Problem 2:
Some applications do not run properly when using the WBR-3600
Router
The WBR-3600 Router processes the data passing through it, so it is
Solution 2:
not transparent.
For incoming connections, you must use the Virtual Server or Firewall
Rules to specify the PC which will receive the incoming traffic.
You can also use the DMZ function. This should work with almost every
application, but:
Wireless Access
Problem 1:
My PC can't locate the Wireless Access Point.
Check the following.
Solution 1:
Problem 2:
Wireless connection speed is very slow.
The wireless system will connect at the highest possible speed, de-
Solution 2:
pending on the distance and the environment. To obtain the highest
possible connection speed, you can experiment with the following:
correctly.
It is a security risk, since the firewall is disabled.
Only one (1) PC can use this feature.
Your PC is set to Infrastructure Mode. (Access Points are always in
Infrastructure Mode)
The SSID on your PC and the Wireless Access Point are the same.
Remember that the SSID is case-sensitive. So, for example
"Workgroup" does NOT match "workgroup".
Both your PC and the WBR-3600 Router must have the same
setting for WEP. The default setting for the WBR-3600 Router is
disabled, so your wireless station should also have WEP disabled.
If WEP is enabled on the WBR-3600 Router, your PC must have
WEP enabled, and the key must match.
If the WBR-3600 Router's Wireless screen is set to Allow Trusted
PCs only, then each of your Wireless stations must have been des-
ignated as "Trusted", or the Wireless station will be blocked.
To see if radio interference is causing a problem, see if connection
is possible when close to the WBR-3600 Router. Remember that
the connection range can be as little as 100 feet in poor environ-
ments.
WBR-3600 Router location.
Try adjusting the location and orientation of the WBR-3600 Router.
Wireless Channel
If interference is the problem, changing to another channel may
show a marked improvement.
Radio Interference
Other devices may be causing interference. You can experiment by
switching other devices Off, and see if this helps. Any "noisy" devic-
es should be shielded or relocated.
RF Shielding
Your environment may tend to block transmission between the wire-
