v1.2, January 2007

Follow the instructions below to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. Once you have
established basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings appropriate to your needs.

1. In the main menu of the WNR834B router, under the heading Setup, click Wireless Settings.

2. For the wireless network name (SSID), use the default name or choose a suitable descriptive

name. In the SSID box, you can enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default
SSID is NETGEAR.

3. Set the Region. Select the region in which the wireless interface will operate.

4. Set the Channel. The default channel is Auto.

Figure 8-1

Note: The SSID is case sensitive; NETGEAR is not the same as nETgear. Also, the

SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure in
the RangeMax NEXT Wireless Router WNR834B. If they do not match, you
will not get a wireless connection to the WNR834B.
