54 Mbps Wireless Router WGR614v8 User Manual
Troubleshooting 7-11
v1.1, May 2008
1. Select Wireless Settings under Setup in the main menu of the WGR614v8 router.
2. For the wireless network name (SSID), use the default name, or choose a suitable descriptive
name. In the Name (SSID) field, you can enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
The default SSID is NETGEAR.
3. Select the region in which the wireless interface will operate.
4. Set the channel. The default channel is Auto.
This field determines which operating frequency is used. It should not be necessary to change
the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems with another nearby wireless
router or access point. Select a channel that is not being used by any other wireless networks
within several hundred feet of your router. For more information about the wireless channel
frequencies, click the link to the online document “Wireless Networking Basics” in
Appendix B.
5. Set the mode to b and g.

Note: The SSID is case-sensitive; NETGEAR is not the same as nETgear. Also, the
SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you specify in the
Wireless-G Router. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection
to the Wireless-G Router.
