Wireless Network Configuration
For a wireless connection, the SSID (also known as the wireless network name) and the wireless
security settings need to be the same for the router and wireless computers or wireless
adapters. NETGEAR strongly recommends that you use wireless security.
The router is preconfigured with WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK mixed mode and uses a unique SSID
and passphrase. This information is printed on the label on the bottom of the router. Use this
information to setup your WiFi computer and devices.
This chapter incudes the following sections:

Note:
Computers can connect wirelessly at a range of several hundred
feet. If you do not use wireless security, this can allow others outside
your immediate area to access your network.
