wireless networks in your area. When the
SSID
(Service Set Identifier) of your Cable
Modem/Router wireless network appears in the list—the default SSID is
ZOOM
—select it (or
the SSID you created) as the network you want to use to connect to the Internet. (The default
security mode is WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK. If you have disabled security (described in the section
Disabling Security
), you do not need to enter the Pre-Shared Key; skip step 2 and proceed to
step 3.)
Tip!
For most wireless adapters, you will use its wireless configuration manager software and click a
Scan
button or select a
Site Scan
,
Scan Networks
, or other similarly named tab to do a site
search. If you need help, refer to the documentation that came with your wireless adapter.
There are several site scan issues you should be aware of:
¾
Windows 7, XP, and Vista users:
If you installed a wireless adapter on a Windows 7, XP,
or Vista computer, Windows may try to automatically configure the adapter (rather than let
you use the software provided with the wireless adapter). You will know this is happening
because you will be prompted with a message about one or more wireless networks being
available. You will also be able to click a link to open the
Wireless Network Connection
Properties
dialog box. If this happens, click the link, clear the
Use Windows to configure
my wireless network settings
check box, and then click
OK
. You can then use the
software provided with your wireless adapter without interruption from Windows.
¾
More than one wireless network may appear in the list. These are other wireless networks
that are within range of your network. Your neighbors, for instance, may be within range of
your network. Each wireless network has a channel associated with it. We recommend there
be at least a five-channel difference between your network and those of your neighbors.
Having less than a five-channel difference may result in interference with your connection.
By default, the Cable Modem/Router uses channel 10. If you need to change this channel,
you must do so using the
Wireless Setup
page of the
Zoom Configuration Manager
. For
instructions on how to log in to the
Zoom Configuration Manager
, see page 13. Then see
Chapter 8
for instructions on how to access the Wireless Setup page to change the channel.

When asked for a Passphrase, enter the default
Pre-Shared Key
(which is
zoom####
where
####
represents the last 4 characters of the Cable MAC address of the unit, which can
be found on the label on the bottom of the cable modem/router) or enter the Pre-Shared Key
you created if you changed it from the default. If you set up WEP security, enter the WEP Key.
3
Test your wireless connections. From each desktop or notebook computer that you set up, open
your Web browser (for instance, Internet Explorer or Firefox) and try to connect to a familiar
Web address.
If you connect successfully, you are ready to browse the Web!
