Chapter 4 Troubleshooting

Can my neighbor receive the Hub’s network signal?
It is possible for a neighbor to receive the network signal. To prevent this, change the
default 56-bit

DES

security encryption password on the Hub (see chapter 3).

How do I find out what the current speed and signal strength of the Hub’s
network is?

Run the Hub’s Configuration Utility to show current speed and signal strength.

How many Hubs do I need to set up a network?
One.

To set up the Hub’s network correctly, do I have to install the Configuration
Utility on each computer on the network?
No, the Configuration Utility is a diagnostic and security tool. Since the Hub is
fully plug-and-play compatible, it needs no software drivers to operate.

How many Hubs can be installed on the same LAN (local area network)?
Actiontec recommends using no more than 16 Hubs on one network.
