router up and running in a few minutes. Please complete each stage of these

Router should be located in a central position relative to the wireless PCs that will
connect to it. A suitable location might be on a high shelf or a similar
position that allows good wireless coverage from the Router to the wireless PCs.
To meet the FCC wireless radiation exposure regulations, the Router should
be located in a position to maintain a minimum distance of 20cm (8 inches)
from any personnel.
Connect all of the computers that you want to share

on your internet connection to your router. During
the initial setup, SMC recommend that the Router is
configured from a wired Ethernet PC as shown in the
diagram.

security of your wireless network. Note that if you change the wireless
settings (e.g. SSID or WEP) of your Router from a wireless PC, then you
may lose contact with your Router. To re-establish the wireless connection,
change the wireless settings of your PC to be the same as the Router.
