Configuring the Wireless Access Point
Enable the wireless access point
By default the wireless access point is disabled. To enable the wireless access point:
1.In Watcher, select Tools > Options > MP > Wireless Access Point > Current and enter the current password. (The default password is MP3G.)
2.Select Tools > Options > MP > Wireless Access Point.
3.Under Configuration, select the Enable Wireless Access Point field and from the drop‐down menu, select Yes.
4.If you want to change more settings, proceed to the appro‐ priate sections. Otherwise click OK to automatically reset the modem.
Set the SSID
Note: If you want to use Watcher to configure the SSID and security settings, connect the modem to the laptop via an Ethernet cable. Once the MP modem is configured, you can remove the Ethernet cable.
The SSID is the name of the network that appears in the list of computer network settings. The default SSID is in the format MPxxxW‐FSN, where xxx is the model number and FSN is the factory serial number.
For example, MP 875W‐B452927000310.
There is no need to change the SSID, but you can if desired. If you have more than one MP modem and you are changing the SSID, be sure to assign a unique SSID to each MP modem.
To change the SSID:
1.Unlock the MP modem configuration. In Watcher, select
Tools > Options > Wireless Access Point > Password > Current and enter the current password. (The default password is
MP3G.)
2.Select Tools > Options > MP > Wireless Access Point.
3.Under Configuration, select the SSID / Network Name field and type in the desired SSID.
4.If you want to change more settings, proceed to the appro‐ priate sections. Otherwise click OK to automatically reset the modem.
