How to Set Up and Test Basic Wireless Connectivity

Follow the instructions below to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. Once you have

established basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings appropriate to your needs.

1. Log in to the WNR834M firewall at its default LAN address of http://www.routerlogin.net (or

http://192.168.1.1) with its default user name of admin and default password of password, or

using whatever LAN address and password you have set up.

2. Click Wireless Settings in the main menu of the WNR834M firewall.

3. Choose a suitable descriptive name for the wireless network name (SSID). In the SSID box,

enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default SSID is NETGEAR.

Note: If you use a wireless computer to configure WPA settings, you will be disconnected

when you click Apply. Reconfigure your wireless adapter to match the new

settings or access the wireless router from a wired computer to make any further

changes.

Note: The SSID is case sensitive; NETGEAR is not the same as nETgear. Also, the

SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure in

the RangeMax NEXT Wireless Router WNR834M. If they do not match, you

will not get a wireless connection to the WNR834M.
