GETTING STARTED

At the next screen you will be invited to change your network name and password. Re-using your previous network name (SSID) and password makes connecting your existing devices to the new router much easier.

If you decide to change these settings, then enter the new values and click “Save and Continue.” (Note: The password must be at least 8 characters long.)

If you changed your network name and password, make note of it on the service card located on the foot of the Router. You will then have to connect to the new network.
