Wireless Adapter Compatibility

A wireless adapter is the wireless radio in your PC or laptop that lets the PC or laptop

connect to a wireless network. Most PCs and laptops come with an adapter already installed,

but if it is outdated or slow, you can purchase a USB adapter to plug into a USB port.

Make sure the wireless adapter in each computer in your wireless network supports the

same security settings as the modem router. See

Preset Security on page 30 for information

about the modem router’s preconfigured security settings.

Note: If you connect devices to your modem router using WPS as

described in

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Method on page 32,

those devices assume the security settings of the modem router.
