Changing the password
In the first step of the assistant the password for the user interface can be changed. On
delivery, the configuration of your Gigaset SE366 WLAN is protected with the admin
password. To prevent unauthorised changes to the configuration, you should set your
own password and change this password from time to time.
When using WPS please note the following:
Your Gigaset SE366 WLAN is equipped with
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). You can use
it to set the security of your wireless network easily with one click only (see page 13).
An SSID and a pre-shared key are created automatically by pressing the Registration
button on the device’s back panel (see page 20), thus allowing synchronisation of the
WPS-enabled clients.
You can inspect the defined settings in the Security Setup Wizard (see page 37 and
page 39) or in the Advanced Settings (see page 70).
