1. Go to the TCP/IP settings on your computer and assign a static IP address on your computer's network adapter in the subnet of 192.168.10.x. Since the default IP address of the TEW-637AP is 192.168.10.100, do not assign a static IP address of 192.168.10.100 on your computer's network adapter.

2. Open Internet Explorer and enter http://192.168.10.100 into the address bar.

5. ! followed the Quick Installation Guide and setup a new password. When I log

in to the browser configuration an access error message appears. What should |

The following are some general wireless tips to help minimize the impact of interference within an environment.

Assign your network a unique SSID Do not use anything that would be identifing Ike “Smith Family Network”. Choose something that you would easily identify when searching for available wireless networks.

Do not turn off the SSID broadcast The SSID broadcast is intended to be on and tuming i off can cause connectiity issues. The preferred method of securing a wireless network is to choose a strong form of encryption with a strong and varied encryption key.

Note: after setting up the SSID, encryption type and encryption key/passphrase, please make a note of them for future reference. You will need this information to connect your wireless computers to the wireless router/access point.

Change the channel Most wireless access points and routers are defaulted to channel 6. If you have a site survey tool that wil display the channels you can plan your channel selection around neighboring access points to minimize interference from them. If your site survey tool does not display the channel try using channels 1 or 11.

I you are using 802 in you should be securing the network with WPA2 security.

Note: Due to Wi-Fi certication considerations if you choose WEP, WPA or WPA2-TKIP encryption this device may operate in legacy wireless mode (802.11b/g). You may not get 802 l'in performance as these forms of encryption are not supported by the 802.11n specification.

Please also make sure that the wireless hardware is not placed in any type of shelving or enclosures.

Avoid stacking hardware on top of each other to prevent overheating issues Maintain enough free space around the hardware for good ventilation and airlow. There should also be plenty of free space around the antennas to allow the wireless signal to propagate

There are a number of other environmental factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.

1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather than at

an angle. The more material he signal has to pass through the more signal you wil lose.

2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the range of

a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will minimize the amount of obstructions between them.

3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through less

dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass or even fumiture may block or degrade the signal.

4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the wireless

adapter site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for your wireless devices.

5.Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF noise, such 28 microwaves, HAM radios, Walkie-Talkies and baby monitors:

6. Any device operating on the 2 4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices such as 2.AGHz cordiess phones or other wireless remotes operating on the 2.4GHz frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal. Although the phone may not be in use, the base

can st transmit wireless signals. Move the phone's base station as far away as possible from your wireless devices.

If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing

additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide the necessary coverage depending on the environment.
