If the Wireless Portable Router is configured correctly, check your Internet
connection (DSL/Cable modem etc) to see that it is working correctly.
Problem 2:
Some applications do not run properly when using the Wireless Portable Router.

security enabled, and the key must be matched.

distance and the environment. To obtain the highest possible connection speed, you
can experiment with the following:
•
