Wireless > Basic Wireless Settings
The basic settings for wireless networking are set on this screen.
There are two ways to configure the Router’s wireless network(s), manual and Wi-Fi Protected Setup.
Wi-Fi Protected Setup is a feature that makes it easy to set up your wireless network. If you have client devices, such as wireless adapters, that support Wi-Fi Protected Setup, then you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup.
Simultaneous Networks
For more wireless bandwidth, the Router can create two simultaneous yet separate Wireless-N networks, one using the Wireless-N 5 GHz band and one using the Wireless-N
2.4 GHz band. You can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup to easily configure and connect to both networks (refer to “Wi-Fi Protected Setup” on page 9), or you can manually configure the Router.
If you use manual configuration, then set up each network with the following:
• Unique Network Name (SSID)
• Wireless security settings (refer to
“5 GHz or 2.4 GHz Wireless Security” on page 10)
Decide which computers and other wireless devices should join which network. Wireless-N devices support both the 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands, so they can join either the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz network. Wireless-G and Wireless-B devices support only the 2.4 GHz band, so they should join the 2.4 GHz network. Wireless-A devices support only the 5 GHz band, so they should join the 5 GHz network.
Advanced Dual-Band N Router
For the 5 GHz network, configure all computers and other wireless devices with the same 5 GHz Network Name (SSID) and wireless security settings. For the 2.4 GHz network, configure all computers and other wireless devices with the same 2.4 GHz Network Name (SSID) and wireless security settings.
