Does your wireless device support the security that you are using for your wireless
•
network (WPA or WPA2)?
To check the wireless settings for the router, use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer
•
to a LAN port on the router. Then log in to the router and look on the dashboard on the
Basic Home screen:

you make changes.

Wireless Signal Strength

If your wireless device finds your network, but the signal strength is weak, check these
conditions:
Is your router too far from your computer, or too close? Place your computer near the
•
router, but at least 6 feet away, and see whether the signal strength improves.
Is your wireless signal blocked by objects between the router and your computer?
