Using the WPS Button  
1. Start WPS Push Button Connection (WPS PBC) on your computer  
or other Wi-Fi device that you would like to connect wirelessly  
to your Modem Router. Often there will be a button for this  
purpose in software that came with the device, or a physical

2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your  
Modem Router and hold for two seconds.  
The WPS light (small light above WPS button) will blink blue while it  
listens for your Wi-Fi device. Once a connection is established, the

1. Verify that your Router is on and the

and the throughput performance between devices  
2. If you are far from the Router, you might try moving

Other factors that will cause signal degradation (metal is  
generally the worst culprit) are obstructions such as walls  
and metal appliances. Note also that connection speed may  
decrease as you move farther away from the Router.  
closer to see if you might have been out of range.  
3. Using a computer attached to the Router via a network cable,  
visit http://router/ and ensure that “Broadcast SSID” is ON.  
This setting is found on the “Channel and SSID” page.  
In order to determine if wireless issues are related to  
range, we suggest temporarily moving the computer  
within 10 feet from the Router if possible.  
Changing the wireless channelDepending on local  
wireless traffic and interference, switching the wireless  
channel of your network can improve performance and  
reliability. See the section titled “Changing the Wireless  
Channel” for instructions on how to choose other channels.

limiting the wireless transmit rateLimiting the wireless transmit  
rate can help improve range and connection stability. Most wireless  
cards have the ability to limit the transmission rate. To change this  
property in Windows, go to the Windows Control Panel, open “Network  
Connections”, and double-click on your wireless card’s connection. In  
the properties dialog, select the “Configure” button on the “General”  
tab, then choose the “Advanced” tab and select the rate property.  
i’ve installed this new router and some of my network clients  
(computers, game consoles, etc.) are now unable to connect.  
Your new Router came pre-configured with a network name and  
password, found printed on an attached card. All clients must use this  
network name and password to connect wirelessly to your Router.  
You will need to find the network settings on your client, select the  
network name printed on the card from the list of available networks,  
and enter the password when prompted to join the wireless network.  
Wireless client cards are usually set to automatically adjust  
the wireless transmit rate for you, but doing so can cause  
periodic disconnects when the wireless signal is too weak; as  
a rule, slower transmission rates are more stable. Experiment  
with different connection rates until you find the best one  
for your environment. Note that all available transmission  
rates should be acceptable for browsing the Internet. For  
more assistance, see your wireless card’s user manual.
