6.3.2 Connecting PCs via Wireless
IMPORTANT: If you are connecting to the Modem via a wireless network adapter, the SSID must be the same for
both the Modem and your PC’s wireless network adapter. The default SSID for the Modem is the serial number of
the unit (located below the bar code on the bottom of the unit and also on the Westell shipping carton). Locate and
run the utility software provided with your PC’s Wireless network adapter and enter the SSID value. The PC’s
wireless network adapter must be configured with the SSID (in order to communicate with the Modem) before you
begin the account setup and configuration procedures. Later, for privacy you can change the SSID by following the
procedures outlined in section 15.10 (Wireless Configuration).
Client PCs can use any Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) 802.11b/g/g+ certified card to communicate with the Modem. The
Wireless card and Modem must use the same security code type. If you use WPA-PSK or WEP wireless security,
you must configure your computer’s wireless adapter for the security code that you use. You can access the
settings in the advanced properties of your wireless network adapter.
To network the Modem to additional computers in your home or office using a wireless installation, you will need to
confirm the following:
1. Ensure that an 802.11b/g wireless network adapter has been installed in each PC on your wireless network.
2. Install the appropriate drivers for your Wireless IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g adapter.

Authentication Type Factory Default = Open System
Possible Responses:
Open System: Open System authentication allows any station to associate with the
wireless network but only stations with the valid WEP key can send or receive data
from the Modem. Open System authentication is considered to be more secure than
Shared Key authentication.
Shared Key: Shared Key authentication requires the station to authenticate with the
Modem using the WEP key before it can associate with the wireless network.
Key Select Factory Default = Key 1
Select Key 1 to Key 4 as the WEP key to be used. Note: The key position must be the
same in both the Modem and the wireless station.
Key n
(where n is 1 - 4 for WEP and is
blank for WPA-PSK)
The WEP key is treated as either text or hexadecimal (hex) characters. The number of
characters is based on the key size selected. The key size 64 bit is either 5 text or 10
hex characters, 128 bit is either 13 text or 26 hex characters, and 256 bit is either 29
text or 58 hex characters. Hexadecimal characters are 0-9 and A-F (or a-f). This key
must be the same in both the Modem and the station. Some station cards use a “Pass
Phrase.” This is not the same as “text” and should not be used.

entered in both the wireless Modem and the wireless station. The more random your WPA
Shared Key, the more secure it is.
WPA Group
Rekey Interval The number of seconds between rekeying the WPA group key. A value of “0” means that
rekeying is disabled. The Shared Key is the initial key and new keys are created and used, based
on that key, at each Rekey Interval.

following:
1. Right click on the QIII icon
2. Choose "Properties"
3. In the Target field you'll see a line like "C:\Program Files\Quake III
Arena\quake3.exe"
4. Add the Quake III net_port command to specify a unique
communication port for each system. The complete field should look
like this: "C:\Program Files\Quake III Arena\quake3.exe" +set
net_port 27660
5. Click OK.
6. Repeat for each system behind the NAT, adding one to the net_port
selected (27660,27661,27662)
