Specify Basic WiFi Settings
The router comes with preset security. This means that the WiFi network name (SSID), network key
(password), and security option (encryption protocol) are preset in the factory. You can find the preset SSID
and password on the label on the router.
The preset SSID and password are uniquely generated for every device to protect
and maximize your WiFi security.
Note
If you 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.
If your computer is connected with WiFi when you change the SSID or other WiFi 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 router.
