(3G21WB)

Increasing your wireless reception
If you are experiencing wireless reception drop outs or disconnections, another wireless
network or de ice may be broadcasting on the same wireless channel as your own network.
You can usually resol e this by changing the wireless channel in use on your network.
This guide will take you through the steps required to change the wireless channel in use.
1. Na igate to http://10.0.0.138 in a web browser.
2. Enter 'admin' as both the username and the password and click Ok.
3. Mouse o er 'Wifi' and select 'Configuration'.

4. Check the current channel used and select a different channel number. Where possible
use a channel at the opposite end of the scale. For example if the current channel
used is channel 11 try using channel 1 or 2.
5. Press Apply/Save.
6. Ha ing made changes to the settings of your 3G21WB router by changing the
wireless channel you will need to reconnect any wireless de ices connected to the
3G21WB using the new wireless settings. You will need to remo e the stored
settings of the SSID (network name) on your computer that has the pre ious
channel settings stored and then reconnect to the router using the new settings
broadcast by the router. Please see the 3G21WB Wireless Setup Guide if you need
instructions to do this.
If you are still experiencing wireless reception issues, there may be infrastructure (walls,
floors, wiring, etc) impeding your wireless signal. Please try mo ing the wireless de ice to
a position close to your modem / router and try connecting again.
