Note:
The preset SSID and password are uniquely generated for every
device to protect and maximize your wireless security.
Best practice is not change your preset security settings
.
If you do decide to change
your preset security settings, make a note of the new settings and store it in a safe place.
If you use a wireless computer to change the wireless network name (SSID) or other wireless
security settings, you are disconnected when you click the Apply button. To avoid this
problem, use a computer with a wired connection to access the gateway.
To view or change basic wireless settings:
1.

Set up and test your wireless devices and computers to make sure that they can connect
wirelessly. If they do not, check the following:
•
Is your wireless device or computer connected to your network or another wireless
network in your area? Some wireless devices automatically connect to the first open
network (without wireless security) that they discover.
•
Does your wireless device or computer appear on the Network Map screen? If it does,
it is connected to the network.
•
If you are not sure what the network name (SSID) or password is, look on the label on
your gateway.
