Attach the Stand

For optimal wireless network performance, use the stand (included in the package) to

position your access point upright.

To attach the stand:

1. Orient your access point vertically.

Hardware Setup

N750 Wireless Dual Band GigabitAccess Point WNDR4300-TN

2. Insert the tabs of the stand into the slots on the bottom of your access point as shown.

Position Your Access Point

The access point lets you access your network from 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 access point. For

example, the thickness and number of walls the wireless signal passes through can limit the

range. For best results, place your access point in a location that follows these guidelines:

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

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 access point and your other devices to a minimum.

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

fans, home security systems, microwaves, computers, or the base of a cordless phone or

2.4 GHz 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.

1. Connect the Ethernet cable to your gateway.

2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports on the access point.

Internet

3. Plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet.

4. Plug the other end of the power cable into the access point.

Verify the Cabling

Verify that your access point is cabled correctly by checking the access point LEDs. Turn on

the access point by pressing the On/Off button on the back.

•The Power LED lights amber when the access point is turned on.

•The LAN port LEDs light green for each computer cabled to the access point.

•The 2.4 GHz LED is lit, and the 5.0 GHz LED is lit.

Verify that the LAN LEDs (1 through 4) are lit for any computers cabled to the access

point by an Ethernet cable.

Note: The preset SSID (WiFi network name) and preset WiFi password for

your access point are unique. This information is on the label on

your access point.
