Note:

Security of the 802.11g wireless connection associated with this 2Wire 2701HGV-W

ADSL2+ Router is the customer’s responsibility. Telecom will take no responsibility for
charges made to customer’s accounts due to poorly organized wireless security allowing
unknown users to connect to the internet via this wireless router. Should this occur, do not
complain to the Telecom Fault Service or Jetstream Helpdesk.

Note:

If you use a 2Wire wireless adapter (PC card or USB adapter) for wireless networking,

the 2Wire CD automatically configures it to communicate with the gateway during setup. If
you are NOT using a 2Wire wireless adapter, you must manually configure your adapter to
communicate with the gateway using the information on page 6.
