Wireless (Wi-Fi) Network Setup

The 2247-N8 Wi-Fi Gateway has a default network "name," or SSID (ser-
vice set identifier). The 2247-N8 broadcasts this unique network name
so that wireless computers and other devices can detect it. The default
network name is “moto” followed by the last four digits of the 2247-N8’s
serial number.

With the 2247-N8 installed and on, use the following steps to add
devices to the wireless network.

TIP:

Because your computer detects the strongest wireless networks

first, position it close (within 10 feet) to the 2247-N8, if you can, to ensure
that you are connecting to your 2247-N8.

1. Connect your primary computer to the 2247-N8 wireless network.

Click the wireless tray icon, open the wireless settings panel, or click
the AirPort menu (depending on your operating system).

2. Find the network ID for your 2247-N8 in the wireless networks list

and connect your computer to the network. If you have difficulty
connecting to the network, refer to the detailed instructions in

“Add-

ing Devices to the Wireless Network”

on page 110.

3. When prompted for the Wi-Fi network access key, type the numbers

printed on the “Device Access Code” sticker on the bottom of the
2247-N8 as your key or password.
