Setting Up And Testing Basic Wireless Connectivity - NETGEAR WGT624 v4 User Manual

Setting Up and Testing Basic Wireless Connectivity

Note: If you use a wireless computer to change wireless settings, you might be
disconnected when you click Apply. Reconfigure your wireless adapter to match
the new settings, or access the router from a wired computer to make any further
changes.
Follow these instructions to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. Once you have established
basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings appropriate to your needs.
To view or manually configure the wireless settings:
1. From the main menu, under the Setup heading, select Wireless Settings to display the
Wireless Settings screen:
Figure 1-6
The settings for this screen are explained in
page 2-5.
2. For the wireless network names, use the default name, or choose suitable descriptive names. In
the Name (SSID) field, you can enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default
SSID is NETGEAR.
Note: The SSID is case-sensitive; NETGEAR is not the same as nETgear. Also, the
SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you specify in the
wireless router. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection to
the wireless router.
