About GoFlex Satellite™ Wi-Fi Security

Since your GoFlex Satellite device is a wireless broadcasting device, it can be “seen” by any Wi-Fi device within its range (up to 45 meters/147 feet).

You can set a password to restrict access to your GoFlex Satellite device. See “Setting a Password” on page 28 to restrict access to your GoFlex Satellite device.

Tip: Remember that when you have your GoFlex Satellite device physically connected to your computer, wireless is disabled; your files are not visible to others.
