total available bandwidth. If you are experiencing
significant reductions in your download speeds
during peak times, contact your ISP to solve this
issue.

b. If you are experiencing problems all of the time as

opposed to only during peak times, then connect
your computer directly to your router and test the
speed, compared to when your computer is
connected to directly to the wireless bridge. If your
Internet connection speed is consistently fast when
connected directly to your router then the problem
may be related to the CV-7438nDM – the connection
between the wireless bridge and wireless router is
not optimal. Try to re-locate the wireless bridge to
improve the connection.

c. Ensure that you’re connection is secure. If you are

using an unsecured wireless connection, it is
possible that someone is sharing your connection
without your knowledge and this could be causing
low connection speeds.

Set up your network device as you usually would for a
regular Ethernet wired connection – not a wireless
connection. Although the CV-7438nDM is a wireless
device, it is connected to your network device via a
standard Ethernet cable. Effectively, the wireless bridge
is “transparent” in your network, in that your network
device does not actually know it is there.
For example, if using a TV check Network Connection –
(Cable or wired)
or similar. For a PS3, check Internet
Connection Settings
for a wired connection
(Settings>Network Settings>Internet Connection
Settings). See:

Can a CV-7438nDM
be powered from
the USB port of a
TV?

Yes – provided that the TV is capable of supplying 1 A
of current via USB. Some TV’s may only support a
maximum 500mA current via USB, in which case there
is a power adapter included in the package contents for
use with the CV-7438nDM instead.
