same Wi-Fi network name and security settings. Verizon recommends that you use wireless
security.
Your router is preset with security features and uses a unique Wi-Fi network name and
password. This information is printed on the router label and will be used to set up your Wi-Fi
capable computers, smartphones and tablets.
