Installation and Configuration of the NB604N

Placement of your NB604N

The wireless connection between your NB604N and your WiFi devices will be stronger the closer your connected devices are to your NB604N. Your wireless connection and performance will degrade as the distance between your NB604N and connected devices increases. This may or may not be directly noticeable, and is greatly affected by the individual installation environment.

If you have concerns about your network’s performance that might be related to range or obstruction factors, try moving the computer to a position between three to five meters from the NB604N in order to see if distance is the problem.

Please note: While some of the items listed below can affect network performance, they will not prohibit your wireless network from functioning; if you are concerned that your network is not operating at its maximum effectiveness, this checklist may help.

If you experience difficulties connecting wirelessly between your WiFi Devices and your NB604N, please try the following steps:

 In multi-storey homes, place the NB604N on a floor that is as close to the centre of the home as possible. This may mean placing the NB604N on an upper floor.

 Try not to place the NB604N near a cordless telephone that operates at the same radio frequency as the NB604N

(2.4GHz).

Avoid obstacles and interference

Avoid placing your NB604N near devices that may emit radio “noise,” such as microwave ovens. Dense objects that can inhibit wireless communication include:

 Refrigerators

 Washers and/or dryers

 Metal cabinets

 Large aquariums

 Metallic-based, UV-tinted windows

 If your wireless signal seems weak in some spots, make sure that objects such as those listed above are not blocking the signal’s path (between your devices and the NB604N).

Cordless Phones

If the performance of your wireless network is impaired after considering the above issues, and you have a cordless phone:

 Try moving cordless phones away from your NB604N and your wireless-enabled computers.

 Unplug and remove the battery from any cordless phone that operates on the 2.4GHz band (check manufacturer’s information). If this fixes the problem, your phone may be interfering with the NB604N.

 If your phone supports channel selection, change the channel on the phone to the farthest channel from your wireless network. For example, change the phone to channel 1 and move your NB604N to channel 11. See your phone’s user manual for detailed instructions.

 If necessary, consider switching to a 900MHz or 5GHz cordless phone.

Choose the “Quietest” Channel for your Wireless Network

In locations where homes or offices are close together, such as apartment buildings or office complexes, there may be wireless networks nearby that can conflict with your wireless network. Use the Site Survey capabilities found in the Wireless Utility of your wireless adapter to locate any other wireless networks that are available (see your wireless adapter’s user manual), and switch your

Router and computers to a channel as far away from other networks as possible.

Experiment with more than one of the available channels, in order to find the clearest connection and avoid interference from neighbouring cordless phones or other wireless devices.

Quality of Service allows certain applications to gain priority over other applications in where a continuous flow of data packets is required. For example if someone is talking on a VoIP call and someone else starts downloading a large file the VoIP call traffic will gain priority over the download so they VoIP call will go uninterrupted.

QoS gives you the capability to specify the level of priority to be provided for specific applications. By default, QoS is not enabled.

After enabling QoS, select the appropriate default DSCP mark from the dropdown menu to apply to network traffic.

DNS

DNS Server

DNS (Domain Name System) is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Because domain names are alphabetic, they are easier to remember. However, the Internet is based on IP addresses. Therefore, each time you type a domain name, a DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP address.

For example, the domain name www.example.com might translate to 198.105.232.4. The DNS system consists of a network of

DNS servers. If one DNS server does not know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another one and so on until the correct IP address is returned.

If you select the Enable Automatic Assigned DNS checkbox in your WAN service connection, the router will receive and use the

DNS Server assigned by your ISP. The DNS Server configuration page enables you to select which configured WAN Service DNS option will be used.

To use your preferred DNS servers instead, enable the ‘Use the following Static DNS IP Address’ option and enter in the IP address of your Primary DNS server. Adding a Secondary DNS server is optional.

Click Apply/Save to save the new DNS Server Configuration settings.
