Installation
Placement of the router is very important. Do not place the router in an enclosed
area such as a closet, cabinet, or in the attic or garage.
Wireless Performance Considerations
The wireless router allows you to access your network using a wireless
connection from virtually anywhere within the operating range of your wireless
network. However, the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other
objects that the wireless signals must pass through, may limit the range. Typical
ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio
frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless
range is to follow these basic guidelines:
1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the router and other
network devices to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your
adapter’s range from 3-90 feet (1-30 meters.) Position your devices so
that the number of walls or ceilings is minimized.
2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 1.5
feet thick (.5 meters), at a 45-degree angle appears to be almost 3 feet
(1 meter) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 42 feet (14 meters)
thick! Position devices so that the signal will travel straight through a wall
or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.
3. Building Materials make a difference. A solid metal door or aluminum
studs may have a negative effect on range. Try to position access points,
wireless routers, and computers so that the signal passes through
drywall or open doorways. Materials and objects such as glass, steel,
metal, walls with insulation, water (fish tanks), mirrors, file cabinets, brick,
and concrete will degrade your wireless signal.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical
devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
5. If you are using 2.4GHz cordless phones or X-10 (wireless products such
as ceiling fans, lights, and home security systems), your wireless
connection may degrade dramatically or drop completely. Make sure

your 2.4GHz phone base is as far away from your wireless devices as
possible. The base transmits a signal even if the phone in not in use.
Hardware Installation
1. Turn off and unplug your cable or DSL broadband modem. This is
required.
2. Position your router close to your modem and a computer. Place the
router in an open area of your intended work area for better wireless
coverage.
3. Unplug the Ethernet cable from your modem (or existing router if
upgrading) that is connected to your computer. Plug it into the LAN port
labeled 1 on the back of your router. The router is now connected to your
computer.
4. Plug one end of the included blue Ethernet cable that came with your
router into the yellow port labeled WAN on the back of the router. Plug
the other end of this cable into the Ethernet port on your modem.
5. Reconnect the power adapter to your cable or DSL broadband modem
and wait for two minutes.
6. Connect the supplied power adapter into the power port on the back of
the router and then plug it into a power outlet or surge protector. Press
the power button and verify that the power LED is lit. Allow 1 minute for
the router to boot up.
7. If you are connecting to a Broadband service that uses a dynamic
connection (not PPPoE), you may be online already. Try opening a web
browser and enter a web site. If a solid light indicates connection on the
Internet port and the router can connect to the Internet. If the LED is
orange, the connection is good but the router cannot connect to the
Internet.
Connect to an Existing Router
Note: It is strongly recommended to replace your existing router with the
TEW-733GR instead of using both. If your modem is a combo router, you
may want to contact your ISP or manufacturer’s user guide to put the
router into Bridge mode, which will ‘turn off ’ the router (NAT ) functions.
If you are connecting the TEW-733GR router to an existing router to use as a
wireless access point and/or switch, you will have to do the following to the
TEW-733GR before connecting it to your network:
• Disable UPnP™
• Disable DHCP
• Change the LAN IP address to an available address on your network.
The LAN ports on the router cannot accept a DHCP address from your
other router.
To connect to another router, please follow the steps below:
1. Plug the power into the router. Connect one of your computers to the
router (LAN port) using an Ethernet cable. Make sure your IP address on
the computer is 192.168.10.xxx (where xxx is between 2 and 254).
Please see the Networking Basics section for more information. If you
need to change the settings, write down your existing settings before
making any changes. In most cases, your computer should be set to
receive an IP address automatically in which case you will not have to do
anything to your computer.
2. Open a web browser, enter http://192.168.10.1 and press <Enter>. When
the login window appears, set the user name to admin and type the
password (Web password) that can be found on the label at the bottom
of the Router. Click Login to continue.
3. Click Access > Advanced Network. Uncheck the Enable UPnP check
box. Click Save Settings to continue.
4. Click Main > LAN. Uncheck the Enable DHCP Server check box. Click
Save Settings to continue.
5. Under Router Settings, enter an available IP address and the subnet
mask of your network. Click Save Settings to save your settings. Use
this new IP address to access the configuration utility of the router in the
future. Close the browser and change your computer’s IP settings back
to the original values as in Step 1.
6. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the router and reconnect your
computer to your network.
7. Connect an Ethernet cable in one of the LAN ports of the router and
connect it to your other router. Do not plug anything into the Internet
(WAN) port of the router.
8. You may now use the other 3 LAN ports to connect other Ethernet
devices and computers. To configure your wireless network, open a web
browser and enter the IP address you assigned to the router. Refer to
the Configuration and Wireless Security sections for more information on
setting up your wireless network.

NetworkingBasics
After you installed your new network or wireless adapter, by default, the TCP/IP
settings should be set to obtain an IP address automatically from a DHCP server.
By default the DHCP server option on your router is enabled.
To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below:
• Click the Windows Start button and open the Run application.
• In the Open check box, type cmd and click OK.
• At the command prompt, type in the command ipconfig and press Enter.
This will display the IP address, Subnet Mask, and the Default Gateway
of your adapter. If the address is 0.0.0.0, it means that your network
adapter did not receive an IP address from the DHCP server. Check your
adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your router.
Some firewall software programs may block a DHCP request on newly
installed adapters.
Statically Assign an IP address
If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a
static IP address, please follow the steps below:

WirelessBasics
Wireless products are based on industry standards to provide easy-to-use and
compatible high-speed wireless connectivity within your home, business or public
access wireless networks. Strictly adhering to the IEEE standard, the wireless
family of products will allow you to securely access the data you want, when and
where you want it. You will be able to enjoy the freedom that wireless networking
delivers.
A wireless local area network (WLAN) is a cellular computer network that
transmits and receives data with radio signals instead of wires. Wireless LANs
are used increasingly in both home and office environments, and public areas
such as airports, coffee shops and universities. Innovative ways to utilize WLAN
technology are helping people to work and communicate more efficiently.
Increased mobility and the absence of cabling and other fixed infrastructure have
proven to be beneficial for many users.
Wireless users can use the same applications they use on a wired network.
Wireless adapter cards used on laptop and desktop systems support the same
protocols as Ethernet adapter cards.
Under many circumstances, it may be desirable for mobile network devices to
link to a conventional Ethernet LAN in order to use servers, printers or an Internet
connection supplied through the wired LAN. A Wireless Router is a device used
to provide this link.
What is Wireless?
Wireless or Wi-Fi technology is another way of connecting your computer to the
network without using wires. Wi-Fi uses radio frequency to connect wirelessly, so
you have the freedom to connect computers anywhere in your home or office
network.
How does Wireless work?
Wireless works similar to how cordless phone work, through radio signals to
transmit data from one point A to point B. But wireless technology has restrictions
as to how you can access the network. You must be within the wireless network
range area to be able to connect your computer. There are two different types of
wireless networks Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), and Wireless Personal
Area Network (WPAN).

Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)
In a wireless local area network, a device called an Access Point (AP) connects
computers to the network. The access point has a small antenna attached to it,
which allows it to transmit data back and forth over radio signals. With an indoor
access point as seen in the picture, the signal can travel up to 300 feet. With an
outdoor access point the signal can reach out up to 30 miles to serve places like
manufacturing plants, industrial locations, college and high school campuses,
airports, golf courses, and many other outdoor venues.
Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN)
Bluetooth is the industry standard wireless technology used for WPAN. Bluetooth
devices in WPAN operate in a range up to 30 feet away. Compared to WLAN the
speed and wireless operation range are both less than WLAN, but in return it
doesn’t use nearly as much power which makes it ideal for personal devices,
such as mobile phones, PDAs, headphones, laptops, speakers, and other
devices that operate on batteries.
Who uses wireless?
Wireless technology has become so popular in recent years that almost
everyone is using it, whether it’s for home, office, business, we have a wireless
solution for it.
Home
• Gives everyone at home broadband access.
• Surf the web, check email, instant message, etc…
• Gets rid of the cables around the house.
• Simple and easy to use.
Small Office and Home Office
• Stay on top of everything at home as you would at office.
• Remotely access your office network from home.
• Share Internet connection and printer with multiple computers.
• No need to dedicate office space.
Where is wireless used?
Wireless technology is expanding everywhere not just at home or office. People
like the freedom of mobility and it’s becoming so popular that more and more
public facilities now provide wireless access to attract people. The wireless
connection in public places is usually called “hotspots”.
Using a Wireless Cardbus Adapter with your laptop, you can access the hotspot
to connect to Internet from remote locations like: Airports, Hotels, Coffee Shops,
Libraries, Restaurants, and Convention Centers.
Wireless network is easy to setup, but if you’re installing it for the first time it
could be quite a task not knowing where to start. That’s why we’ve put together a
few setup steps and tips to help you through the process of setting up a wireless
network.
Tips
Here are a few things to keep in mind, when you install a wireless network.
Centralize your router or Access Point
Make sure you place the router/access point in a centralized location within your
network for the best performance. Try to place the router/access point as high as
possible in the room, so the signal gets dispersed throughout your home. If you
have a two-story home, you may need a repeater to boost the signal to extend
the range.
Eliminate Interference
Place home appliances such as cordless telephones, microwaves, and
televisions as far away as possible from the router/access point. This would
significantly reduce any interference that the appliances might cause since they
operate on same frequency.
Security
Don’t let your next-door neighbors or intruders connect to your wireless network.
Secure your wireless network by turning on the WPA or WEP security feature on
the router. Refer to product manual for detail information on how to set it up.
Wireless Modes
There are basically two modes of networking:
• Infrastructure – All wireless clients will connect to an access point or
wireless router.
• Ad-Hoc – Directly connecting to another computer, for peer-to-peer
communication, using wireless network adapters on each computer,
such as two or more wireless network Cardbus adapters.
![](/img.php?id=1958317&img=bg3b.png)
©Copyright2013TRENDnet.AllRightsReserved.
TRENDnetUser’sGuideTEW‐733GR
58
An Infrastructure network contains an Access Point or wireless router. All the
wireless devices, or clients, will connect to the wireless router or access point.
An Ad-Hoc network contains only clients, such as laptops with wireless Cardbus
adapters. All the adapters must be in Ad-Hoc mode to communicate.
WirelessSecurity
This section will show you the different levels of security you can use to protect
your data from intruders. The router offers wireless security options like
WPA/WPA2 PSK/EAP.
What is WPA?
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve
the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy).
The 2 major improvements over WEP:
• Improved data encryption through the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
(TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and, by
adding an integrity-checking feature, ensures that the keys haven’t been
tampered with. WPA2 is based on 802.11i and uses Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES) instead of TKIP.
• User authentication, which is generally missing in WEP, through the
extensible authentication protocol (EAP). WEP regulates access to a
wireless network based on a computer’s hardware-specific MAC address,
which is relatively simple to be sniffed out and stolen. EAP is built on a
more secure public-key encryption system to ensure that only authorized
network users can access the network.
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase or key to authenticate your wireless
connection. The key is an alpha-numeric password between 8 and 63 characters
long. The password can include symbols (!?*&_) and spaces. This key must be
the exact same key entered on your wireless router or access point.
WPA/WPA2 incorporates user authentication through the Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP). EAP is built on a more secure public key
encryption system to ensure that only authorized network users can access the
network.
FrequentlyAskedQuestions
What can I do if my Router is not working correctly?
There are a few quick steps you can take to try and resolve any issues:
• Check that all the cables are firmly connected at both ends.
• Check that all the corresponding LED indicators are on, especially the
Power, WAN, and LAN LED indicators.
• Ensure that the settings on the WAN Service page in the Web User
Interface are the same as the settings that have been provided to you by
your ISP.
Why can’t I get an Internet connection?
For ADSL ISP users, please contact your ISP to make sure the service has been
enabled/connected by your ISP and that your ISP username and password are
correct.
What can I do if I forgot my web UI login password?
If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this
process will change all your settings back to the factory defaults.
To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit.
With the router powered on, use a paperclip to hold the button down for 10-15
seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process.
Wait about 30 seconds to access the router. The default IP address is
192.168.10.1. When logging in, the username is “admin” and the password (Web
password) can be found on the label at the bottom of the Router.
