HWireless Network Name (SSID).

The SSID is the network name

shared among all devices in a

wireless network. The SSID must

be identical for all devices in

the wireless network. It is case-

sensitive and must not have

more than 32 characters (use

any keyboard character). For

added security, you should

change the default SSID

(linksys) to a unique name.

IWireless Channel. Select the

appropriate channel from the

list provided to correspond with

your network settings. All

devices in your wireless network

must broadcast on the same

channel in order to function

correctly.

JWireless SSID Broadcast. When

wireless clients survey the local

area for wireless networks to

associate with, they will detect

the SSID broadcast by the

Router. To broadcast the

Router's SSID, keep the default

setting, Enable. If you do not

want to broadcast the Router's

SSID, then select Disable.

KChange these settings as

described here and click the

Save Settings button to apply

your changes.

LPower your broadband

modem off and back on

the browser’s Address field,

enter

www.linksys.com/registration

and press the Enter key.

Congratulations! The installation of

the Wireless-G Travel Router with

SpeedBooster is complete.

IMPORTANT: Once the Router is

configured, wireless security, either

WEP or WPA, should be configured

to prevent security breaches in your

network.

NOTE: If your wireless adapters

support Secure Easy Setup (SES), you

can use the SES button on the Router

to set them up.

To do this: Press and release the

orange Cisco logo on the Router’s

front panel. When the logo turns white

and begins to flash, press the

adapter’s SecureEasySetup button.

(Up to 10 seconds may pass before

the light begins to flash.) The Router’s

Cisco logo will stop flashing when the

device has been added to the

network. Repeat this procedure for

any additional SecureEasySetup

device.

Refer to the User Guide for further

instructions.

The Router comes equipped with

four types of Wireless Security: WEP,

WPA Personal, WPA2 Personal, and

WPA2 Mixed. These security

methods are not enabled right out

of the box, however. Do configure

wireless security on the Router, do

the following:

AOpen the Router’s Web Utility

as shown in Step 2, and click

the Wireless tab. The Basic

Wireless Settings screen will

appear.

BSelect Wireless Security to

configure wireless security on

the Router.

Directions for the configuration

of WEP, WPA Personal, WPA2

Personal, and WPA2 Mixed

wireless security are provided

here.

CFrom the Security Mode pull-

down menu, select the type of

wireless security you’ll use on

your network.

WEP: WEP is a basic encryption

method, which is not as secure as

WPA. To use WEP, select a Default

Transmit Key (choose which Key to

use), and a level of WEP

encryption, 64 bits 10 hex digits

or 128 bits 26 hex digits. Then

either generate a WEP key using

the Passphrase or enter the WEP

key manually.

Configuring Wireless Security

NOTE: If your wireless adapters

support Secure Easy Setup (SES), you

can use the SES button on the Router

to set up Wireless Security.

Basic Wireless Settings

WEP Security Settings

WPA-Personal. This method offers

two encryption methods, TKIP and

AES, with dynamic encryption keys.

Select the type of encryption

method you want to use, TKIP or

AES. Enter the Passphrase, which

can have 8 to 63 characters. Then

enter the Key Renewal period,

which instructs the Router how

often it should change the

encryption keys.

WPA2-Personal. WPA2-Personal

gives you one encryption method,

AES, with dynamic encryption keys.

Enter a Passphrase of 8-63

characters. Then enter a Key

Renewal period, which instructs

the Router how often it should

change the encryption keys.

WPA2-Mixed. WPA2-Mixed gives

you TKIP+AES encryption. Enter a

Passphrase of 8-63 characters.

Then enter a Key Renewal period,

which instructs the Router how

often it should change the

encryption keys.
