WiFi Setup using the Configuration Manager
Use this section only if you want to keep your current network name and
password and for some reason you can’t use the App.
We strongly suggest that you do this by using the MotoManage App
mentioned above. If that’s not possible, please continue below.
Please note that if your previous network name was 5 or less characters
or the wireless password was 7 or less characters, you cannot change
the Motorola password to match your previous network.
If possible, connect a computer with Ethernet to any of your
modem/router’s Ethernet ports. You can also do this configuration
using WiFi by using your smartphone or another WiFi device that has a
Web browser.

Now write down the wireless network name and password for your
original network. Most WiFi devices work on either the 2.4 GHz
band, or both the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz band. You may have a
wireless network name and password for just the 2.4 GHz band; or
you may have a wireless network name and password for both the
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

If you haven’t already logged into the Configuration Manager, follow
the steps in the section above labeled Configuration Manager to do
so.
If you need to do this WiFi setup by using your smartphone or
other WiFi device, first connect your WiFi device to your new
modem/router using the wireless network name (SSID) and
password printed on the modem/router’s bottom label. (You don’t
need an Internet connection to do this.)
