Safeguarding Your Network

For a wireless connection, the SSID, also called the wireless network name, and the wireless

security setting must be the same for the wireless router and wireless computers or wireless

adapters. NETGEAR strongly recommends that you use wireless security.

This chapter includes:

• ”“Planning Your Wireless Network

•“Manually Configuring Your Wireless Settings” on page 2-4

•“Using Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network” on page 2-12

•“Connecting Additional Wireless Client Devices After WPS Setup” on page 2-17

• “Restricting Access to Your Router” on page 2-19

Planning Your Wireless Network

For compliance and compatibility between similar products in your area, the operating channel

and region must be set correctly.

To configure the wireless network, you can either specify the wireless settings, or you can use Wi-

Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to automatically set the SSID and implement WPA/WPA2 security.

• To manually configure the wireless settings, you must know the following:

– . The default SSID for the wireless router is NETGEAR. SSID

Warning: Computers can connect wirelessly at a range of several hundred feet. This can

allow others outside of your immediate area to access your network.

Note: For information about restricting access to USB storage devices, see “Configuring

USB Storage Advanced Settings” on page 7-7.

• automatically implements wireless security on the wireless router Push 'N' Connect (WPS)

while, at the same time, allowing you to automatically implement wireless security on any

WPS-enabled devices (such as wireless computers and wireless adapter cards). You activate

WPS by pressing a WPS button on the wireless router, clicking an onscreen WPS button, or

entering a PIN number. This generates a new SSID and implements WPA/WPA2 security.

To set up your wireless network using the WPS feature:

– Use the WPS button on the side of the wireless router (there is also an onscreen WPS

button), or enter the PIN of the wireless device.

– Make sure that all wireless computers and wireless adapters on the network are Wi-Fi

certified and WPA or WPA 2 capable, and that they support WPS configuration.

See .“Using Push 'N' Connect (WPS) to Configure Your Wireless Network” on page 2-12

Wireless Placement and Range Guidelines

The range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the physical placement of

the wireless router. The latency, data throughput performance, and notebook power consumption

of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration choices.

For best results, place your wireless router according to the following guidelines:

• Near the center of the area in which your PCs will operate.

• In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected PCs have line-of-

sight access (even if through walls).

• Away from sources of interference, such as PCs, microwave ovens, and 2.4 GHz cordless

phones.

• Away from large metal surfaces.

Note: NETGEAR’s Push 'N' Connect feature is based on the Wi-Fi Protected Setup

(WPS) standard (for more information, see http://www.wi-fi.org). All other Wi-

Fi-certified and WPS-capable products should be compatible with NETGEAR

products that implement Push 'N' Connect.

• Put the router in a vertical position to provide the best side-to-side coverage. Put the router in a

horizontal position to provide the best up-and-down coverage.

• If using multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different radio

frequency channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between

adjacent access points is 5 channels (for example, use Channels 1 and 6, or 6 and 11).

The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security

settings and placement. WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP

encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.

Wireless Security Options

Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11g wireless networks at a maximum range of up to 300

feet. Such distances can allow for others outside your immediate area to access your network.

Unlike wired network data, your wireless data transmissions can extend beyond your walls and

can be received by anyone with a compatible adapter. For this reason, use the security features of

your wireless equipment. The WNR2200 router provides highly effective security features which

are covered in detail in this chapter. Deploy the security features appropriate to your needs.

There are several ways you can enhance the security of your wireless network:

• Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) data encryption provides data security. WEP Shared WEP.

Key authentication and WEP data encryption block all but the most determined eavesdropper.

This data encryption mode has been superseded by WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.

• . Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) using a pre-shared WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (AES)

key to perform authentication and generate the initial data encryption keys. The very strong

authentication along with dynamic per frame re-keying of WPA makes it virtually impossible

to compromise.
