Implementing Appropriate Wireless Security
Unlike wired network data, your wireless data transmissions can extend beyond your walls and
can be received by anyone with a compatible adapter. For this reason, use the security features of
your wireless equipment. The wireless router provides highly effective security features, which are
covered in detail in the full reference manual that is available from a link on the CD as well as a
link in the main menu of your Product Family. Follow the instructions in the full manual and in the
Product Family help screens to implement the security features appropriate to your needs.
Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11g or 802.11n wireless networks at a range
of over 300 feet. Such distances can allow for others outside of your immediate area to
access your network.
