Wireless Configuration
This chapter describes how to configure the wireless features of your WGR101 wireless travel 
router. In planning your wireless network, you should consider the level of security required. You 
should also select the physical placement of your wireless travel router in order to maximize the 
network speed. For further information on wireless networking, refer to in 
Observe Performance, Placement, and Range Guidelines
The operating distance or range of your wireless connection can vary significantly based on the 
physical placement of the wireless travel router. The latency, data throughput performance, and 
notebook power consumption of wireless adapters also vary depending on your configuration 
choices.
For best results, place your WGR101:
Near the center of the area in which your computers will operate.
In an elevated location such as a high shelf where the wirelessly connected computers have 
line-of-sight access (even if through walls).
Away from sources of interference, such as computers, microwaves, and 2.4 GHz cordless 
phones.
Away from large metal surfaces.
The time it takes to establish a wireless connection can vary depending on both your security 
settings and placement. WEP connections can take slightly longer to establish. Also, WEP 
encryption can consume more battery power on a notebook computer.
Note: 
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance 
degradation or inability to wirelessly connect to the router. For complete range/
performance specifications, please see
