Connecting a Windows 7 Computer with Built-in Wireless Capabilities

1
From the taskbar, click on the wireless symbol.
2
In the wireless network options box, highlight the Wireless Network name (SSID) you gave
your wireless network in Step 3 of the Setup Wizard. If you did not change the Wireless
Network (SSID), select the default name Zoom. If you want to automatically connect to the
Wireless-N 4-port Router, click the Connect Automatically box. Then click Connect.
•
If you enabled security in Step 3 of the Setup Wizard, enter the security key in
the next dialog box and click Connect.
•
Otherwise if your desired network is unsecured, in the message box select
Connect Anyway.
When you click on the wireless network option box, Windows will scan for available networks.
More than one wireless network may appear in the list. These are other wireless networks that
are within range of your network. Your neighbors, for instance, may be within range of your
network. Each wireless network has a channel associated with it. We recommend there be at
least a five-channel difference between your network and those of your neighbors. Having less
than a five-channel difference may result in interference with your connection. By default, the
Wireless-N 4-port Router uses channel 10. If you need to change this channel, you must do so
using the Wireless Setup page of the Zoom Configuration Manager. After logging in,
select Wireless from the left-hand menu. On the Wireless page you can select a new channel
from the drop-down menu.
To disconnect from the current network:
1
Left-click the wireless network icon in the notification area of the Windows taskbar.
2
Right-click your network ID and select Disconnect.
