Important Information for Wireless Products
Linksys wants to make wireless networking as safe and easy for you as possible. So, please keep the following
points in mind whenever setting up or using your wireless network.
1. Performance.
The actual performance of your wireless network depends on a number of factors, including:
In an Infrastructure environment, your distance from the access point. As you get farther away, the transmission
speed will decrease.
Structural interference. The shape of your building or structure, the type of construction, and the building
materials used may have an adverse impact on signal quality and speed.
The placement and orientation of the wireless devices.
2. Interference.
Any device operating in the 2.4 GHz spectrum may cause network interference with a 802.11b wireless device.
Some devices that may prove troublesome include 2.4 GHz cordless phones, microwave ovens, adjacent public
hotspots, and neighboring 802.11b wireless LANs.
3. Security.
The current generation of Linksys products provide several network security features, but they require specific
action on your part for implementation.
While the following is a complete list, steps A through E should, at least, be followed:
A. Change the default SSID.
B. Disable SSID Broadcasts.
C. Change the default password for the Administrator account.
D. Enable MAC Address Filtering.
