There are times it may seem, the learning curve in this technologically advanced information age, like a mountain. Once you overcome an obstacle or peak, and you think you're the smartest man in the world, another task will be to yourself and the medicine cabinet for another blood pressure tablet. I thought it would be a good idea, I have had the experience of the Internet to search for a new laptop at the home of a friend with a modem and a documentWi-Fi router. The reason for this is that I like to have someone earlier had the same experience documented for me. Would certainly have some 'time.

The Netgear RangeMax Wireless-N Gigabit Router WNR3500 is a beautiful piece of equipment. I used the hardware to connect to an entire house to the Internet. wireless router to any home network that combines wireless and wired network connections. It 'been used before with the operating system Windows XPterminal with a satellite modem ipStar Icon Series. Installation was easy, because all I had to do was install the software and follow the instructions. It 'was a piece of cake.

I was working with a newly acquired eMachines E727 laptop. I tried to use the same connection to the router with wireless access to the Windows 7 Home Edition operating system. I tried to install the software with the CD version 2.0, I have the router, but the error message I received said that Ihad a compatibility problem with the Windows version I ran. I spent a lot of valuable search Google for a software update to resolve the compatibility issue. I had no luck, and so as a last resort, I contacted the 'Netgear' Support number.

It 's a good idea to confirm that indeed an internet connection so I originally connected an Ethernet cable from the modem to the RJ45 Ethernet port on the laptop. Once access to broadband Internet has confirmed that it was relatedthe laptop to the modem via the router. The modem is connected to the router via an Ethernet cable from the modem to access the yellow dot marked "Internet" on the router. I have another Ethernet cable from the output port of a router to the RJ45 Ethernet port on the laptop.

In the lower right corner of the laptop's internet connection beside the speaker icon. When I moved the mouse over the icon showed an old name for the connection to the Internet. It was thereforerequired to access the router to change settings. This was achieved by entering 192.168.1.1 in the browser window.

The default values are for the Netgear WNR3500;

Username: admin

Under "Setup", go to "Wireless Settings". Go to the "Wireless Network".

Go to the "Name (SSID)" box and delete the previous value voice. Enter a new name in the box, "the name (SSID)" with a name you recognize. This value could be something as simple asYour family name. It can be a value of your choice and up to 32 alphanumeric characters. It 'important to remember that this "Name (SSID) to all wireless devices must be networked and that this value is case sensitive.

Go to the "Region" and select the region from the dropdown list.

Go to the "Channel", which determines the operating frequency can be used. I joined Channel 11

Go to the "Mode" and select the desired wireless mode.The default is "up to 145 Mbps, which is how friendly neighbor.

In "Security Options" I use "WPA-PSK [TKIP]". This is an acronym for Wi-Fi Protected Access with Pre-Shared Key. Use WPA-PSK with TKIP encryption type standard. This is purely a bit 'of useless information for the department of useless information.

At the bottom of the page under "Security Options (WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK) Passphrase, type a word or group of printable characters in the Password field. L 'Passphrase can be 8 to 63 characters must. Use something that you remember easily. If you do not think of anything, use your cell phone number.

Click "Apply" to save the changes to take effect and update the router. If the router has been updated on the Internet icon back into the bottom right of the page and the left mouse button. You must install the "Name (SSID)" as a new connection to the Internet. If all goes according to plan, you can remove the cable and surf the Internet, WirelessStyle. It 'the only way to go!
