RangePlus Wireless Notebook Adapter
Chapter 1:
Product Overview
Thank you for choosing the RangePlus Wireless Notebook
Adapter. The RangePlus Wireless Notebook Adapter uses
the very latest wireless networking technology to achieve
extended range. Unlike ordinary wireless networking
technologies that are confused by signal reflections,
MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range
and reduce “dead spots” in the wireless coverage area.
The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless
connections much farther than standard Wireless-G. And
with MIMO, the farther away you are, the more speed
advantage you get. It works great with standard Wireless-
G and -B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless
link use RangePlus technology, the throughput can be
increased even more by using twice as much radio band.
Once you’re connected, you can keep in touch with your
e-mail, access the Internet, and share files and other
resources such as printers and network storage with other
computers on the network, wherever you wander. At home,
you can surf the web or use instant messaging to chat
with friends while sitting out on the patio. You’ll also be
able to connect with any of the growing number of public
hotspots springing up in coffee shops, airport lounges,
hotels and convention centers. Your wireless connection
is protected by industrial-strength WPA2 encryption. The
included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring
the adapter to your network’s settings, step by step.

Chapter 2 Wireless Security Checklist

RangePlus Wireless Notebook Adapter
Chapter 2:
Wireless Security Checklist
Wireless networks are convenient and easy to install, so
homes with high-speed Internet access are adopting them
at a rapid pace. Because wireless networking operates by
sending information over radio waves, it can be more
vulnerable to intruders than a traditional wired network.
Like signals from your cellular or cordless phones, signals
from your wireless network can also be intercepted. Since
you cannot physically prevent someone from connecting
to your wireless network, you need to take some additional
steps to keep your network secure.
1. Change the default wireless
network name or SSID
Wireless devices have a default wireless network name
or Service Set Identifier (SSID) set by the factory. This
is the name of your wireless network, and can be up
to 32 characters in length. Linksys wireless products
use linksys as the default wireless network name. You
should change the wireless network name to something
unique to distinguish your wireless network from other
wireless networks that may exist around you, but do not
use personal information (such as your Social Security
number) because this information may be available for
anyone to see when browsing for wireless networks.
2. Change the default password
For wireless products such as access points and routers,
you will be asked for a password when you want to change
their settings. These devices have a default password set
by the factory. The Linksys default password is admin.
Hackers know these defaults and may try to use them
to access your wireless device and change your network
settings. To thwart any unauthorized changes, customize
the device’s password so it will be hard to guess.
3. Enable MAC address filtering
Linksys routers give you the ability to enable Media Access
Control (MAC) address filtering. The MAC address is a
unique series of numbers and letters assigned to every
networking device. With MAC address filtering enabled,
wireless network access is provided solely for wireless
devices with specific MAC addresses. For example, you can
specify the MAC address of each computer in your home
so that only those computers can access your wireless
network.
4. Enable encryption
Encryption protects data transmitted over a wireless
network. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) and Wired
Equivalency Privacy (WEP) offer different levels of security
for wireless communication.
A network encrypted with WPA/WPA2 is more secure
than a network encrypted with WEP, because WPA/WPA2
uses dynamic key encryption. To protect the information
as it passes over the airwaves, you should enable the
highest level of encryption supported by your network
equipment.
WEP is an older encryption standard and may be the
only option available on some older devices that do not
support WPA.
General Network Security Guidelines
Wireless network security is useless if the underlying
network is not secure.
Password protect all computers on the network and
individually password protect sensitive files.
Change passwords on a regular basis.
Install anti-virus software and personal firewall
software.
Disable file sharing (peer-to-peer). Some applications
may open file sharing without your consent and/or
knowledge.
Additional Security Tips
Keep wireless routers, access points, or gateways away
from exterior walls and windows.
Turn wireless routers, access points, or gateways
off when they are not being used (at night, during
vacations).
Use strong passphrases that are at least eight characters
in length. Combine letters and numbers to avoid using
standard words that can be found in the dictionary.
