Getting to Know Your Wireless Router 6

• Away from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or aluminum studs. Large

expanses of other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks, mirrors, brick, and

concrete can also affect your wireless signal.

Installing Your N300 Wireless Router

To help you set up your router and get on the Internet quickly, the Resource CD contains a Smart

Wizard™. The Smart Wizard walks you through the steps required to connect your router and

PC(s); configure your internet settings; configure your wireless settings; and enable wireless

security for your network. When you have finished, you will be Internet ready!

You can set up your N300 wireless router using one of two methods:

• Smart Wizard Setup: The Smart Wizard setup is available on your Resource CD. See

“Installing Your Wireless Router Using Smart Wizard” on page 9 to use the Smart Wizard.

– This is the easiest option. The wizard guides you through the setup process. It automates

many of the steps and verifies that the steps have been successfully completed.

– Smart Wizard requires a PC running Microsoft Windows.

• Manual Setup: If you cannot or prefer not to use the Smart Wizard, see “Installing Your

Wireless Router Manually (Advanced and Linux Users)” on page 11. For example, if you are

using a Linux operating system or are technically knowledgeable, select this option. If you

choose to use this option and install your router manually, for best results, install and set up

your router in this order:

Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance degradation

or an inability to wirelessly connect to the Internet.

If you have a Linux system, you need to use the manual installation method (see

“Installing Your Wireless Router Manually (Advanced and Linux Users)” on

page 11).

Before running the Smart Wizard on a corporate PC to set up your home

router, check with your company’s network support staff. Corporate

network settings or Virtual Private Network (VPN) client software may

conflict with the default settings of a home router. If you are unsure about

whether there might be a conflict, use a different computer.
