Basic Configuration

The Wireless Router ships with a basic factory default configuration that should allow you
to immediately access the Internet after installing the hardware according to the User’s
Guide.

If you need to modify the Wireless Router's default basic settings, or if you want to
configure advanced settings, refer to the appropriate instructions in this document.

As a minimum, it is recommended that you:

Change the default login password

Change the default wireless network name, also called the Service Set Identifier (SSID)

Wireless LAN Default Security Setting: The Wireless Router ships with
wireless LAN security set by default. See the security label on the product for
the factory security settings: network name (SSID), encryption method,
network key, and WPS PIN.

If you need to modify the Wireless Router’s default wireless security settings, or if you want
to configure any other settings, refer to the appropriate instructions in this document.

Note: You must set up the computer and other client devices to work with the security

settings on the Wireless Router. Refer to the documentation for the client device for instructions on
setting security. If the computer or client device supports Wi-Fi Alliance WPS (Wireless Protected
Setup), activate WPS on the computer or client device and the Wireless Router simultaneously to
easily set up the system security.

Accessing the Configuration Interface

1. If security has been properly set up on the computer to access the wireless LAN on the

connection between the computer and the Wireless Router.
