Each computer or wireless adapter in your network must have the same SSID and
wireless mode (bandwidth and data rate) as the modem router. Check that the wireless
adapter on each computer can support the mode and security option you want to use.

The security option on each wireless device in the network must match the modem
router. For example, if you select a security option that requires a passphrase, be sure to
use the same passphrase for each wireless computer in the network.
