2. The default screen will be Wi-Fi settings. The settings listed for both 2.4GHz
and 5GHz networks are as follows:
SSID Enable – Enable/Disable this SSID. Default is on.
Network Name (SSID) – Choose the name of your network. Default value is
the same as displayed on the rear label.
SSID Broadcast – When un-checked, this option allows you to hide your
network from appearing when searching for Wi-Fi networks on your
devices. You can still access this network, but must use the hidden
network option on the device you are trying to connect.
Security Type – Choose WPA-Personal, WPA-Enterprise, or No Password. We
recommend not operating your HT2000W without a Wi-Fi password.
Default is WPA-Personal.
WPA Mode – Choose WPA mode. WPA2 by default, some legacy devices only
support WPA, you can change this to WPA/WPA2 for such devices.
Cipher Suite – This cannot be changed, but is to inform you of the cipher suite
being used.
Pre-shared Key – This is your Wi-Fi password. This will overwrite the default
password on the rear label.

access to other network resources. By default, these are disabled.

both bands if you wish.
