Installation Considerations
The TEW-640MB Gaming Adapter allows you to access your network by using a wireless
connection from virtually anywhere within its operating range. Keep in mind that 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 TEW-640MB and other network devices
to a minimum - each wall or ceiling can reduce your wireless products 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 can impede the wireless signal - a solid metal door or aluminum studs may
have a negative effect on range. Try to position wireless devices and computers with wireless
adapters so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways and not other materials.
4. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet or 1-2 meters) from electrical devices or appliances
that generate extreme RF noise.

WEP (Open or Shared)
A method of encrypting data for wireless communication intended to provide the same
level of privacy as a wired network. WEP is not as secure as WPA encryption. To gain
access to a WEP network, you must know the key. The key is a string of characters that
you create. When using WEP, you must determine the level of encryption. The type of
encryption determines the key length. 128-bit encryption requires a longer key than
64-bit encryption. Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using
characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that
is easier to remember. The ASCII string is converted to HEX for use over the network. Four
