TROUBLESHOOTING, SUPPORT, AND WARRANTY

I am having difficulty setting up Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security on my Router..

1..Log in to your Router. Visit “http://router/” or “http://192.168.2.1” with your web browser. Click “Security” under the WiFi heading. You should now be on the Security page.

2..Under Security Mode, select the “128-bit WEP” option.

3..You may type in a WEP key manually, or generate one from a passphrase. Type a phrase in the “Passphrase” field and click the “Generate” button. A WEP key is composed of 26 hexadecimal digits (0–9, A–F). For example, C3 03 0F AF 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 EE 74 is a valid 128-bit WEP key.

4..Click “Save” to finish. Your wireless activity is now encrypted. Each computer using your wireless network will need to use the new key.

Note: If you are configuring the Router over a wireless connection, you will have to re-connect to the Router after changing any security settings.

Note: Some older networking hardware supports only 64-bit WEP encryption. If your older computers cannot connect to your network, try 64-bit WEP.

A disk I plugged into the USB port is not showing up on my computer..

1..Try unplugging and re-plugging the disk. Please check that the USB connector is firmly plugged into the Router.

2..If your disk has an optional power supply, please use it while the disk is attached to your Router.

3..The Router supports FAT16, FAT32-, or NTFS-formatted disks. Disks in other formats will not appear in the Finder (Mac OS X) or Windows Internet Explorer®.

A disk I plugged into the USB port is not coming on or remains on only for a short time..

Some drives require more power than the Router’s USB port provides. If your disk has an optional power supply, please use it while the disk is attached to your Router.
