Warning: The Wireless Router is already configured with the optimum settings. Do not alter these settings unless directed by NETGEAR support. Incorrect settings may disable the Wireless Router unexpectedly.
Wireless Router Settings
Enable Wireless Router Radio
The Wireless Access Point Router of this router can be enabled or disabled to allow wireless access. The wireless icon on the front of the router will also display the current status of the Wireless Access Point to let you know if it is disabled or enabled. If Enabled, wireless stations will be able to access the Internet. If Disabled, wireless stations will not be able to access the Internet.
Enable SSID Broadcast
If Enabled, the Wireless RouterSSID will broadcast its name (SSID) to all Wireless Stations. Stations which have no SSID (or a "null" value) can then adopt the correct SSID for connections to this Access Point.
Enable WMM
WMM (Wireless Multimedia) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, like video or audio, will have a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM.
Fragmentation Threshold, CTS/RTS Threshold, Preamble Mode
These settings are reserved for wireless testing and advanced configuration only. Do not change these settings.
WPS Settings
Router's PIN
This is the PIN number you use on a registrar (e.g. from the Network Explorer on a Vista Windows PC)
to configure the router's wireless settings through WPS.
You can also find the PIN on the router's product label too.
Disable Router's PIN
Only when the router's PIN is enabled, you can configure the router's wireless settings or add a wireless client through WPS with the router's PIN number. This Router's PIN function may temporarily be disabled when the router detects suspicous attemtps to break into the router's wireless settings by using the router's PIN through WPS. Users can manually enable this function by unchecking the option and clicking the Apply button.
Keep Existing Wireless Settings
This shows whether the router is in the WPS Configured state.
If the this option is not checked, adding a new wireless client will change the router's wireless
settings to an automacically generated random SSID and security key. Besides, if this option is checked,
some external registrar (e.g. Network Explorer on Vista Windows) may not see the router.
Configuring basic wireless settings from the router's management GUI makes this option checked.
Wireless Card Access List
By default, any wireless PC that is configured with the correct SSID will be allowed access to your wireless network. For increased security, you can restrict access to the wireless network to only allow specific PCs based on their MAC addresses. From the Wireless Settings menu, click the Setup Access List button to display the Wireless Access List menu.
