Experiment with more than one of the available channels in order to find
the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighboring cordless
phones or other wireless devices.
Use the detailed Site Survey and wireless channel information
included in your wireless router’s (or access point’s) user guide for
more information.
5. Secure Connections, VPNs, and AOL
®
Secure connections typically require a user name and password, and are
used where security is important. Secure connections include:
• Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections, often used to connect
remotely to an office network
• The “Bring Your Own Access” program from America Online
®
(AOL), which lets you use AOL through broadband provided by
another cable or DSL service
• Most online banking websites
• Many commercial websites that require a user name and
password to access your account
Secure connections can be interrupted by a computer’s power
management setting, which causes it to “go to sleep.” The simplest
solution to avoid this is to simply reconnect by rerunning the VPN or
AOL software, or by re-logging into the secure website.
A second alternative is to change your computer’s power management
settings so it does not go to sleep; however, this may not be appropriate
for portable computers. To change your power management setting
under Windows, see the “Power Options” item in the Control Panel.
If you continue to have difficulty with Secure Connection, VPNs, and
AOL, please review steps 1–4 on pages 2–3 to be sure you have
addressed these issues.
These guidelines should allow you to cover the maximum possible area
with your wireless router. For more information regarding our networking
