Preset Wireless Security, Support, WPS Method

Preset Wireless Security

This product has a unique Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and network key (password). The default SSID and password are uniquely generated for every device (like a serial number), to protect and maximize your wireless security. This information is on the product label on the router.

NETGEAR recommends that you do not change the preset SSID or password. If you do change the settings, the information on the bottom of the product does not apply.

Find the preset Wireless Settings on your router and record them here:

Wi-Fi network name (SSID) _______________________________

Network key (password) _________________________________

If you change the preset wireless settings, record them here:

Wireless network name (SSID) _______________________________

Network key (password) _____________________________________

If necessary to retrieve or update your password, type http://www.routerlogin.net in a web browser and log in using the default user name (admin) and password (password).

Select Wireless Settings to locate your wireless password.

Connect Wireless Devices to Your Router

Choose either the manual or Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) method to add wireless computers, and other devices to your wireless network.

Manual Method

1.Open the software utility that manages your wireless connections on the wireless device that you want to connect to your router (iPhone, laptop, computer, gaming device).

This utility scans for all wireless networks in your area.

2.Look for the preset NETGEAR wireless network name (SSID), and select it.

The preset Wi-Fi network name (SSID) is located on the product label on the router.

Note: If you changed the name of your network during the setup process, look for that network name.

3.Enter the preset password (or your custom password if you changed it), and click Connect.

4.Repeat steps 1–3 to add other wireless devices.

WPS Method

If your wireless device supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)—NETGEAR calls this method Push 'N' Connect—you might be prompted to press the WPS button on the router instead of entering a password. If this happens:

1.Press the WPS button on the router.

2.Within two minutes, press the WPS button on the client device, or follow the WPS instructions that came with your wireless device to complete the WPS process.

The device will then be connected to your router.

3.Repeat this process to add other WPS wireless devices.

Note: WPS does not support WEP security. If you try to connect a WEP client to your network using WPS, it does not work.
