Chapter 4: Connecting the Wireless-G Range Expander
Since the Range Expander does not physically connect to your network, through cables, etc., connection is very
simple.
1. Locate an optimum location for the Range Expander. The best placement is usually at the edge of your
wireless network.
2. Fix the direction of the antenna. Try to place it in a position that will best cover your wireless network.
Normally, the higher you place the Range Expander’s antenna, the better the performance will be. The
antenna's position enhances the receiving sensitivity.
3. Connect the appropriate power plate and connect it to a power outlet. You should always plug your
networking gear into a surge protector.
4. If you would like to use the Range Expander’s Auto configuration button, disable your wireless network’s WEP
security setting. Then, press the Auto configuration button. It will then automatically detect your wireless
network and configure itself with those settings. Once this is done, you can once again enable WEP security.
If you would rather configure the Range Expander with the Setup Wizard included, you can leave WEP security
in place. WEP Security should always be enabled.
Now that the hardware installation is complete, proceed to Chapter 5: Setting Up the Wireless-G Range Expander,
for directions on how to set up the Range Expander with the Setup Wizard.
