1.5 Setup Requirements

To set up your wireless network, you need a computer that meets

the following system requirements:

• Ethernet RJ-45 (LAN) port (10Base-T/100Base-TX/

1000BaseTX)

• IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac wireless capability

• An installed TCP/IP service

• Web browser such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or

Google Chrome

NOTES:

• If your computer does not have built-in wireless capabilities, you may

install an IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac WLAN adapter to your computer to

connect to the network.

• With its dual band technology, your wireless router supports 2.4GHz

and 5GHz wireless signals simultaneously.This allows you to do

Internet-related activities such as Internet surﬁng or reading/writing

e-mail messages using the 2.4GHz band while simultaneously

streaming high-deﬁnition audio/video ﬁles such as movies or music

using the 5GHz band.

• If you are using only one computer with single band

IEEE 802.11b/g/n WLAN adapter, you will only be able to use the

2.4GHz band.

• If you are using only one computer with dual band

IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac WLAN adapter, you will be able to use the

2.4GHz or 5GHz band.

• If you are using two computers with both

IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac WLAN adapters, you will be able to use both

2.4GHz and 5GHz bands simultaneously.

• The Ethernet RJ-45 cables that will be used to connect the network

devices should not exceed 100 meters.
