No internet connection?
If you have connected the modem to your Jensen router the way as described on page 2 and still won't
get an internet connection, it could be because of the way the modem works.
In many cases it is limited how many IP addresses the modem delivers, and this can lead to the issue that the
Jensen router is unable to deliver the IP address from the modem
This happens most commonly in cases when internet is delivered through Cable-TV
We recommend that you do the following:
Disconnect the power from both the Jensen router and the
internet modem and wait for 10 seconds
Make sure the cable from the modem is connected to
the internet port labeled INTERNET
Connect the power to the Jensen router and wait 1 minute
before proceeding.
Connect the power to the internet modem and wait until the
modem has connected itself to the service provider
(about 1-2 minutes)
Connect the computer (or the device you wish to use)
to the Jensen router either wirelessly or with cable in
the ports 1, 2, 3, or 4
If you decide to connect wirelessly, you will find
the network name (SSID) and password under the router.

How to improve your wireless network (page 1 of 4)
Wireless networks are virtually become a standard in most homes.
We see that people now are more often getting problems with unstable wireless network.
The resson for an unstable wireless network are many.
On the page 12 to 15 you can get some useful tip on how to improve your wireless network.
Placement of the router
Finding a good placement for the router is very important for the quality/performance of the
wireless network. Walls (plaster or brick walls ), furniture, people etc. will weaken the signal to
some degree.
Change channel on the router
If you live in urban areas or areas with many wireless networks it is a good chance that your router
are using the same channel as one or more routers in the neighborhood.
By changing to a channel with less traffic you can get far better performance / coverage.
So, which channel is the best one to use? It is difficult to give an easy answer to this, as it totally depends
on which channel is in use by the other networks in the area.
To help find the best channel we recommend to use software / apps (see list below) that are made for
this purpose. Most of these apps can show you which channel that is recommended. We recommend that
you select the channel on which the fewest of the other networks are using.

Adjust the antenna(s)
The normal thing to do is to point the antenna in an upward position, but in some situations you can get
better coverage and/or performance by adjusting the angle of the antenna.
* Place your router high up. On top of a a shelf etc.
* Place it in a central location of the house.
* Adjust the angle of antenna to improve signal strength.
* Make sure the antennas is screwed on tightly.
RECOMMENDED DO NOT
* Do not «hide» the router by putting it into drawers etc.
* Avoid placing router near reflective surfaces if possible.
Surfaces like windows, mirrors at metal cabinets will
have an impact on the wireless signals.
* Do not place the router near TV, speakers etc.
* Avoid placing the router near other equipment using
2.4GHz like cordless phones, babycall etc.

What is Dual-Band ?
Wireless routers are devided into single-band or dual-band type of router, where single-band means that
it only uses the 2.4Ghz frequncy, where as the dual-band type uses both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency.
Which of the 2.4GHz or 5GHz is best to use?
Normally the 2.4GHz give you the best range, while 5GHz gives the best performance.
The challenge of getting a stable wireless network (especially at 2.4GHz) is that "everyone" has it, and
since wireless network is a shared resource, interference often occures in places where there are many
networks within the same area. In addition the 2.4GHz frequency is used by other types of equipment
such as wireless toys (RC), cameras, alarms etc., which also increases the risk of interference.
We recommend that you connect your older devices to the 2.4Ghz network and then use the 5GHz for the
newer ones. This will ensure the best performance in your network.
Why cannot my device connect to the 5GHz network?
There are devices that only support the 2.4GHz frequency and therefor cannot connect to a 5GHz network.
In order for a device to connect to a 5GHz network it nead to support on of these standards 802.11 a, n or ac.
Most of the products currently in shops is Dual-Band compliant, but if you have an older computer it most
likely only support the 2.4GHz frequency.
Try use the 5GHz network instead of 2.4GHz
If you got a Dual-Band router you have two wireless networks to choose from.
The 5GHz are often a better choise than 2.4GHz becuase of less interference than the 2.4GHz.

What range can I expect from my wireless router?
The range of the wireless signals depends on various factors such as walls, floor differentiate etc.,
the location of the router (see next page), the distance between the router and where you are, and
interference from other wireless networks / devices.
In addition, the different devices (e. g. PC, smartphone, tablet, etc.) you connect to your wireless network
all has different quality of antenna / signal reception. Because of this you will see different signals/performace
on different devices at the same location in the house.
What can I do to increase the range of my wireless network?
Interference from other wireless network is the most common cause of poor range / performance.
A solution to this is to change the channel on your router (See page 16 for how to change the channel).
If changing channel does not help, another solution could be using a wireless repeater.
A wireless repeater is an independent unit that is easily set up on a PC / Smartphone etc.
After the setup is done, just place the repeater in the area you want increased coverage (*).
*) It is important that the repeater is placed somewhere it can receive good signals from the wireless router.

Is it possible to use a wireless router as a repeater/extender?
Yes, some of our wireless routers have a feature called «Universal Repeater». In this mode the router
is configured to receive signals from the existing wireless network and then to send it out again.
The following Jensen routers support universal repeater mode: Air: Link 7000AC, Lynx 5000 and
Air: Link 1000AC. On our download page http://www.jensenofscandinavia.com/nb/downloads/ you will find
PDF documents with instructions on how to setup the Universal repeater.

How to improve your wireless network (page 4 of 4)
To achieve high speed wireless routers use channel bonding, which means the router trasmits on
multiple channels simultaneously. Doing this the router use more of the available channels, and this
can lead to interference, because other networks then will use some of the same channels.
The setting that controls the number of channels (channel bonding) is called "Channel bandwidth."
For 2.4GHz you can choose between 20MHz (one channel) or 40MHz (two channels). For the 5GHz
you can also select 20/40MHz, but in addition you also have 80MHz (four channels).
If you have tried changing the channel on your router and still have an unstable wireless network we
recommend that you try to set the router to only transmit on one channel (20MHz) by following
below steps.
Login to router menu

How to setup guest network
Guest network is a function where the router creates an extra wireless network
In which devices connected only get access to the internet. Devices (like PC, tablets etc.)
that are connected to the guest network are blocked from the local network, so they can't
access local network resources like network hard drives, servers, printers, cameras,
PCs etc.
