Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router Product Overview Chapter 1 Horizontal Placement Follow these instructions: The Router has four rubber feet on its bottom panel. Place the Router on a level surface near an electrical outlet. 1. Determine where you want to mount the Router. Make sure that the wall you use is smooth, flat, dry, and sturdy. Also make sure the location is within reach of an electrical outlet. 2. Drill two holes into the wall. Make sure the holes are 175.56 mm (6.91 inches) apart. 3. Insert a screw into each hole and leave 3 mm (0.12 inches) of its head exposed. 4. Maneuver the Router so the wall-mount slots line up with the two screws. 5. Place the wall-mount slots over the screws and slide the Router down until the screws fit snugly into the wall-mount slots. Wall-Mounting Placement The Router has two wall-mount slots on its bottom panel. The distance between the slots is 175.56 mm (6.91 inches). Two screws are needed to mount the Router. 4-5 mm 1-1.5 mm 2.5-3.0 mm Suggested Mounting Hardware ††Note: Mounting hardware illustrations are not true to scale. NOTE: Linksys is not responsible for damages incurred by unsecure wall-mounting hardware. 175.56 mm Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router Wireless Security Checklist Chapter 2 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. Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router 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.

Simultaneous Dual-N Band Wireless Router DTIM Interval This value, between 3 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM field is a countdown field informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the Router has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Its clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 3. 17 Advanced Configuration Chapter 3 Fragmentation Threshold This value specifies the maximum size for a packet before data is fragmented into multiple packets. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the Fragmentation Threshold. Setting the Fragmentation Threshold too low may result in poor network performance. Only minor reduction of the default value is recommended. In most cases, it should remain at its default value of 2346. RTS Threshold Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor reduction of the default value, 2347, is recommended. If a network packet is smaller than the preset RTS threshold size, the RTS/CTS mechanism will not be enabled. The Router sends Request to Send (RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. The RTS Threshold value should remain at its default value of 2347. Click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.
