your new product. You will need to know this to properly install your software.
Step One: Connect your modem to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router
Cable or DSL modem users:
•Turn off your computer and your cable or DSL modem.
•Attach both antennas to the Wireless Turbo Access
Point & Router.
•Locate the Ethernet cable from your cable or DSL
modem that is connected to your computer’s Ethernet
adapter.
•Disconnect that Ethernet cable from your computer’s
Ethernet adapter, and connect it to the WAN port on the
rear of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
Note: Some cable or DSL modems can be connected using either a USB cable or an Ether-
net cable. To connect your cable or DSL modem to the Wireless Turbo Access Point &
Router, you must use an Ethernet cable.
Step Two: Connect your Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router to your com-
puter and the power supply
To make a wireless connection: Make sure
each wireless card that will be connected to
the network is set to Infrastructure mode. If
necessary, refer to your Wireless Card man-
ual to determine how to change this setting.

2
To make an Ethernet connection: Connect one end of the
supplied Ethernet cable to your computer’s Ethernet
adapter. Connect the other end to one of the LAN ports on
the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
All Users:
Turn on your cable or DSL modem. Connect the included
power adapter to the power socket on the Wireless Turbo
Access Point & Router. Plug the power adapter into a stan-
dard power outlet. Turn on your computer.
Step Three: Configure the basic connection settings
If you use a login application to connect to the Internet, refer to Appendix A in the Appendixes
chapter of the User Guide on the Installation CD-ROM.
If you do not use a login application to connect to the Internet or if you ha e already configured
the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router, launch a Web browser and register your product at
www.usr.com/productreg If the page loads, you are finished with the installation procedure.
Note: Refer to the “Configuring the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router” section in the

Register your product
•At the Installation CD-ROM interface, click the Support link. Click Registration and Warranty
and then click http://www.usr.com/productreg If the Installation CD-ROM interface does not run
automatically, click Windows Start and then click Run. In the “Run” dialog box, type
D:\setup.exe. If your CD-ROM dri e uses a different letter, type that letter in place of “D.”
•Or register your product online at http://www.usr.com/productreg
If you ha e any difficulties connecting to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router, check the fol-
lowing top three issues and see if they apply to your situation.
•If you are attempting to create a wireless connection but cannot connect to the Wireless Turbo
Access Point & Router, make sure each wireless card is set to Infrastructure mode. If the wire-
less cards are set to 802.11g Adhoc mode, you will not be able to connect to the Wireless Turbo
Access Point & Router. When each wireless card is set to Infrastructure mode, it should auto-
matically connect to the Access Point of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router. If the wire-
less cards do not automatically connect, rescan until they detect the Wireless Turbo Access
Point & Router and connect.
•If you create a wireless connection to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router but are experi-
encing poor link quality, check the positioning of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
Long distances, multiple floors, or steel or concrete walls can diminish the link quality. If possi-
ble, reposition the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router to reduce the effect of any of these
obstacles.
• If you ha e the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router properly connected and can access the
Internet but are experiencing difficulties connecting with special applications (e.g., ICQ, Bat-
tle.net, etc.), you must assign specific ports in order to bypass the firewall function. For more
information about how to configure this function, refer to the “Special Applications” section
within the “Configuring the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router” chapter of the User Guide.

Troubleshooting
I am no longer able to access the Internet.
Possible Solution:
Make sure that the power cord and all the Ethernet cables are connected correctly. This includes
the cables connecting the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router, the modem, and all the comput-
ers.
Possible Solution:
Make sure that your computer is using an IP address that is within the default range of
192.168.123.xxx. Make sure the address of the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The Default Gate-
way should be the IP address of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router, which is
192.168.123.254. To erify all of these settings, perform the following steps:
Windows 95, 98, or Me Users: Click Windows Start and then Run. Type
winipcfg and click OK. Check the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and DNS
ser er data to make sure they are correct. If the information is not correct, click
Release All and then click Renew All.
Windows NT, 2000, or XP Users: Click Windows Start and then Run. Type cmd and
click OK. At the DOS prompt, type ipconfig /all. Check the IP Address, Subnet Mask,
Default Gateway, and DNS ser er data to make sure they are correct. If the information
is not correct, type ipconfig /release and press ENTER. Then, type ipconfig /renew
and press ENTER.
Possible Solution:
If 256-bit key encryption is selected, each wireless card or adapter must support 256-bit encryp-
tion. If you are using a Wireless PC Card or PCI Adapter that does not support 256-bit encryption,
you will not be able to connect to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
Possible Solution:
If you ha e a Static IP address, make sure that you ha e correctly performed all of the steps in
Appendix A or Appendix B of the “Appendixes” section of the User Guide on the Installation CD-
ROM. If you ha e a Static IP address and did not configure all of the IP properties correctly for
your computer, you will not be able to connect to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
Possible Solution:
You need to erify the connection setting of your Web browser and that the HTTP Proxy feature of
your Web browser is disabled. You need to do this so that your Web browser can read the config-
uration pages inside your Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router. Launch your Web browser.
Internet Explorer users: Click Tools, Internet Options, and then the Connections tab. Select
Never dial a connection, click Apply, and then click OK. Click Tools again, then click Internet
Options. Click the Connections tab, and click the LAN Settings button. Clear all the check
boxes and click OK. Click OK to close Internet Options.
Netscape Navigator users: Click Edit, Preferences, and then double-click Advanced in the
Category window. Click Proxies, select Direct connection to the Internet, and then click OK.
Click Edit again, then click Preferences. Under Category, double-click Advanced, then click
Proxies. Select Direct connection to the Internet and click OK.

My Configuration Utility is not responding, but I can still access the Internet.
Possible Solution:
If your Configuration Utility stops responding, unplug and then plug back in the power supply of
the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router. This will reboot the Wireless Turbo Access Point &
Router. If you are still unable to communicate with the Configuration Utility, press in and hold the
RESET button. While holding the RESET button, unplug then plug back in the power supply. When
the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router has power again, continue to hold the RESET button for
about fi e seconds to reset the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router to the factory default set-
tings. If you applied any personal configuration settings, you will need to make the changes
again.
I am unable to connect to the wireless function of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
Possible Solution:
Be certain that you ha e each Wireless PC Card set to Infrastructure mode. If your Wireless PC
Cards or PCI Adapters are set to 802.11g AdHoc mode, you will not be able to use the wireless
function. Refer to the User Guide on the Installation CD-ROM for your Wireless PC Card to deter-
mine how to change this setting.
Note: 802.11g Ad-Hoc mode is used for peer-to-peer network configurations. Infrastruc-
ture mode is used to add an Access Point to the network configuration.
My computer does not recognise the wireless function of the Wireless Turbo Access Point &
Router after I changed the settings.
Possible Solution:
Ensure that you are contacting the correct Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router by erifying the
correct MAC address. Ensure that the correct passphrase and encryption option are being used. If
you changed the settings in the configuration of the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router, you
must also change the settings of e ery Wireless PC Card or PCI Adapter attached to this network.
The settings of the Wireless PC Cards or PCI Adapters must match the new settings of the Wire-
less Turbo Access Point & Router.
I cannot achieve 54 Mbps connections to the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router.
Possible Solution:
Make sure the wireless products you are using to connect to the Wireless Turbo Access Point &
Router support 54 Mbps speeds. 54 Mbps wireless products must be used in order to connect to
the Wireless Turbo Access Point & Router at a speed of 54 Mbps. Launch the Configuration Utility
and manually set the connection speed to 54 Mbps. If you are using non-U.S. Robotics wireless
products, you may need to upgrade the firmware for those products in order to support 54 Mbps
connections.
Possible Solution:
Low connection speed or range can also be caused by en ironmental interference. Try to mo e
the product around to impro e the link quality. In addition, keep in mind that other factors such
as lead based paint, concrete walls, and electronic items such as 2.4G phones may effect your
wireless range.
