN connection  
Troubleshooting  
Wireless technology is radio-based, which means connectivity  
and the throughput performance between devices  
I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly  
decreases when the distance between devices increases.  
Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is  
generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls  
and metal appliances. Note also that connection speed may  
decrease as you move farther away from the Router.  
If the light on the front of the Router is solid blue, then your  
Router is connected to the Internet. You may not be connected  
to the Router’s wireless network. Please refer to “Connect Your  
Wireless Devices” on page 20 of this manual for instructions.  
If your Windows XP computer is running SP2, you will  
not be able to set up the Router via the wireless setup  
process. You will need to either update to Windows XP  
SP3 or complete the setup via a wired connection.  
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to  
range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer  
within 10 feet from the Router if possible.  
Changing the wireless channel—Depending on local  
wireless traffic and interference, switching the wireless  
channel of your network can improve performance and  
reliability. See the section titled “Changing the Wireless  
Channel” for instructions on how to choose other channels.  
I can’t connect to the Internet wirelessly and my  
network name is not listed in Available Networks  
1  Verify that your Router is on and the  
front-panel light shows solid blue.  
2  If you are far from the Router, you might try moving  
closer to see if you might have been out of range.  
3  Using a computer attached to the Router via a network cable,  
visit http://router/ and ensure that “Broadcast SSID” is ON.  
This setting is found on the “Channel and SSID” page.

rate can help improve range and connection stability. Most wireless  
cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this  
property in Windows, go to the Windows Control Panel, open “Network  
Connections”, and double-click on your wireless card’s connection. In  
the properties dialog, select the “Configure” button on the “General”  
tab, then choose the “Advanced” tab and select the rate property.  
I’ve installed this new Router and some of my network clients  
(computers, game consoles, etc ) are now unable to connect  
Your new Router came pre-configured with a network name and  
password, found printed on an attached card. All clients must use this  
network name and password to connect wirelessly to your Router.  
You will need to find the network settings on your client, select the  
network name printed on the card from the list of available networks,  
and enter the password when prompted to join the wireless network.  
Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust  
the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause  
periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as  
a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable. Experiment  
with different connection rates until you find the best one  
for your environment. Note that all available transmission  
rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For  
more assistance, see your wireless card’s user manual.

interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined  
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and  
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
Caution: Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation  
The radiated output power of this device is far below the FCC  
radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device shall be  
used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during

Avertissement:  
Conformément à la réglementation d’Industrie Canada, le  
présent émetteur radio peutfonctionner avec une antenne d’un  
type et d’un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pourl’émetteur  
par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de  
brouillage radioélectriqueà l’intention des autres utilisateurs, il  
faut choisir le type d’antenne et son gain de sorte que lapuissance  
isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l’intensité  
nécessaire àl’établissement d’une communication satisfaisante.  
(i) les dispositifs fonctionnant dans la bande 5 150-5 250 MHz  
sont réservés uniquement pour une utilisation à l’intérieur  
afin de réduire les risques de brouillage préjudiciable aux  
systèmes de satellites mobiles utilisant les mêmes canaux;  
(ii) De plus, les utilisateurs devraient aussi être avisés que les  
utilisateurs de radars de haute puissance sont désignés utilisateurs  
principaux (c.-à-d., qu’ils ont la priorité) pour les bandes 5 250-5  
350 MHz et 5 650-5 850 MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer  
du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.  
Le présent émetteur radio (IC: 3623A-F9K1102V3/ Model:  
F9K1102V3) a été approuvé par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner  
avec les types d’antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un  
gain admissible maximal et l’impédance requise pour chaque  
type d’antenne. Les types d’antenne non inclus dans cette  
liste, ou dont le gain est supérieur au gain maximal indiqué,  
sont strictement interdits pour l’exploitation de l’émetteur.  
This radio transmitter (IC: 3623A-F9K1102V3/ Model: F9K1102V3)
