4.5.1.2 How to set up and test basic wireless connectivity

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.

Log in to the 4 Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router default IP address

http://192.168.1.1

with its

default username: Admin and default password: Admin, or using whatever IP Address and

Username and Password you have set up.

2. Click

the

WIRELESS Setup link in the main menu of the 4 Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+

Router.

3. Click

to

Enable AP feature.

4.

Choose a suitable descriptive name for the wireless network name (SSID). In the SSID box, enter

a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default SSID is TI-AR7WRD.

Note: The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure in the 4

Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router . If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection

to the 4 Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router.

5. Uncheck

the

Hidden SSID.

6. Set

the

Channel B/G. The default channel is 11. This field determines which operating frequency

will be used. It should not be necessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice

interference problems with another nearby wireless router or access point.

7.

Set the 802.11 Mode as its default, Mixed.

8. Uncheck

the

User Isolation feature.

9. Click

Apply to complete the setting.

10. To complete and save the setting, click Save All after clicking the Apply button.

11. Configure and test your computers for wireless connectivity. Program the wireless adapter of your

computers to have the same SSID and channel that you configured in the 4 Ports 11g Wireless

ADSL2/2+ Router. Check whether they have a wireless link and are able to obtain an IP address

by DHCP from the 4 Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+ Router.

Once your computers have basic wireless connectivity to the 4 Ports 11g Wireless ADSL2/2+

Router, then you can configure the advanced wireless security functions of the firewall.
