INTRODUCTION

With the explosive growth of the Internet, accessing information and services at any time, day or night has become a standard requirement for most people. The era of the standalone PC is waning. Networking technology is moving out of the exclusive domain of corporations and into homes with at least two computers.

This integrated access device combines Internet gateway functions with wireless LAN and Fast Ethernet switch. Designed for the business and home, it saves you the cost of installing a separate modem and ISP line for each computer, while providing ready connection for the users, with or without the network wires.

Broadband network access is also gaining ground. However, allowing more than two computers to access the Internet at the same time means less affordable, higher costs. Thus, there is a need to share one public IP address over a single Internet connection to link the home with the Internet.

The scarcity of IP addresses and using a shared Internet connection through an Internet sharing device can solve high network access costs. All linked computers can make full use of broadband capabilities over such a device.

This device not only comes equipped with a wide range of features, but also can be installed and configured right out of the box. This device supports a simple local area network and Internet access share, offering great cost savings.

The local area network connects home computers while also allowing any of the computers to access the Internet, share resources, or play online games—the basis of the family computing lifestyle.

Applications:

Broadband Internet access:

Several computers can share one high-speed broadband connection through wireless or wired (WLAN, LAN and WAN-Internet).

Resource sharing:

Share resources such as printers, scanners and other peripherals.

File sharing:

Exchange data, messages, and distribute files thus making good use of hard disk space. Online gaming: Through the local area network, online gaming and e-commerce services can be easily setup.

Firewall:

A built-in firewall function — for security and anti-hacking systems.

Supported Features:

*Maximum wireless signal rates are referenced from IEEE 802.11 theoretical specifications. Actual data throughput and coverage will vary depending on interference, network traffic, building materials and other conditions.

Wireless Performance Considerations

There are a number of factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.

1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path,

rather than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal you will lose.

2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce

the range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will minimize the amount of obstructions between them.

3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor

environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.

4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use

the wireless adapter’s site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for your wireless devices.

5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also

impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF noise, such as microwaves, radios and baby monitors.

6. Any device operating on the 2.4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices

such as 2.4GHz cordless phones or other wireless remotes operating on the

2.4GHz frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal. Although the phone

may not be in use, the base can still transmit wireless signal. Move the phone’s

base station as far away as possible from your wireless devices.

If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide the necessary coverage depending on the environment.

UNPACKING AND SETUP

This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the IEEE 802.11b/g/n Wireless Home Router.

Unpacking

Open the box of the WLAN Router and carefully unpack it. The box should contain the following items:

 TEW-651BR Wireless N Home Router  CD-Rom (User’s Guide)  Multi-Language Quick Installation Guide  External power adapter (5V DC, 1A)  1.5m (4.9ft) Cat.5 Ethernet Cable

If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement.

Setup

The setup of the WLAN Router can be performed properly using the following methods:

 The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the Broadband

Router.

 Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the

power adapter.

 Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation

around the Broadband Router. Do not place heavy objects on the Broadband Router.

 Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the Wireless Router in a position

that can best cover your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the receiving sensitivity.
