NETGEAR Wireless-N 300 Router WNR2000 User Manual
2-2 Safeguarding Your Network
v1.3, July 2009
WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK
encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer, and can cause significant
performance degradation with a slow computer.
To configure the wireless network, you can:
• Manually specify your SSID and your wireless security settings. The WNR2000 router
provides two screens for configuring the wireless settings:
– Wireless Settings. You access these under Setup in the main menu (see “Viewing Basic
Wireless Settings” on page 2-6).
– Advanced Wireless Settings. You access these under Advanced in the main menu (see
“Viewing Advanced Wireless Settings” on page 2-12).
Note: NETGEAR recommends that you change the administration password of your
router. Default passwords are well known, and an intruder can use your
administrator access to read or disable your security settings. For information
about how to change the administrator password, see “Changing the Administrator
Password” on page 2-21.
