Thank you for your purchase of the NETGEAR Trek N300 Travel
Router and Range Extender PR2000.
Whether you use the Internet in the home or on the go (or both), the
Trek is your solution to a better Internet experience.
Connect on the Go
The Trek gives you the means to connect to the Internet while away
from home.
Do you want to connect your devices to the Internet at a WiFi
hotspot? Connect your Trek to the WiFi hotspot and then connect
your devices to your Trek. The Trek’s firewall protects your personal
devices from known DoS attacks and port scans from the Internet.
For more information, see WiFi Connection at a Public Hotspot Setup
on page 8.
Connect in the Home
The Trek provides you with the means to extend and expand the
home network that you already have with your existing Internet
connection. Use the Trek for any of the following situations:
4
•Add a WiFi router to your home network.
Do you want to connect your wireless devices to your network?
Convert your home network into a home WiFi network. For more
information, see Internet Connection at Home Setup on page 12.
•Extend the range of your home WiFi network.
Do you want to use your wireless devices at a greater distance
from your WiFi router? Extend the range of your WiFi router with
a WiFi range extender. For more information, see WiFi Range
Extender Setup on page 10.
•Bridge the distance to your Internet-ready TV.
Is your Internet-ready TV or other Ethernet-enabled device too far
from your router for an Ethernet cable connection? Bridge the
distance with a WiFi bridge. Examples of Ethernet-enabled
devices include an Internet-ready TV, Blu-ray player, gaming
console, and desktop or laptop computer. For more information,
see WiFi Bridge Setup on page 14.
