Getting to Know Your Wireless Router 1

Getting to Know Your Wireless Router

Congratulations on your purchase of a NETGEAR® high-speed wireless router, the N300

Wireless Router Model WNR2000v3.

Before you begin installing your router, check the package contents (see “Unpacking Your New

Router” on page 1). Become familiar with the front and back panels of your router—especially the

status lights—and the important information on the router label (see “Hardware Features” on

page 3). Then, read the section on “Positioning Your Wireless Router” on page 6 to ensure that

you have selected the best location to install your router.

Unpacking Your New Router

Your product package should contain the following items:

• The N300 Wireless Router

• A snap-on stand for your wireless router

• An AC power adapter (varies by region)

• A yellow Ethernet cable

• NETGEAR Installation Guide

• The Resource CD, which includes:

– The NETGEAR genie™ Installation Assistant (Autorun.exe)

– A PDF version of this manual

– A link to the online documentation.

If any of the parts are incorrect, missing, or damaged, contact your NETGEAR dealer. Keep the

carton, including the original packing materials, in case you need to return the product for repair.

Getting to Know Your Wireless Router 2

To prepare your router for installation:

1. Carefully peel off the protective film covering both sides of your router (see Figure 1).

2. Set up your wireless router by inserting the tabs of the stand (supplied with your router) into

the slots on the bottom of your router as shown in Figure 2. Then, remove the protective film

covering the status light panel of the router.

3. Place your router in a suitable area for installation (near an AC power outlet and accessible to

the Ethernet cables for your wired computers).

Figure 1

Figure 2

To ensure proper heat dissipation and for router stability, it is important that you

connect the stand and place your router in an upright position.

Router Label

The label on the back of the wireless router shows the router’s MAC address, serial number,

security PIN, and factory default login information.

1. The ports on the router are color-coded to distinguish your Internet port from the other four

ports that connect to the wired computer(s) on your Local Area Network (LAN).

Positioning Your Wireless Router

The wireless router lets you access your network from virtually anywhere within the operating

range of your wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless

connection can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your router. For

example, the thickness and number of walls the wireless signal must pass through might limit the

range. For best results, place your router:

• Near the center of the area where your computers and other devices will operate, preferably

within line of sight to your wireless devices.

• Accessible to an AC power outlet and near Ethernet cables for wired computers.

• In an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings between

the wireless router and your other devices to a minimum.

• Away from electrical devices which are potential sources of interference, such as ceiling fans,

home security systems, microwaves, or the base for a cordless phone.

• Away from any large metal surfaces, such as a solid metal door or aluminum studs. Large

expanses of other materials such as glass, insulated walls, fish tanks, mirrors, brick, and

concrete can also affect your wireless signal.

Figure 5

Failure to follow these guidelines can result in significant performance degradation

or an inability to wirelessly connect to the Internet.
