Preset Wireless Security
The wireless modem router comes with preset security. This means that the Wi-Fi network
name (SSID), passphrase, and security option (encryption protocol) are preset in the factory.
You can find the preset SSID and passphrase on the bottom of the unit.
• Wi-Fi network name (SSID) identifies your network so devices can find it.
• Passphrase controls access to your network. Devices that know the SSID and the
passphrase can find your wireless network and connect.
Note: The preset SSID and passphrase are uniquely generated for every
device to protect and maximize your wireless security.
• Security option is the type of security protocol applied to your wireless network. The
security protocol in force encrypts data transmissions and ensures that only trusted
devices receive authorization to connect to your network. The preset security option is
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK mixed mode, described in
Wireless Security Options on page 20.
The Wireless Settings screen lets you view and change the preset security settings.
However, NETGEAR recommends that you 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 where you can easily find it.
For information on how to connect additional devices to your wireless network, see Push 'N'
Connect (WPS) Method on page 28.
Plan Your Wireless Network
For compliance and compatibility between similar products in your area, the operating
channel and region must be set correctly.
To configure the wireless network, you can either specify the wireless settings, or you can
use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to automatically set the SSID and implement WPA/WPA2
security.
To manually configure the wireless settings, have the following information on hand:
- SSID. The default SSID for the wireless modem router is printed on the label on the
bottom of the unit.
- The wireless mode (80.211n, 802.11g, or 802.11b) that each wireless adapter
supports.
- Wireless security option. To successfully implement wireless security, check each
wireless adapter to determine which wireless security option it supports.
